My associate and I walked into The\nHouse of Dank, a Reedsport pot shop, the original Reedsport pot shop.\nShe wanted to load up for her Oregon sojourn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We entered an old building that seemed\nspent. The streets and sidewalks around it were torn up for some\nReedsport beautification project. They might better beautify\nReedsport if they removed all the Trump chainsaw sculptures littering\nthe downtown. But leave the one with his tiny penis. \n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We struck up a conversation with the\ntwo pot purveyors. They gave us the lowdown on the building and the\npot business in Reedsport. The building was once a bank, whorehouse\nand Chinese restaurant. A cannabis chain had invaded Reedsport in\nrecent months and was employing the Wal-Mart strategy: slash prices,\nincur losses, wait, and then put the independent, locally-owned\nretailer out of business. I asked the purveyors if they thought their\nregulars would stay loyal. They thought they would.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
They won’t.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
My associate delighted in the House of\nDank’s funky product line and the sheer preposterousness of the\nshop’s name. She went whole hog and maxed her limit. But there were\ntwo of us so I \u201cbought\u201d my max limit, too. I asked if they\noffered a senior discount. They did\u201410%. I said I just turned 55.\nDid I qualify? Yes, I did. It was the first time I’d ever asked for a\nsenior discount and the occasion was buying pot in Reedsport’s House\nof Dank with a woman who was in love with Oregon and had just seen\nelk and sheets of rain. \n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As a crazy, drunk man once told me in\nan Oregon campground, \u201cDon’t get no more Oregon than that.\u201d \n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Actually it did, after she got stoned\nand we saw a river otter run across the highway and dive into a\nflooded pasture. \n<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
