Steve Jobs introduces the latest and greatest in bong technology, the recreational and scientific marvel, the AppleBong. It has more features than an iPhone and might just be more revolutionary.

We're having a G420 Tweedup tonight starting at 7PM ET / 4PM PT!  Tweedup?  What's that?

Let's all share the best parts of 420 together...get totally faced and tweet along with us during G4's 420 shows tonight and let us know how you're doin'! How YOU doin'?

Plus, and this is best part, we'll be broadcasting a exclusive twitter-only movie commentary from Doug Benson himself throughout the 10PM ET / 7PM PT showing of Super High Me

Here's how to join in and follow along:

  • Watch G4's 420 Shows and include "G420" somewhere in your tweet. That way, we'll all see it!
     
  • You could simply watch G4 while relaxing in front of our G420 Twitterfountain, seen above.  It plays the latest tweets marked with 'G420', and let's you see what's going on in the Tweedup! After 3 minutes, it reloads and starts over. Go full screen, if you want...play with the settings.  You can't mess it up, just reload the page to reset it..
     
  • This one is real easy! G420's TweetChat is works just like a chat room, only it's on Twitter! Sign in using your own Twitter login and that's it!
     
  • Power-Twitterers tend to prefer Tweetdeck. If you're familiar with it, start a search panel for "G420".  Then it works basically the same as the TweetChat.

HAPPY 420

The Best 420 Albums Ever
Posted By: Eugene Morton - Monday, April 20, 2009 3:12 PM

If part of your 420 celebration includes listening to some awesome, crunchy tunes, AOTB has got a brief list of the most awesome, exceedingly crunchy tunes for you to groove to while you're experiencing an altered state of consciousness. Give ear and get groovy, music lovers.

The Best 420 Albums EverPink Floyd - Dark Side of the Moon – I have listened to this album in its entirety probably over a thousand times. It’s one of those things that you can’t just listen to a song from it…you have to kind of experience the entire thing. I don’t put a lot of credence in the whole Wizard of Oz thing, because it’s mostly coincidence, so it’s not that. The album is so thick as to be nearly impenetrable, which is to say, there’s always something new in it that I can’t believe I never heard before. Also, the fact that it’s now 37 years old is completely astonishing to me. They shouldn’t have been able to make something this good that stands up for this long and sounds current no matter when you listen to it, but they did. - MD

Twiztid - Man's Myth, Vol. 1 - Whether you're the kind of stoner who likes to partake of the icky and think about aliens and government conspiracies, the type who likes to drift away into the atmosphere or the brand that smokes because you feel that cush enhances everything from video games to the horizontal mambo, I highly recommend Man's Myth, Vol. 1 from Twiztid. The album includes such classics as "So High," "Off the Chain" and "Karma." that you'll dig no matter what kind of smoker you are. - EM

Cypress Hill - Los Grandes Exitos En Espanol (The Spanish versions of their hit songs) - This album is great in English but if you're looking for something to really blow your mind while you're blowing your mind, it's this. - TC

'Pineapple Express' iPhone App
Posted By: Eugene Morton - Monday, April 20, 2009 2:50 PM

We take a look at the application for the iPhone that's based on the film, 'Pineapple Express.' It's intended for use in those times when you're experiencing an alternate state of consciousness and you need a little help with the little challenges life presents.

Cannabis Culture Down Under

Amsterdam Coffee Shop Tour
Posted By: Ty Colfax - Monday, April 20, 2009 7:14 AM
Amsterdam's liberal attitude toward drugs has created a subculture of coffeeshops and coffeeshop fans that chill out and eat magic treats or even blaze the cannabis without fearing the fuzz.

We'll meet Sissi Gil of Amnesia, Jason Den Enting, manager of DampKring, and Olaf Van Tulder who is the co-owner of the Green House Coffee Shop. Jealous much?

LA Dispensary Tour
Posted By: Eugene Morton - Monday, April 20, 2009 6:57 AM

Marijuana has been decriminalized in California for quite a while now, which means its legal if you have a prescription, but where do you go and how to you shop your prescription around once you've got it? Alison went on a tour and here's what she saw. It might just make you want to pack up everything you own and move to the west coast.

Chronic Con Advertisement
Posted By: Ty Colfax - Monday, April 20, 2009 4:17 AM

Good morning, 420ers!

Sometimes you find something on late night TV that's really worth showing the world. In this case, it's a little advertisement we snagged off our DVR from last night encouraging everyone who enjoys "marijuana cigarettes" to come to Chronic Con. I don't know though, something seems fishy about these guys.

 

 

And there's plenty more AOTB 420 goodies to come all day so check back regular-like and don't miss today's AOTS 420 special.

AOTS Video Classic: Olivia Cliff Dives in Jamaica
Posted By: Ty Colfax - Sunday, April 19, 2009 6:32 AM

For the 2008 AOTS 420 special, Olivia donned a bikini and jumped 30 some feet off a cliff in Jamaica. It's one of our more popular videos and has little to do with 420, but whatever, it's evergreen, so that counts for something.

Study Says Pot Better Than Ever!
Posted By: Frank Meyer - Wednesday, December 24, 2008 10:57 AM

According to new data from the University of Mississippi Potency Monitoring Project (which, by the way, is a gig I want!), the potency of marijuana has tripled since 1987.

The figures come from the Department of Justice's National Drug Intelligence Center’s 2009 National Drug Threat Assessment, which determines the figure by measuring by the presence of THC.
 
The Department of Justice attributed the steadily rising numbers to "increased demand for higher-potency marijuana and improvements in cultivation techniques."

Damn right!
