Modern lamps have light-sensitive photocells to turn them on at dusk and off at dawn, or activate automatically in dark weather. Back in the day, parents and their kids would use street lights as a curfew monitor. When the street light turned on, it was time to go inside. It was safer then to play outside with your neighborhood friends and not have to drive across the city to get to somebody's house. Kids were allowed to go blocks away from their house and when the street lights came on, it was a tacit rule for everyone to get back to their houses because it was getting late. Today, the crime rate is ridiculous and it's not possible to be outside of your house with a bunch of little kids until dusk. Back in the good ol' days, perverts, pedafiles, and rapists were not nearly as popular and as threatening as they are today. It's ashame that our generation can't manage to score with people their own age and that are actually willing to be with them and so they result to violence or kidnapping.

Remember when singers were allowed to get high and not be frowned upon for doing so
Bob Marley was probably the biggest crackhead of his time, but he had probable cause. Many people do not know that Marley was fighting with cancer. In July 1977, Marley was found to have acral lentiginous melanoma, a form of malignant melanoma, in a football wound on his right big toe. Marley refused amputation, because of the Rastafari belief that the body must be "whole". The cancer then metastasized to Marley's brain, lungs, liver, and stomach. As a result, Bob Marley looked to weed and bongs as a way to escape his pain and live freely for the amount of time that he had left on earth.
