How to Celebrate National Arkansas Day?🌎🚬🚭

Every January 11th

Arkansas Grass

When I saw that today was 'National Arkansas Day' I remembered a song I heard on the radio a lot growing up in the early 70s called 'Arkansas Grass', which I always assumed was a hippy song about smoking weed from Arkansas:-)

Turns out that an Aussie band called 'Axiom' wrote it, and it was a coded anti-Vietnam song recorded in 1969.

It's also 'Cigarettes Are Hazardous to Your Health Day', which I imagine includes herbal ones, too?

I used to catch catfish in the Brisbane River all the time when I was a kid fishing from the bank of the river near my Nan's place, but my father always told me to throw them back in the river, because you couldn't eat them ... but it looks like you can.

Although, in hindsight, I'm glad that I never caught any so called "edible" fish in that part of the river:-)

If I ever visit Arkansas in the future, I'm trying the catfish.

Now, where did I put that old fishing rod of mine?-)
