Oh, come on! How else do you combat boredom on the Island for that long?

HA! Why people are actually brought up on charges for this I'll never know.

me neither. OH NOES, THE MARIJUANA!! i could think of a LOT worse things people can do to themselves and others... legally!

But you young ones don't understand. It is Mary Ann.
Pure, sweet innocent girl next door. It is not Ginger for petes sake. lol
Seriously, 69 years old. Grow up.

 

[scotrace]

Yeah... she was a darling. I liked her better than Ginger.

But still - what a waste of time and pointless humiliation for all concerned.

 

[Foofoogal]

My post was less about the pot and more about vintage Mary Ann.
The only step that would be more shocking would be Gidget.

Opie is our only hero. lol
Have to keep some memories pristine.

 

[LizzieMaine]

What's really shocking is that Mary Ann is the same age as my mother. For some reason I find that terribly terribly disturbing.

I dunno, it will probably be good for her career. I don't do drugs, but pot doesn't seem too threatening these days. I drive most of the day and I see people smoking it on the freeways all the time, it's probably safer than using a cell phone while driving.

"Tell me where do they go, those smoke rings...?"

Mary Ann does Mary Jane. Big deal. Let he/she who never took a toke cast the first stone. AARP is full of old "Hippies!"

 

[Foofoogal]

I toked my share in my stupid years but like I said she is 69 for petes sake.
Nothing more pathetic than old hippies IMHO.
I loved Gilligans island and Mary Ann and still do.

Foofoogal, I don't want to ruin it for you but I think BR549 does a song about smoking pot with Opie by the duckpond...

*Throws stone.*

 

[Mr. Lucky]

Bong hits with Mary Ann... Oh, the possibilities! Oh, right, I gave it all up seventeen years ago. But still...with Mary Ann in those little shorts...mmmm...on the beach...with a pizza...

 

[Foofoogal]

smoking pot with Opie

oh, pooh. lol

Time flies......

 

[ShortClara]

You know, if my parents (in their 60s) were smoking a doobie once in a while, I'd get a real kick out of it! They drink, so why not? I bet they'd have fun!

 

[KY Gentleman]

Who among us haven't had something we wouldn't want THE WORLD to know?
Cut her some slack, she's MARY ANN for petes sakes!!!

 

[Viper Man]

Maybe it's medicinal. She may have scored it from the professor. [huh]

 

[Doh!]

Well, no wonder Gilligan was such a huge fan of her "coconut" pies.

My mom gets splitting migraines that can have her at bed rest for days at a time. I offered her some *good* pot one day, and about once a month she'll smoke a bowl. Hasn't had a migraine since. She's almost 60. It's actually a riot to see her smoke.

I agree, still can't believe people get busted for this. I bet Tina Louise gave it to her.

Lolita, I am with you, I will cast a stone. As for the question, why not? Number one is because it is against the law for crying out loud. For those who bothered to read the entire article, she was driving erratically ("According to the sheriff's office report, Gutierrez pulled Wells over after noticing her swerve and repeatedly speed up and slow down"). It saddens me to hear of her trouble, but she made her choice, now she can deal with the results. After all, life is about choices for all of us, including aged stars.
