Shaggie those dimentions are in hundreths of an inch. It's just barely a
decent sized bud.

Last time I checked, 956 hundredths of an inch is about 9.5 inches and
672 hundredths of an inch is almost 7 inches... So we're talking a
little over 26 cubic inches of "stuff" here. If it was a cube then it
would be 3 inches long on each side. That is one HELLUVA bud.

Right front tire is mounted wrong. The tread pattern on it is
backwards. That would make for some interesting handling. :-)

..956 is 956 THOUSANDTHS of an inch. 956 HUNDREDTHS of an inch is over
9 inches. One hundredth of an inch is one part out of 100 parts of an
inch. 956 hundredths of an inch is 956 parts out of 100 parts of an
inch. Over 9 inches long. If I said 6 tenths of an inch then that is
..6 inches. If I said 60 tenths of an inch, that's 6 inches. It's
like an improper fraction, with the numerator larger than the
denominator. See? Yes, that's one damn big-assed bud, Cheech. :-D
