Wrong word
I'm no expert, but "ingestion" is entirely the wrong word to use.—Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.233.132.57 (talk • contribs) 05:06, May 4, 2005 (UTC)
Merge?
Head shop should definitely not be merged with the article on Smart Shop. Smart shops are stores(primarily in the Netherlands) that sell drugs whereas head shops sell drug paraphernalia under a legal guise.—Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.232.102.33 (talk • contribs) 02:50, July 7, 2006 (UTC)
Etymology
The name "Head Shop" came from the stores owned by Jeffrey Glick in Greenwich Village in the mid 1960s
Actually, there is a little bit more to your answer. The name Head Shop came from the "Zebra's Head" (head shop) in Denton, Texas on the corner of Fry & Hickory in the 1960's. Several folks followed the hippie movement from Denton (and the rest of the country) to San Fran; and folling that -- Jeffrey Glick in Greenwich Village. We were calling the Zebra's Head our "HEADSHOP" in 1964 as we smoked grass behind it in the alley all year round.129.120.56.9 (talk) 16:16, 21 January 2009 (UTC)LST
