pupoljci (marihuane) Explanation: Izgleda da niste jedini u nedoumici. Prenosim samo jedno od miljenja sa http://www.vocaboly.com/forums/ftopic429.html: What are "colitas"? It seems to translate as "little tips" or "buds" - presumably of the marijuana plant (Cannabis sativa) - where the tetrahydrocannabinol is most concentrated. Druga miljenja moete npr. naći na http://www.everything2.com/index.pl?node=Hotel California |

little buds Explanation: http://www.straightdope.com/classics/a5_001 -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr 14 mins (2005-02-09 21:41:23 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- This E-mail just in from Eagles management honcho Irving Azoff: \"In response to your [recent] memo, in 1976, during the writing of the song \'Hotel California\' by Messrs. Henley and Frey, the word `colitas\' was translated for them by their Mexican-American road manager as \'little buds.\' You have obviously already done the necessary extrapolation. Thank you for your inquiry.\" Reference: http://www.straightdope.com/classics/a5_001 |
