Sometimes the best teacher is time and effort.
Then there are otheres here that enjoy reading/learning and if you had something worth writing, a lot of us would find it worth reading.
I appreciate everyones views, facts, opinions, wrong or right on every subject. Even though I may or may not have anything to add, its valuble data to add to my brain.

But my adventures with drug use are largely contradictory to what is currently going on in the thread.
You see they started out good enough. A bunch of us from the same neighborhood all hanging out and smoking up. A good time was had by all. Then it got a little more serious when some quick math revealed that we could make a lot of money and smoke free weed. Then there were people trying to rip eachother off, debts accumulating, and least of all, attention from the cops.
But we knew what we were doing. We did our own independent studies, experimented with use, and had it all figured out. The problem was that after about 10 years of that shit, our perspectives and places in life had changed. We figured out how to use drugs but hadn’t figured out how to live a decent life. So a couple of us ended up in jail for a couple of beatdowns, and a few others just plain old died. Well to be more accurate- a couple of them got their heads blown off. One guy got chopped to peices and parts of him were found, and others weren’t. Of course a couple are still kicking in a languid state half life. Not realy alive, but not quite dead yet.
I feel prety fortunate. I’ve been there, done it and lived to tell about it, which is more than a lot of people will never have a chance to say.
So I’ve kind of held back on this and spared the gory details, cause my story has nothing to do with educating yourself on safe drug use, exercising some willpower, and getting a freaking babysitter.
For christ sake, a baby sitter. If someone had tried to tell us to cool it with our drug use, they would have been lit on fire and put out with a baseball bat.
And remenber- Always trust your drug dealer. They would never steer you wrong, always have your best interests in mind, and will not beat you into a hospital bed because you owe them a few bucks. They won’t shoot you either.
My story has to do with what happens when you think you have it under control. ;}
