Down to 226 pounds. I can see my abdominal muscles.

Sometimes I rattle the cage and beat my head uselessly against its bars, but sometimes, I can shake one loose and use it as a dildo.

Aneristic Illusions / Re: So, RWHN, it appears your predictions of doom are contradicted

That would have been a very strange thing for them to teach at a high school in WA.
And really, you'll have to forgive us all for naturally assuming that you're lying about almost everything. It's pretty rare that you ACTUALLY back up even the simplest of claims.
Clearly, I stand corrected about some policy wonk shit.

You aren't very good at reading social cues are you?
Remember, kids, if you do drugs you too might end up as one of RWHN's sociological experiments.
I mean, CU was just as much of an untethered asshole but even he wasn't a complete raving megalomaniac.

...I think that if you want to prevent drug use, you ought to not be focused so much on keeping the penalties against use intact, but giving people a reason for not using -a reward.
You focus on the stick, from what I have seen so far.
From what I can tell it's the carrot-positive opportunities to work towards-that keep people off drugs.
This thread on an internet message board has been focused on the discussion of legalization. It is representative of precisely that, a discussion, and not my job. A job where I certainly do employ strength-based strategies to give kids positive alternatives to drugs, to build refusal skills, to engage and empower them to not need chemicals for fake strength. I do all these things. But it isn't either/or. I can do these with the substance still illegal, because the law itself isn't prevention, but lifting the ban on marijuana will create more access which is just not an acceptible move.
It's like one of LMNO's satires of corporate-speak, only it's not satire. I've got $5 that says those are lines and phrases lifted word-for-word from some textbook that RWHN probably re-reads every month or so.
Seriously, you guys want to kill this thread just when it's starting to have some value? Fuck that noise.

Way I see it, convincing 2 out of more than a dozen people to adopt your position (even though we all know that's not what really happened) doesn't speak all that well of your testimonial abilities.
This whole post speaks to how ignorant you are of the legislative process in Maine. The two co-sponsors who voted against it were the ONLY co-sponsors of the bill on the committee that had the bill. The committee only has 13 lawmakers on it. Only 13 lawmakers had a vote. Only two of them were co-sponsors. And they both flipped. We don't need the rest of them to flip, because the bill is fucking dead. Is this sinking in?
You keep on yammering, and the sources that contain the facts you're trying to yammer about all say different things than you do. Is this sinking in?
here, I'll just quote the relevant text from the page that Nigel linked to:

Morrison was a hack and a jerkoff. Manzarek and Krieger didn't like him at all.
And for fuck's sake, you can't even stop yourself from making shitty puns in a eulogy thread for a musician you supposedly respect. I mean, why are you even here? I think facebook is more your speed.

Yes, we can tell that you're super successful because kids aren't doing drugs anymore.

That's funny, because IIRC you were still working in retail and going to school when I met you. And I only met you because you were already on this site.

Well we'll never know since you won't give us a link. And it's not like we have any reason to take your word for anything, since you're a known liar.

He's probably afraid that we'll realize that he isn't mentioned at all, especially since he knows I already know his first name.

Monday is day 3 of my 4 day work week. So I get my balls-out busy as fuck shitshow days out of the way right up front. Monday marks the beginning of the downhill coast to my 3 day weekend. Plus I can usually actually find parking near work.

Link, please.
Gerzofsky, one of the Committee chairs, and Lajoie were two of the 35 co-sponsors of the bill. They both ended up voting against it.
That's not a link. I'd like to see what amendments and riders were added and when.
Google. I'm not linking you to the site for the bill because it would provide easy access to personal information I'd rather not have easily accessible from this site.
Like what, your name?
Hate to break it to you, genius, but any of us could find that anytime we want anyway. So you'll have to find another way to weasel out of backing up your ridiculous claims.
