Is that any way to run a railroad?

I ask you, is it?

Because it's fun?

I would have some horrible reaction, either physically or mentally, or both for that matter.

That having been said, when I hear people describe the feeling of heroin, I always think it sounds pretty great. Which is exactly why I'd never try it.
That's my feeling too. I've tried acid, shrooms & I smoke pot often but I would never try coke, heroin, meth, etc because I know myself. I'd become addicted & end up dead. I could've tried coke years ago with some friends, they were doing it right in front of me. I didn't care that they were, they offered me some & I said no. So regardless if it became legal, I still wouldn't try that or the other drugs.

Any time you ingest a foreign substance other than necessary for maintenance of life will result in nasty things over time. All the burnouts in CO will find out to their detriment.

Good for you. Make sure your health insurance is paid up so the tax payer won't have to foot your medical bills when that garbage catches up to you.

Reporting from Colorado - All is well.
I'd like you to tell the patrons of our neighborhood shop that they're burnouts.
Owner's polling of opening day line revealed:
• Iraq / Afghanistan vets
• Senior citizens from the nearby retirement home
• Investment banker
• Retired school teacher
• Auto mechanic
• House painter
• Young couple[s]
• IT head-hunter
• Lockheed Martin engineer
• University of Denver alumni relations
• and on and on and on......

Keep believing your own bs. Weed > alcohol
