Is meth any different from the amphetamines (speed) we learned about in Health class in the 80's?

No. Meth is another slang term for it. So is crank.

eta: Drugs seem to have resurgences in popularity every so often.

The thing is, I swear no one told us about the teeth rotting thing in the 80's! That is why I have been confused. But thanks guys.

I keep wondering when someone is going to think I abuse him.

From what I can tell, he decided that the flower vase on the counter was evil, and needed to be destroyed, and then examined and walked through.

Thankfully Puppycat only thinks flowers are kitty snacks and thus loves vases as if they were chalices.

I hope he heals up easy.

yes it is. Wikipedia says it's similar, but does not go into why it's different.

I hope he's better soon! Amarna has a love of knocking things off of shelves/tables/hutches, especially if she's bored and wants attention (she doesn't seem to do it when I'm not around). Last night, it was one of the computer speakers that she shoved off the computer hutch, and I'm afraid she might go after one of the vases that I have up there next.

Yes!

MADISON, Wisconsin (AP) -- The Wiccan pentacle has been added to the list of emblems allowed in national cemeteries and on government-issued headstones of fallen soldiers, according to a settlement announced Monday.

About bloody time.

I hope he's better soon!

Thanks (to Cass too). He should be. He always is. I thought this was out of his reach, but I guess I was wrong.

Cool.

I really love that the article included this:

Wicca is a nature-based religion based on respect for the earth, nature and the cycle of the seasons. Variations of the pentacle not accepted by Wiccans have been used in horror movies as a sign of the devil.

because so many people have NO CLUE what wicca really is and think that they worship Satan. I love that people suspend disbelief that Jason rises from the dead 13 times, but assume that the use of a symbol with five points in a circle means satan in real life.

Joe Francis doesn't like jail very much. Bwahahahahaha!

Bwahahahahaha!

This will never be unfunny.

Joe Francis is reportedly going crazy in jail -- literally -- under the withering verbal assault of a convicted cop killer who's going wild, taunting Francis day and night with shouts of "Girls Gone Wild! Joe Francis! Whoo!"

Hee!
