'Heart Of Gold'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
And even if they were, I'm not sure how this is diagnostically useful.
Could come into play in the non-drug treatment of migraines. Part of the biofeedback stuff I did was definitely aimed at making the sufferer less high-strung to mitigate pain (not my problem, precisely).
Does anybody listen to Diane Rehm? She has a guest on now discussing the drug epidemic, and while I'm down with the "Drugs are bad, mmkay?" thing, there's sort of a neo-prohibitionist thing that's rubbing me the wrong way. I mean are schools "riddled with drugs"? Really? I understand they might be a problem in some schools, but our schools are riddled with drugs?
There's nothing you can do, Allyson.
It is gorgeous out, and I just ran the best errands ever. I got: generic Claritin; cards including "Grandmother, even though I never call, I still love you," and "Happy 40th Anniversary, parents!"; forever stamps PLUS cash back at the post office; and lunch. They offered me free soup, but who wants hot soup when it's hot out? Not me.
No, Daisy. It's hysteria.
Yeah, I have to say -- my high school was fairly riddled with drugs, and it wasn't such a big deal.
I'm thinking the traffic and closures from the mountain burning down are sort of equivalent to 4 feet of snow and the plows still haven't hit your neighborhood. Sure, you could ski in. If you were insane.
I knew of no drug use (besides alcohol) in my high school. After I graduated, I learned that a few people I knew smoked pot.
Drugs were something only the "burnouts" did....
I grew up in a suburb of LA before Nancy told us to just say no.
It's fair to say there were a few drugs around, but it never seemed like a big deal.
Yeah. I drank some in High School, but mostly after I turned 18. I didn't smoke until I was 18, and never did any other drugs. I've tried one or two things, but mostly they disagree with me.
I'm also thinking that surveying kids is not a good way to gather your statistics.
People did drugs in my high school, but because it was the "good" high school in the affluent neighborhood, the community at large didn't think it happened. Imagine the shock and outrage of the community when there was a big drug bust. Of course, it was coke, so there was much drama about that.
