I use my phone for conversation and that's all! :confused1:
I have the ability to access the web on my phone, text message and I choose not to do so. :wave:
If something important has to be said, I will call a person...
And I am with you, I actually HATE talking on the phone. Mine is used for work and emergencies. :sad1:
Crack cocaine and powder cocaine are derived from the same drug and, according to the National Institute on Drug Abuse, have the same effects on the brain and nervous system.Politicians passed laws hugely over-criminalizing possession of small quantities of crack and then selectively enforced them:
More than 80% of the defendants sentenced for federal crack cocaine offenses are African American, despite the fact that more than 66% of crack users are white or Hispanic.
***crack vs coke***
the Journal of American Medical Association also released a study (http://jama.ama-assn.org/cgi/content/abstract/276/19/1580) that disputed the notion that crack cocaine was more chemically addictive than the powder version.
There's no doubt that drugs contribute to the downward spiral of poor urban areas, but I really don't think that the situation would be any different if crack had never come into prominence. There are plenty of other highly addictive and destructive drugs, including cocaine, methamphetamine and other uppers, and heroin. I challenge you to give compelling evidence that crack itself is to blame for poor urban neighborhoods.
Crack is the drug of choice in that situation due to its cheapness. If it was unavailable, they'd potentially have to spend a bit more on a different drug, but the same abuse would occur.Quote from: [url=http://bitchkittie.blogspot.com/2007/11/crack-myths-die-hard.htmlnewscat[/url]]the Journal of American Medical Association also released a study (http://jama.ama-assn.org/cgi/content/abstract/276/19/1580) that disputed the notion that crack cocaine was more chemically addictive than the powder version.
Hint: your personal, anecdotal experience with one neighborhood does not a compelling argument make
NO PROBLEM-I KNOW IT IS LONG-BUT KNOWLEDGE IS POWER!
Augusta is still not a statistically significant sample size. We're arguing semantics since neither of us have provided proof that crack itself is the cause of urban degradation. But really, you have to examine the reason that they're turning to drugs in the first place...
Hehe I made my own ringtone :PMe too ! I love making my own so I can have w/e I want and not have to pay for it!
I swear i found this on CBSnews.comNo. 4: You Can Break Your *bleep*
There is no "*bleep* bone," but you can break your *bleep* all the same. It's called penile fracture, and it's not a subtle injury. When it happens, there's "an audible pop or snap," Montague says. Then the *bleep* turns black and blue. And there's terrible pain.
did anyone here about the manta ray that jumped into somebody's boat and killed the lady?Yes I did! That was so crazy!
You gotta love their persistance in trying to rip someone's bank account off.
Heh. I have sort of a morbid sense of humor.
Gotta admit though, that scam has been around for over a decade.
now i did find one that was funny, it said looking to trade, my 17 yr old, he has a bad mouth talks back and doesn't listen, he has trashed my home, car, and furniture so any of those trades considered. any new home must have financial means to support a pot smoking teen who eats all your food and steals your money if interested please respond via craigslist. now that was funny
Man Finds $140,000, Turns It In To Cops
Man Finds $140,000, Turns It In To Cops
LONG BEACH, Calif., April 10, 2008
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(CBS/AP) It was a tempting sight for struggling landscaper Eli Estrada: a bag filled with $140,000 on a Cerritos street.
There was his credit card debt, upcoming wedding and making ends meet with his artificial grass and landscaping business.
But turning it over to Long Beach police last month was the right thing to do, he said.
The 40-year-old Estrada admits that some days "I think I was nuts," but he adds, "I know in my gut that to keep that money would be wrong."
The Bank of America money bag was lost March 11 by Brinks Armored truck drivers. The unmarked $20 bills were bundled into wads of $20,000 and bound for ATMs.
Long Beach police Sgt. Dina Zapalski said Estrada handed over the money bag to an officer who took a report at one of the landscaper's job sites.
Zapalski said she had never heard of someone turning in so much cash.
"I've had people come to me with purses and wallets with cash in it and they'll turn it in," Zapalski told the Los Angeles Times. "But not like this."
Brinks later gave him a $2,000 reward.
"They should have given him 10 percent," Estrada's mother told the Times.
*...the Lord must know im crooked as hell, and thats why i never find such things..cuz i wouldnt have turned in shyt*...
