<Shades, from what I've read of your views on relationships with women, she made a good decision. I doubt she died. > I am most certain she did not die that day unless maybe a tree fell on her and recently happened to a few in palm beach, but I feel her crack habit probably caught up with her not too much later - hehe. Crack always seems to have a way of leading the best of people into situations they should avoid - hehe. I reading now that 60K people could die in new orleans if the Katrina hit right - I hate for that to happen - the culture of that area make for great movies like dennis quaid and ellen barkin make - loss of people is loss of culture. <It's not a selfish attitude that she showed, it was a survival attitude, which is quite a different thing.> You are wrong about SURVIVAL attitude. See its like this - inside the flood zone hurricane winds and falling trees was her dealer who had the candy she wanted to feast on, inside my ride was just safety and warmth - not her crack candy - so I always lose out - hehe. I used to have a psychiatrist friend in Atlanta I sold much computer stuff too - one day he talks to me and my computer mates - he is moving to a bigger office because of his expanding practice and we are moving his computer stuff to the new place - he is holding an issue of "high times" and popping a few oxycontins - he says shades - drugs are power - I make many millions a year flying all over the world analyzing the rich and famous - but all you need in this world is the ability to dole out a few of the right kinds of pills and you can have anything you want - those millions I make are NOTHING compared to my power to write prescriptions of drugs - hehe. He went on to describe how several women you probably know from the hollywood movies would not sleep with him for his many millions or PHD or wit or charm or humor or anything else you may HOPE they would, but if he wrote scrips for the right kind of drugs - they slob all over his knob. Why would they do this mqurice? His knob probably stinky and have much disease on it. He went on to say shades - it never changes - they dug up mummies from a society thousands of years old and they found cocaine in the corpses - its all circular Mqurice. Redundant. alternet.org Well, truth is, freedom in Afghanistan continues to be on more of a stoned-out stumble than a brisk march. The Taliban has been driven from Kabul, but it still exists in the countryside, and the bulk of the country is still run, de facto, by competing warlords dependent on the opium trade – which now accounts for 60 percent of the Afghan economy. "The fear that Afghanistan might degenerate into a narco-state is slowly becoming a reality," said the executive director of the United Nations' Office on Drugs and Crime, Antonio Maria Costa. "Opium cultivation, which has spread like wildfire ... could ultimately incinerate everything: democracy, reconstruction and stability." Costa's office has just released a slew of discouraging numbers that lay out in numbing detail how Afghanistan's opium production has soared in the last year to an all-time high. The raw form of heroin is now the staple crop in every province, while in just one year the area under poppy cultivation has increased 64%. The country produces 87 percent of the world's opium, and one out of 10 Afghans is employed by the illicit industry, according to the alarming U.N. report. Of course, brandishing quotes from the U.N. doesn't sit well with isolationist yahoos. So, for them, here are highlights from the White House's own Office of National Drug Control Policy report, which Friday painted an even darker picture: "Current [Afghan opium] cultivation levels equate to a ... 239 percent increase in the poppy crop and a 73 percent increase in potential opium production over 2003 estimates" – a sixfold increase in the three years since the Taliban was driven from Kabul. < It's odd that you thought it selfish. What did you miss out on that you thought her selfish? > Saving her - I tried to give her lift - hurricane was to make touchdown soon - mayor had ordered evacuation of the city - she just happened to be outside walking next to my ride. You really must not see the underside of society like I do - self preservation is irrelevant to the new drug culture - people would throw themselves and thier babies and YOU off the side of a cliff if it would get them the next heroin hit or crack crunch. Several people in palm beach area of florida just died - they were walking around out in the hurricane katrina and the trees fell on them and killed them - they should have been inside preserving thier safety - what could they have been looking for makes them go outside in life threatening hurricane - hmmm - what was it shades told you make people throw themselves and thier baby off da cliff? Even throw sweet mqurice off da cliff? <I hope you offered the spare seat to a bloke who needed a ride since she didn't want it.> Actually I already had a bloke in one of the seats - my cousin - they were who I went to stay with to get away from fla - hehe - girl - she was cute - so I told bloke he was gonna have to let her sit in his lap if she got in. His wife was in one of the other seats - she did not like my sense of humor and was already stressed feeling she was about to die in natural catastrophe - some people - too streesed - need to relax - hehe. I guess its like this, the titanic is going down, some people scream and holler in panic, some people play the piano and have fun til the grim reaper came. After our ordeal and her many hours of fussing and stressing the rest of us (i was very angry because I could not hear phil collins coming in the air tonight song because of her constant raving and fussing) - I told her to go fugg herself and I would never come see her again - hehe - she said GOOD! HAHAHAHA! I wonder if the mayor has put ban on the radio for phil collings song - it was playing last year during last hurricane - that DJ he was so funny! HAHA - he crack me up.
