  • I used to have an issue with the movie in my teenage years where I thought people were being exploited. I watched it again on DVD and in the extras there was a short doc from the late 90’s ~ early 2k and while maybe it was propaganda my mind was changed a bit. It really was a wholesome comedy. There are a few jokes that may have adults laughing and fly over a young child’s head. I was always left with a positive view of the native actors and their culture. If anything it shows how a person should remain humble and do the right thing while not acting like the people from the world.







  • Well, it is never a convenient time. You wind up missing a day of work and they give ( at least in my state) the potential juror $20 for your trouble. I never get picked and have a hard time staying awake throughout the day.

    There is definitely a great responsibility involved and I answer the questioning truthfully so I have never get selected by both the prosecution and the defense.

    I had a friend who went through something similar. It kind of came from nowhere ( from my perspective, he seemed fine up until that point but he lives in another town and we really only talked via phone and text ). One day he called me out of the blue from an unknown # and needed a ride from a location that was very strange to me. I won’t get into the details but he needed help. After I picked him up I was able to get him around some of his family members and we convinced him to go to a hospital. He stayed for a few days and things eventually smoothed out. That was a couple years ago.

    He eventually got on the right meds and everything is fine. He said it did take a few tries to get the correct medication.

    I asked him how he felt when it was happening and he said it must have been going on for a long time and built up to that day. He was smoking a lot of thc, and that seemed to be the trigger for an underlying issue.

    It’s good that you are aware and will be seeking help. There is nothing wrong with that and it’s the right thing to do. I’m wishing you luck ✌️

    I hope others can respond with their personal experiences to help ease you through this !



  • I too have enjoyed many ground scores over the years. Only once did i toss it. I think I found ~ a gram of some really shitty shake and bake meth. Not big on meth and it just looked foul. Just glad someone else didn’t pick it up.

    One of the craziest was finding an 1/8th of fire coke on my birthday after having to work a double. I was so mad all day after realizing we were going to be stuck on a job to get a building back in service on my birthday. I pulled into a 7-11 to get a drink and when I opened the car door and looked down I could not believe my eyes. I looked around the parking lot , did a big yawn and stretch then bent down to tie my shoe expecting at any minute someone was going to say hey man that’s mine. Grabbed it, hoped back in the truck and slowly drove home.

    The gods must be crazy!
