i guess, CTCF, that some people just have such empty lives that theyfind 'themselves' in the internet world, and it just mushrooms out of control from there...

I am lucky, even though back in the UK I go swimming all Summer(despite the polar sea temperatures and rock beaches), the sand/water here is lovely!its just the people that are a problem...

The traffic is becoming harder to avoid, like on the roads, in the towns, on the beach,yeh I had this fucker in a 4X4 pickup truck drive right onto the beach and to within 5 yards of the shoreline (6 yards to my left). when this ape and his mutant freak family got out and started setting up a BBQ i thought,' fuck this, its time for the swim', so i smoked my little beach joint then waded into the refreshing water, swam underneath for abit then popped my head back into human air, to be swarmed by a malicious gang of jetbikes. so yeh was weird idea of traffic, human/machine traffic, been inescapable....

when i finally get a mbike, i will start visitng some other beaches cos been restricted to the city sandy strips means that I am also restricted to the city people,........

but yeh, i alwasy been a man/boy/fish of the ocean, i think i could swim properly before mastering the ability to walk, tho id have to check that one with my dear old mother!

right now im living with my parents in a small apartment and although the house being built isnt my own its theres, im still going to have my own side of the house and its quite a large place. 5 bedroom house with a 3 car garage and 5 bathrooms. i have my own entrance and a large room. its also next to some really nice hiking trails which is rare in miami. within a year i will be studying somewhere in europes and when i get back i will be going to a university up north with my cousins but until then im looking foward to the new place.

crippler, im glad you seemed to be in rich vein of luck when the cop stopped you.maybe you done some wicked stuff some time in recent history and it was like a karmic payback of sorts??

as for driving/riding under the influence, I have tried to refrain from saying too much, cos though I hate drink drivers, as I know that alcohol definately impairs driving/riding ability (in fact so much when on a bike, that its crazy hard just to get balanced and moving- i think thats why there less drink riding accidents), i do frequently (maybe enjoy) riding mbikes whilst stoned. it definately seems to add something to the riding experience, like the connectiom between bike and human becomes stronger, as does my awareness of air/road conditions...

Anyway, the best part of your story is the fact that you had a good evening then a situation which coulda been far worse (for you), turned out fine. I would say that the police officer (unless the car was been driven in a manner dangerous to others) did a good job, as for sure there are worse crimes been committed which deserve more attention than stoners driving with a busted light at just over the limit..in fact id say wicked police work, as obviously he had to stop you for the speed break, but you were hardly tearing up the road..so yeh, on reflection i take my hat off to the copper, as im sure you do too, crippler...

Dan you and I both man. Allthough I'm sure your definition of an Mbike and mine are different. I ride dirtbikes and love getting just pie eyed and going out and jumping hills, doing wheelies, and racing around the backwoods. I mean its just such a rush going at 50 mph and not knowing what lays ahead on the trail. Especially when stoned.

Man o live after this piss test is over hello mary jane you will be ba. ck in my life sweetheart. To tell you the truth though smoking in the city is not as fun for me as smoking back home in the boonies. I love getting stoned and going fishing, or getting stoned and going on mile long nature walks with a trusty bag of green and my bowl at my side. It seems that the city is to industrialized to many people, to many corporations, and the attitude out her just really seems to bite. I feel home when I'm chilling outside with the people I know (taken from an OAR song) regardless maybe it s because I drank one to many or maybe its my lack of the sweat leaf but regardless I long for the peacefullness of my remote and rural home again.

On another note I kind of like this chilled out wg atmophere with most of our members gone. Its like I can type something without the fear of having someone else slander my posts. Ehh who knows...

[weedguru_animal]

yes CTCF, i know what you mean, at first the atmosphere seemed kinda gloomy, but now its turned to something a lot nicer; more welcoming/comforting. like the few of us who are here are at peace with each other, which makes for a nice feeling when logging on and clicking to work out how people are doing....

ive been driving for a year in may and have smoked since the day i passed, ive always wondered though how many police are equipped with drug testing equipment all the time, a friend just recently told me they can do things like get you to say the alphabet letters from h-r. im still unsure though and would like to know more cause its an automatic ban, then i'd have to resit my tests again, and the practical one i probably couldnt pass first time

[weedguru_animal]

im not sure of the exact equipment they use here, but my brother did warn me about drug driving tests, which are as common as drink driving checks i assume, as they do it al in one test or two maybe, not sure...

yeh in the UK i had no worries whatsoever about been stopped for drug riding, in fact despite my constantly stoned riding, i was stopped only once in my last year of riding, and that was when i was apparently hitting 70mph in a 40mph zone, on my way home to my mothers in kent..strangely, i was 'let off' by the copper who had 'more pressing matters' and perhaps some christmas spirit..
he left me with
'its xmas eve, its pouring with rain, youre on country roads and speeding like a lunatic, and your bag is halfway off your bike, use some common sense'

which, like in the incident with crippler, seems remarkakbly good police work...

[Dr. Greenthumb]

with smoking weed they look more for red eyes and the smell but when it comes to drinking in Florida the have something called the BATmobile(mobile blood alcohol test) they set up police blocks on the major roads and they have a bus set up to test you. they do it sometimes near the beach and on new years eve they had them set up all over the city.

[cutthecashflow]

In a few states in America (I know Minnesota for one) they have salivia tests that they use. They take something simialiar to a q-tip and take a dab of salivia out of your mouth then they stick it into a machine. This test can detect if someone has smoked within the last few hours.

[Zen]

Thatsounds pretty high tech theree ctcf. I didn't know weed byproducts could get stuck in your saliva . When I got pulled over for my last speeding t icket... the cop was a complete prick, insulting me by saying I didn't look old enough to drive even though my license was in his hand, and insulting my friend in the passenger seat in the same manner. then he got me out of my car and ask ed me to stand with my feet together close my eyes, tilt my head back and count to 20, it was his test to see if I was "under the influence of marajuana. I did this test exactly like he said but counted in my head instead of out loud because he asked me how I knew 20 seconds was up afterwards. Anyways, I didn't stumble or sway or anything and he still said I was stoned, but "let me off" with just a speeding ticket. It was the most bogus charge ever, but because of the fact that I was nervous and not used to dealin with such authority figures, I didn't know what to do. There was no way he could have pegged me with speeding, he just looked at me and decided to pull me over.

Son of a bitch.

Peace~

i got my first speeding ticket less than 2 weeks into passingn my test. such a guutter a) cause it cost me £60 and b) more than 6 ponits and im banned and have to resit my theory which means £20 + £40(for each practical test i need) anyways ive only got 3 points (touches wood), plus i got this massive lecutre of my parnetsa fter giving them a lift tonight (the fcuking cheek of it) oh well i love my cxar and my mam kindly cleaned it for, me topday. althouth adimitedly i could have to done better myself. anyways im expecting a decent sized argument in the morning plus a session where i get to fit new brake pads, yay! not. last but not least, hollyoaks omnibus, tommorow, fit birds.

haha, its this cheesey soap with a load of 18-30yr old fittys in.

[weedguru_animal]

i hated hollioaks. i used to say it was the worst soap id ever seen, certainly in terms of plot/acting, but it has been surpassed by neighbours now, since harold went pyscho and started knocking people down and hiding them in the coffee shops cellar/fridge/cupboard/pond...
i remember hollioaks as been mainly blonde haired bimboes with one feisty brunette...
light entertainment i suppose, and yeh i now seen worse...
in short, i'd never reccomend it to anybody i liked.

[Weedguru_RyaNayR]

I ran from a cop once, he never saw my face. I was smoking out in the forest and I looked to my left and saw a cop looking around and I just grabbed my shit and jetted, dodging through the woods.
