I have Narcan in my office and in my Truck.
Police cars all carry it and most have defibrillators.
Open air drug use is very common and most mornings at work I get to clear the doorways of folks stoned….
Sometimes it’s just a bottle of wine and food stolen from grocery stores… other times the dime bags or zip lock bags of MJ are laying in the open.
I have always, always said no to anything stronger than pot all my life, and particularly anything that came in a pill.
So many opportunities to try cocaine and now at 75, sure not going to start.
smart folks should worry whether they might just like it too much.
Since I had alcoholism in my family, I knew better. Most addictions are like a
tar baby,
you get close in and you get stuck. (
metaphor for a sticky and worsening situation)
I think like in life we all have to make lines we just won't cross.
it's really like the hot stove warning. How many times do you have to put your hand
on the burner til you figure out that's an absolute no no.
Was a psych minor in college, always fascinating why folks do what they do.
now just what motivates you to do something that stupid?
I was a local volunteer fireman in my small town for many years.
Carried all sorts of stuff in the trunk to help people.
I guess now the current standard is Narcan.
makes me want to study the Good Samaritan clause for PA...
drive safely and defensively and be careful in public settings.
marijuana smells bad, don't know anyone who likes that smell, maybe that's why vaping
has become so popular. My hvac repair guy, older fellow, was constantly vaping while working on my unit
in the basement. Zero smell. Have no idea what he was sucking on.
He was sharp and diagnosed multiple burned out components, had the parts, and back running in two hours.
you can't be stoned and accomplish that. So I'm guessing a tobacco product.
I'm a lifelong nonsmoker so having him vape in my basement was a little odd
