It is a bit thick though.  Usually I order a hard cider or Harp.  And a good beer makes a great tenderizer for meat. [:)]

Well, at least we are #1 in something....

42% of Americans admit to have tried marijuana and 16% admit to cocaine use. These are the highest numbers in the world.

the US is also the most charitable nation in the world.  wonder if that could be related to how high so many of us allegedly are....


We also spend more on pet food and I`m sure that`s related to drug use....[;)]

Wonders why the rest of the world gets so uptight about a little partying and throws a spasm over Janet Jackson's nipple or Penthouse... what a bunch of repressed uptight prudes.[:D]

I think a lot of people lie on those polls.  I remember getting polled in high school about drug use.  I checked every drug on the list, whether I had tried them or not.  LOL.  However anytime I have ever been asked in a job interview if I have ever used drugs, my answer is always, "Absolutely not, sir/ma'am."  [:D]


LOL I went to Catholelick school and my girlfriend back then and I used to listen to Howard Stern (back when he was on 66 W-NNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN-B-C New York) or Doctor Ruth Westheimer just to get shit that we could confess! I think Jeannie may have been the one who caused Father Franks heart attack...

I have always been honest about drug use... I have smoked weed in HS and College and I would now if I wasnt subject to random testing for one of my contracts. When I was asked on my security clearance and Navy interviews I told the truth about it. Better to admit it, than to flunk a poly.

Ive done coke a couple of times with some buddies but it wasnt for me - although it is pretty popular among pilots....I didnt get much from it. I did speed LEGALLY in the Navy per the flight surgeon for "performance maintenence during continuous flight opetations" I didnt like that AT ALL. It made me crankly, paranoid, and nasty.

Funny thing though - my last gf had never tried pot and wanted to so I got some - FROM A COP! [:D] God, if I thought she was stupid sober high was just waaaaaaaaaaaay too beavis and butthead for me LOL

Until Bush's inflation destroyed the dollar, *very* high quality weed was perhaps Canada's more profitable export.

I really enjoyed seeing that New Zealand came in second on the list.  God bless those Kiwis finding something to do other than sheep.

teacherpet -> RE: Americans are world's top drug abusers (7/3/2008 7:56:03 AM)

What I found most interesting is that in the Netherlands, where you smoking pot is relatively legal and not frowned upon, only 20% have tried or used it. As someone who thinks it should be legalized (so many problems fixed if we do) that is fascinating. And I don't think it should be legalized because I use it, just that in free society we should be allowed to put whatever we want into our body. Besides, alcohol is much worse and we are okay with that.
