how about crystal meth?

[Marlow]

I'm a little old for this stuff, but I've heard a lot about crystal meth in the media recently. It's supposed to be the big new drug. The coke questions got me wondering, so I thought I'd ask the following:

Have you ever done crystal meth?

If yes, what did it feel like? Would you do it again?

If no, why not?

It's been the big new drug since about 1985. In the late 80's, everyone was doing it because it wasn't yet detectable in drug tests.

But it's made a resurgance of late.

This was on the cover of Newsweek a couple of weeks ago. Also, there's been a lot in the Boston media.

It never really wnet away. It was just overshadowed by other drugs in the media. I can tell you that in rural central missouri where a large percentage of the nations meth comes from oddly enough, the number of meth labs has never gone down. They bust about one a week, just enough to let the voters feel like they're actually doing something about it.

One of my high school classmates from north Arkansas recently died of heart failure, without a tooth in his head. He had been married to a woman a few years back who shared his passion for meth. Somehow they ran afoul of dealers (probably did up some front that was to be sold); pieces of her were found around the county for weeks. This guy died at 41. Nice drug.

Meth is just pure evil. It got around so much because people could easily make it at home and then sell it. You didn't have to import it like heroin or cocaine or go to all the trouble of planting, watering, and harvesting the stuff. All you had to do was go buy some easily obtainable chemicals, cook it, then sell it. During WW2 German soldiers were given a very powerful form of meth which has since been dubbed 'NaziMeth' and recipes for 'NaziMeth' are all over the place (yes including the web) and people who use it do things like stay up for 13 or 14 days without sleeping and scratch their own skin off with their fingernails. Meth, & Nazi meth are just about the most horrible drugs I can imagine.

Meth is right up there with sticking my head in a toaster oven on my list of things to do...

My head is too big for each.
