    Question For the Boys

    A huge bush is just nasty. A good trim is all it takes to go from nasty to hot. Doesn't even have to be a close trim, just neat.

  3. Umm...based on the pics on the site, I don't think any of you could remember Michael Alig and his crazy club scene. Unless you were clubbing when you were 9.
  4. You do know what yup stands for, right? young urban professional. So....nyc is filled with young ppl who live in the city and work? Hmmm...yeah, I agree with you. Now go crawl back into your hole.
  5. LOL Talk about eagle eyes! That's some close inspection goin on.
  6. Bozer, yur an idiot. The rest of you have good points. But I think this goes beyond what you are saying. e.g., it wasn't always known that smoking causes lung cancer. I bet some poor guy got lung cancer 30 years after he started smoking and that's what started it all. Who knows...5-10-15-20 years from now what this stuff will do? I'm not sure how many test cases are out there that have experiments that have lasted that long. E has been around for a long time, but this is something that has become a widespread thing for only the past decade. So I wouldn't try and justify anyone's abuse of the drug simply because Peter Jennings gave a more informative report. Know what you are doing, learn how it is affecting you and always control intake through moderation or abstinence. Some of you might think "who cares if I take 8 pills tonight" or "who cares if I take 4 a week". But guess what...I don't know any person who has seriously abused any substance, legal or illegal, that didn't regret it at some point in their lives.

  8. American and Canadian Officials Bust Drug Ring Network Supplied 15 Percent of Ecstasy Smuggled Into U.S., Officials Say By CURT ANDERSON, AP WASHINGTON (March 31) - A U.S.-Canadian drug trafficking ring believed responsible for 15 percent of all the Ecstasy smuggled into America has been wiped out, authorities said Wednesday. They announced arrests and criminal charges against 170 people. At its height, the ring distributed 1 million Ecstasy tablets per month in the two countries and laundered $5 million a month using travel agencies and bank transfers in the United States and Vietnam, officials said. Drug Enforcement Administration chief Karen Tandy said the two-year investigation culminated in the arrests of nearly the entire trafficking operation, from leaders to couriers. ''We wiped out this entire organization,'' Tandy said at a news conference. Ecstasy, or MDMA, is a synthetic controlled substance known originally as a ''club drug'' because of its popularity at gatherings called ''raves'' and dance clubs. It has spread to high schools and colleges, with an estimated 3.2 million people using the drug in 2002, according to the DEA. It was once thought of as a harmless drug. But research has found that prolonged, heavy use of Ecstasy can cause confusion, depression, anxiety, aggressive and impulsive behavior, and memory loss, according to the National Institute on Drug Abuse. Its popularity has caught the attention of an increasing range of criminal enterprises, largely because of the big profits. Pills sold at about $4 apiece wholesale in the operation typically cost $15 to $20 each on the street. The organization targeted by U.S. and Canadian authorities consisted largely of people with Asian backgrounds, according to court documents. The alleged ringleaders were Ze Wai Wong, 46, a Chinese citizen, and Mai Phuong Le, 38, a Vietnamese citizen. Wong was arrested in Toronto and Le in Ottawa. They operated three labs in Canada, which were discovered and dismantled in August, authorities said. The pills often were smuggled across the U.S. border or inside Canada in compartments within vehicle gas tanks, making the drugs hard to detect, particularly for drug-sniffing dogs. The Supreme Court on Tuesday unanimously ruled that government agents have broad authority to search and even dismantle vehicle gas tanks to combat smuggling at U.S. borders. The ring also used hidden gas tank compartments to transport cash. In one instance, the search of a vehicle headed for Canada in Burlington, Vt., yielded $750,000 in U.S. currency concealed in the compartment. Authorities said the Wong-Le organization differs from previous Ecstasy trafficking groups because it is the first known to have manufactured the pills on a large scale in North America. The main sources of Ecstasy previously have been the Netherlands and Belgium. These methods, said Deputy Attorney General James Comey, are ''a signal to us that, as we feared, the profits available in Ecstasy are attracting new traffickers and new ways of trafficking.'' U.S. and Canadian charging documents accuse Wong of leading a drug distribution ring in 18 U.S. cities and Canada and contend that Le orchestrated the laundering of drug money for the operation. They and the others are charged with a lengthy list of counts including conspiracy to distribute Ecstasy and operating a continuing criminal enterprise. The organization also trafficked in Canadian-grown marijuana, known as ''BC Bud,'' and was involved in identity theft and other criminal enterprises, officials said. Raf Souccar, drug chief for the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, said eight marijuana-growing operations were shut down Wednesday in the Ottawa area. Of those charged in arrest warrants, about 145 had been arrested as of Wednesday afternoon. Arrest and search warrants were executed in 16 American cities, with Canadian authorities serving 50 arrest warrants in Ottawa, Toronto and Montreal. Arrests were made in these U.S. cities: Houston; Los Angeles; San Francisco; Oakland, Calif.; San Jose, Calif.; Jacksonville, Fla.; New Orleans; Baton Rouge, La.; Mobile, Ala.; New York; Boston; Atlanta; Alexandria, Va.; Des Moines, Iowa; Minneapolis and Salt Lake City.
  9. Looking to find a place that is more mainstream for a friends birthday party (not Webster Hall). It's not my kinda thing but its for a birthday party so I figure a place where the music is a little more mainstream would be good for all. Any recommendations would be appeciated. Thanks!
  10. Why don't you just upload it somewhere so ppl can download it? That's what I used to do when I made cds. Not the easiest thing to do but its the best way to spread your work.
  11. Too many things going on that weekend!
