My guy is gone!
Y'know how if you do certain things sometimes that aren't exactly, uhm...well legal? Ya know, sometimes some people smoke some things that the govt doesn't really want 'em smoking? Well, do you know where those people get that stuff they smoke?
They get it from a guy they know. It's the only way. The only other way is to know a guy who knows a guy, but the whole reliability factor goes out the window and more variables come into play and it starts getting icky....so it's generally a good idea to find a guy you like who is good and stick with that guy. At least, that's me philosophy...and it's worked for me for a couple of decades now.
'Til yesterday.
I called my guy, and my guy's wife answered. (He wasn't married when I first knew him, but then again neither was I.  ) Told me my guy wasn't home, then realized it was me and told me the truth that my guy is on a brief vacation for rolling a stopsign and never clearing up some old outstanding warrants and he'll give me a call back in 30-90 days depending on how things go.
On the brightside, it's only for some old traffic stuff and I'm glad in a weird way since it will totally clean up his past. I had to do the same thing about 8 years ago hunting down old tickets & warrants and cleaning them up, but without serving time. (It helps if your the one coming to them to try and clean it up rather than waiting 'til they get a hold of you....but that's just luck on my part more than anything else.  ) On the downside, I couldn't get a hold of my guy!
So what do I do? Why, I call me other guy of course!
MORAL OF THE STORY: Always stick with your guy, but always know of another guy too and keep on friendlies.

Well you're my guy, so as long as you make correct stops I'll be all good.

I don't like booze, hang-overs suck and it takes away from control. I'll learn someday, and I ALWAYS make full stops and look both ways at all stop signs. After having my license suspended for about 11 years I tend not to take things like that for granted as much as some.

I second what Digi said..... I can't drink without puking for what seems like days after the fact.
I also prefer the fact that I can remain in control of my actions where I'm useless when drinking.....
I find that I don't get beat up for being obnoxious like friends I know that go out and get loaded.....Unless you try to raid my refridgerator, then it's a battle to the end
PS: reality is designed for those that can't handle drugs :-P
J/K of course

Not much anymore
I don't really do all that much any more, and very infrequently....it's just annoying when I want to and I can't.
