Title: Drug of the Oughts?
Post by: on October 08, 2005, 08:58:00 am
Each decade has had it's own new high.
 
 In the sixties there was weed.
 In the seventies there was coke.
 In the eighties there was crack.
 And in the nineties there was ecstasy.
 
 
 So what's the drug of the oughts?

Ephedrine.  Pretty much you crush up Sudafed or other such drugs with ether and some other scary chemicals and boom you have Ephedrine.  Speed.

Ephedrine  is the basis for many different decongestants and was widely used in diet pills in the form ephedra, and in many OTC stimulants (Max alert etc).
 
 Methamphetamine can be produced by reducing ephedrine or pseudoephedrine.  Since ephedrine is used in decongestants you can start with something like sudafed, extract the ephedrine and move on from there.  
 
 Many companies are moving to other things than ephedrine for their otc meds because of the stigma that has been attached to it.  In some places Oregon, Iowa and Oklahoma have limits or require prescriptions for things containing ephedrine to combat the meth problem
 
 crank is just a generic term for any sort of amphetamine or methamphetamine.
 
 With regards to it being "the drug" who knows, its been around forever and tends to come and go throughout the years.

If tweakers put nightguards in their mouths while tweaking, I wonder, would their teeth be protected against the ravages of tweakdom?

Ritilan and SSRIs.
 
 And for the hardcore, oxycontin. Just ask Rush and Courtney.

Speed dries out your mouth real bad and that makes it a hot bed for bacteria...that's another reason it's rough on the teeth.

Well, I'm not all that sure about humans but I can tell you what all the squirrels in South London are doing.
 
 Apparently, all the crack heads are stashing their drugs in the parks. The local squirrels have since taken to eating the rocks of crack. This has led to a rash of crack addicted squirrels who have become strung out and digging frantically for more crack. Those suckers are hyper enough. I don't think that I want to run into some crack head squirrel with a habit to feed.

Ha!  I was just reading about that on a blog!  Then came back here and it's been mentioned. Weird things happen when you spend the whole night on the Internet.

LOL. We have them too!
 
 "Crack squirrels are a recognised problem in America. They are common in parks used by addicts in New York and Washington DC."
 
 Has anyone seen any?
 I've seen plenty of loons.
