Just shut the stupid "Community Center" down. Geez. These people obviously can't handle anything affiliated with the concept of community. I surely do not want my tax money wasted on such idiocy.

So I've been told. If I ever need to evade the truth, I'll look into them. In the mean time the people who’re performing the tests also know the methods people try to use. If they take much preparation, folks may not be able to use the techniques. By the way, a number of prospective drivers fail the drug test, even knowing they are going to have one. I also knew a kid from near here who was going into the Army a few years back but failed the drug test, knowing full well they would test him. I guess he figured he was smarter than they were. (Still sponging off of others last I heard, still thinks he‘s smarter than them.) David for working brains REGARDING:

This is from an almost alcoholic and a forner nicotine addict. The same with experimenting with drugs of any sort.

Drugs will cross all lines if accepted and they do not care about you or your family or your friends. If you don't allow them in your life in the first place they can not thrive. Simple and clear!

Who was that? I would also like to ask those who are blaming it all on Atmore, what about the "mysterious" deaths we've had around here? Drownings that we all know weren't drownings, alleged suicides, etc. What about the HUGE amount of drug overdoses? Another one just a couple of nights ago. David,
