Wisconsin and Meth

[BubbaWilliams]

Ok guys and gals, don't get upset about this. This is GOOD news. I was watching this special on the National Geographic channel and it was about the meth explosion in America. It showed a map of the 50 states and starting with Oregon and moving east, each state that meth has become a problem was turned red. The good news? Well,  the good news is that Wisconsin never turned red. I don't know about you scoopers out there, but I hate meth and all of its evils. I mean, I really hate meth. My motto for election is going to be, "if you cook meth, you're put to death." So, to all you Sconnies out there... keep it up and keep it clean.

I'm with ya BRMU!  I hate meth too!!!

The reason for no meth in wisco these days is becuase jason kendall no longer plays for the brewers.

I am glad to hear we don't have a meth problem, but I'm also glad meth gave us Breaking Bad

Lots of recruiting violations.

i heard the meth in IN is guaranteed to make a kid run faster and jump higher.

[BubbaWilliams]

thats the wrong kind of "higher"

[MUfan12]

Lots of recruiting violations.

Winner.

did they count Sparta, Tomah and Wisconsin Rapids in that survey?

Out here in New Mexico,from Breaking Bad fame, there's a billboard just outside Carlsbad as you enter from the north that says, "Don't Meth Your Life Up".   Meth is horrible but it makes me chuckle each time I see it.

Hillbilly heroin.   For some real fun, clean up a meth house sometime.    A nightmare.

That's what they invented Haz-Mat teams for...of course, I applied for Haz-Mat, so I'm sure that day is coming

[tower912]

On this side of Lake Michigan, the clean up is generally contracted out, but the private companies who do it like to hire trained haz-mat techs (firefighters) to do it as a side job.  I did it for a couple of months for extra money while my wife was off on maternity leave.   Some of the most pathetic, disgusting homes you are ever likely to see.

There's a simple reason that meth hasn't caught on in Wisconsin.  (Probably the same reason that most recreational drugs are aren't as relatively widespread in Wisconsin as they are in other "hillbilly" states.)  [edited for clarification]

Why bother with that crap when malty goodness flows like water in Wisconsin.

It amazes me what passes as "living" for some people  and even more so when there are kids in the house. One of the few downsides of the job.

Which finally returns, after about a 13 month haitus, later this month, I think.

Great, great show.

Meth is like tom crean. At first it seemed like a good idea. Then it takes effect and destroys your life.

[BubbaWilliams]

I know meth ruins your teeth, but if it gave you hair like Tom Crean, we wouldn't have a problem in this country

What about if it made you tanner (sp) than an Oompa Loompa?

While not causal, a quick glance of this map and http://media.jsonline.com/images/OBESITY08G.jpg would indicate a decent correlation between the "fat" states and "meth" states.

In other words, I'd much rather get fat on beer than skinny on meth.

[BobWildLoyalist]

some people get fat by sitting on the couch and smoking pot. I would think wisco would not be that "high" on this list cause milwaukee has terrible pot (from what i have heard).

[swoopem]

Oh yeah from what you heard? Nice Ph in fan you hippie

[BubbaWilliams]

People in Milwaukee don't get fat becasue guys want to look good for all the beautiful women there...
