(mixing the concrete in a 3 bag mixer) Setting the trusses and doing the roofing? Hand digging footers? This last few weeks I have been dragging limbs the size of your leg along with tree trunks that go up to about 1000 pounds. All of this in SW Florida where it is too hot for you to sit by the pool ... next. |

His life has been spent punching keys on a typewriter. |

I agree though that those experiences provide great motivation to go to school. |

I wonder if he's going to abandon the war on drugs and come up with some program that will actually work. === The war on drugs doesn't work, just like prohibition didn't work, and for the same reason - demand was there and suppliers will always step into the breach. Just like alchohol, the solution will be legalization, taxation and control. It will also solve a huge crime problem. It's not a perfect solution but better than what we are doing now because it will put dealers, distributors, drug gangs and smugglers out of business. Users will still get addicted and over dose but that's happening now. I've heard talk recently of a vaccine being developed to combat opioid addiction. Wasn't that what methadone was supposed to do? The guy next door ended up hooked on methadone. It reminds me of people who got the gum to stop smoking and now they have a $250 a month gum habit. I'll have you know my gum habit runs less than $15/month! Wrigleys? Orbit, a product of Wrigley. Used it to wean me off the Nicorettes. |

If only there was a better way for some of his buddies to make big bucks over getting folks off opioids, eh? What works now? Depends on the cause of the addiction. As an example, a large number of those addicted got that way because they were prescribed opioids to counter the pain from work-related injuries or the years of abuse from doing physically demanding jobs that break down the body. These guys (they are mostly men) need to get back to work, but can't work at their old jobs without the painkillers. Some of them can be trained for new, less physically demanding jobs that still pay well, and allow them to work full-time without opioids or with aspirin or Tylenol or similar meds, counseling, physical therapy, and pain management professionals. Wow, you are totally uninformed about addiction. Once addicted, *that* becomes the issue, not pain management or re-training for another job. Most people addicted to opioids are long over whatever caused them to get hooked to begin with. Hey, he fed you the union line. More specifically, the line the union pays his wife to sell, weather she believes it or not. D'uh. My wife doesn't sell the sort of bull**** that guides your vacuous life, **** for brains. She helps people with psychological-emotional problems, family problems, drug addiction problems, disaster relief problems, et cetera. It's too bad you have no one to contact to help you with your many psychological problems. She should start at home, eh Harry Krause? |

Most of us have probably done it at one time or another. I've toted a hell of a lot of concrete blocks! |

The last time I worked with block, "decorative block" at that, was about 10 years ago, on the 12' x 20' building out on the Shenandoah. It was a backbreaker. |
