Attached Link: You got RIPPED. So sad.

TwoPynts did the best on this issue with real shots...check that one out!

All I have to say is this is old stuff, little bags and twisty ties. If the twisty was on the scale you got ripped. You got ripped anyway...and possibly in trouble.

Folks can't handle it, hard stuff beyond MJ and therein is a real social issue. Where do the friends go when the stuff is gone? Where are you left?

(Just for thought I will post a link to a feeble Poser/PSP thing done last year. I am only looking at Poser, never learned it.)

God Bless. Tom.

Erm...ok...I must be dumb or really tired (it's 5.45am over here! O_o) or both, but...what the hell are u talking about here Tom??

I used to have a tripple beam. gave it away when I got sober over 14 years ago. yep, that is definately a social issue!

Tom, this is a totally fantastic image!!! very, very good!!!!!! Pascale, it's about drugs. it took me awhile to figure it out. don't feel bad girl!!!!

Sits in the corner and wonders what it is all about too ????

And every one said, 'If we only live,
We too will go to sea in a Sieve,---
To the hills of the Chankly Bore!'
Far and few, far and few, Are the lands where the Jumblies live;
Their heads are green, and their hands are blue, And they went to sea in a Sieve.

I totally got it. Just like Pavlov's dog. Been clean nine years! Great shot of a major social issue Tom. Sorry to hear about your sister I had some friends go out that way; so very hard to understand or accept:[

Sorry if vague...cocaine would be sold in little baggies like the one in the picture(which btgw is full of baking soda!)...so many dollars per gram, etc. Dealers were not to be trusted as the most honest folks and users were and are messing big time with their own lives by even buying the stuff. This problem does destroy parts of society. Tom For those who din't "get the picture"..good for you! : )_

MMm.... I didn't get it either.... guess that's a good thing! But I do like the image.... The scale fascinates me. Looks very old, and well you know how I love old things.

I am, therefore I create.......

Michelle, the scale is old and still covered with dust from the garage. I used it to weigh metals, etc. in jewelry work before we got electronic scales. I have and old "labratory scale" in its glass box that is neat, too. Sorry the image is so vague..the "symbols of wealth" in the pic were to mean "its all about the money" with little conscience otherwise. Drug dealers are no one's friend. This is not a happy subject and I don't like the picture for what it depicts...still, this is a social issue just as are steroids in professional sports creeping down to the high school levels. Tom.

Depicts the Subject perfectly....an insidious substance...that can become more precious than Life.

not vague to me at all... an important issue that can take over & run your life as Tedz said, & i appreciate the antique scales too! :]

Ooooooooooooooooh! I got it now!! And yea I do love the pic too btw! Forgot to mention that cos I was trying to figure out what was the message here! Great entry Tom! Sheila: Thx sweety, u make me feel better! ;) And yea, I'm with Michelle about the fascination with the scale here!

Tom, great image man. I don't know if it's a good thing or not, but I got the Rolex bit too before you confirmed what it was about :-) Obviously this musta just been a very hard time of the year that you've just been through; my heart goes out to ya, bud. Once again we find how little we really know about each other sometimes. (",)

"Obviously this musta just been a very hard time of the year that you've just been through" O_o?? I think I've missed something AGAIN here!!

this one makes me so very sad to see...good on you for submitting this...one of the biggest (yet least talked about) social issue of the past, present and sadly, the future...
