I don't really think every job should be subject to drug testing, but I think some should. Anyway, as a non drug user, I really don't have much of an opinion. My non-involvement in drug issues has made me apathetic. I am for personal choice when it doesn't infringe. If you smoke some pot in the evenings while you aren't pushing buttons that could affect people's lives, that is fine by me. If you are an air traffic controller, I think they should have lots of random drug tests to make sure you aren't pumping your veins full of heroin before landing the 747 that I am flying on.

Don't play much poker - but I am a huge John Malkovich fan. There are many who believe he should have received the best supporting actor for his role in Rounders. I was in Chicago over the weekend and this f-ing Texas Hold-em thing is everywhere. It's on TV, there are parties, tournaments, I couldn't get to my hotel room without being inundated with this crap. I live about 4 hours from Vegas and I haven't seen it this bad anywhere. What's the deal filtercraig? By the look of your site - you are a midwesterner - poker big in Cleveland? (I'm assuming it's Cleveland due to your Cleveland.com link). Any of you guys get serious and actually play hold-em at a casino? Is it no limit? I must say, Mr. Filteringcraig, truly a subject matter worth discussing. It's a little more upbeat than your cat, or the Ohio driver's you bitch about (by the way - have you ever driven in LA?) I appreciate your dedication to this site. I just might "buy you something" after all. As a side note, I'd be interested in your thoughts about random drug testing. I think my employer is singling me out. Until next time, this is ass-monkey signing off. Now that i’m back in town, I can read my daily ‘filtercraig’.
