Uncle Joe Posted June 21, 2007 Report Posted June 21, 2007 3. Also, goldbricker. Slang. a person, esp. a soldier, who shirks responsibility or performs duties without proper effort or care. –verb (used without object) Slang. 4. to shirk responsibility or perform halfheartedly; loaf. This was the context in which I used the term. Calling out of work, shirking responsibility when being counted on to perform. Turns out she was really ill. Oops! I'm walking much better these days.
Lucky Posted June 21, 2007 Report Posted June 21, 2007 Three words: Roman candle battle. My friends and I are very stupid. Done it. I was more of a bystander, but rooting them all on, great fun right? One fired off hit me in the stomach. As if the burn itself wasn't bad enough, I was wearing a synthetic shirt, that melted to my skin. literally. Luckily we were by a quarry, and I jumped into the cold water. I was able to peel the melted material off. Along with my skin.
edna Posted June 21, 2007 Report Posted June 21, 2007 I have been in many dangerous situations but I can´t talk about them on a web site. I´ll let you know when my book is published and send a copy to all of you
DiggsUK Posted June 21, 2007 Report Posted June 21, 2007 My missus and I once smuggled $ into China down our undies... We were searched and sniffed at by dogs, but not well enough. Perhaps the fact that we had been travelling for a week without a proper shower put them off... eeewww!!!
Kevin Posted June 21, 2007 Report Posted June 21, 2007 Yes , showering once every 3 or 4 days is enough for any proper man calling himself a Brit , eh ?! I just knew Diggs was waiting for a thread like this . Glad they didn't find your dope which you'd just picked up in the Golden Triangle ...
Sweet Jane 61 Posted June 21, 2007 Report Posted June 21, 2007 When I was 14 and in Key West for the summer, my girlfriend and I went out with friends to party for the 4th of July. I took drugs I had never done before and drank a lot of booze. I was passed out for almost 3 days. And yes that scared the crap out of me!! That was the first and last time I ever lost time due to drugs and booze. I am lucky, very lucky.
edna Posted June 21, 2007 Report Posted June 21, 2007 That´s normal, the first time I took LSD, after a wonderful trip with my friends, I slept for 24 hours.
Sweet Jane 61 Posted June 21, 2007 Report Posted June 21, 2007 Oh I had done drugs, but not so many in such a short time frame of a few hours and that was my first experience with coke and I was just stupid, after that I did my drugs one at a time!
edna Posted June 21, 2007 Report Posted June 21, 2007 were you 14 too? No, I was 15... 1971, they still made real and good acid...
Sweet Jane 61 Posted June 21, 2007 Report Posted June 21, 2007 No, I was 15... 1971, they still made real and good acid... Edna, I love you!
DiggsUK Posted June 21, 2007 Report Posted June 21, 2007 "Glad they didn't find your dope which you'd just picked up in the Golden Triangle ..." No, the only triangle involved in this incident was furry....
Kevin Posted June 22, 2007 Report Posted June 22, 2007 Diggs - you've aged suddenly- and now look like a tele-evangelist - or Omar Sharif !
