No cops, snitches, & other bitches

Today I saw the new Bill Murray movie Broken Flowers, directed by Jim Jarmusch. It is basically a close-up character study full of moody silence and subtle humor. I liked it very much, but like another Bill Murray movie that I love, Lost in Translation, I think it is one of those "love it or hate it" movies. Personally, I think that Lost in Translation is a masterpiece mood piece, but I know many people who did not like it at all.

I found an interesting site called Found, where they post things that people have found on the street -- pictures, notes, etc. If you visit, navigate through the "Found Item of the Week" archive.

Here's what they have this week, a "set of thorough- yet disturbing- rules" which were found on the wall of a crack house in Portland, Maine when the police raided it. It is nice to know that crack house proprietors follow strict rules.



Question: On #7 -- No Irish. Is it even legal to discriminate against a particular nationality in a crack house?

And in #10, does it mean only some guy named Bud gets freebies, or that freebies are not allowed on any drugs except the bud?

Such complexities.

Seriously? Is that a real question? "Smokin' the bud." "Hey, you want some bud." At least I know for sure that you avoided the "wrong element" of BHS. Good work! A+

The way I see it, the crack house is just trying to keep the place clean, I mean, it's just common sense. No touching yourself - seriously, that can so spread germs, especially if you don't clean up afterwards like other curteous citizens. No Touching the stereo/tv - more self awarness of your own germs and the cleanliness of the house. I mean, everyone would want to touch those two things, and that would spread germ like wildfire. And No sharing pipes - just more common sense, you dont know where these other guys have been. What crack houses they used to reside at. I mean, you don't want to share a pipe with someone who was at no rules crack house, they are just dirrty. Gotta respect, yo.

Mr. W-

It's not a crack house, it's a crack home.

Home makes it sound a lot more... personal, and thats what these crackheads are all about. One big family under the same big crack roof.
