Every other drug is out of your system in days. It doesn’t catch alcoholics so the whole drug testing industry is based on busting pot smokers who are not dangerous, show if anything an extra attention to detail and creativity attributes you would think a company would want. I agree heavy machinery, doctors, bus drivers should be tested but what if you are applying for a job in customer service, housekeeping or cook. Studies have proven that those work places that test are no safer statistically than those that don’t so why do we continue this insanity.

finally giving in and decided to buy a snowblower rather than spend hours digging out with shovel. live in northern nj where winters are either mild and then we get a blizzard, or we get snow every other day. i’m a short, middle-aged woman and am not looking forward to dealing with a heavy piece of machinery early on a cold winter morning… but i don’t want a light-weight dinky electric snow shovel, either. any recommendations?

I just recently aquired some freshly cut maple and was interested in possibly turning into a snare drum. The only problem is that i cant figure out how. Ive searched on the internet and have come up relatively short on how to actually construct the shells themeselves. If anyone could point me in the right direction or give me some helpful hints it would be greatly appreciated.
