- Subject: Speedlore and Methology: Parts I & II
-
-
-
- Of all the seperate realities , legal landscapes, and metabolic metropoli
- that thrive beneath the surface of the Cleaver's USA, no subculture seems
- as pervasive or uniform as the nationwide-eyed, high dosage methamphetamine
- club.
-
- This group is a tribute to the idea that some things stay the same accross
- time or space....the members come and go, some leave quietly, some go
- snitch, croak, or disappear, some hang in there after their lights have
- gone out, and quite a few are dragged off at 6:00 AM Friday morning by blue
- windbreakers with yellow writing, often stuffed with fellow club members
- workin' the swine side.
-
- Getting in too deep is what we DO, it's who we are.
-
- But despite all this, there are a few of us who have managed to hang around
- the periphery for decades, avoiding the felonies, gunshots, big ripoffs,
- and crip- pling motorcycle accidents. Other than luck, the key to staying
- alive is knowing when to take a step back, on your own, and avoid the
- biggest bearTrap in the speedCircus: taking yourself too seriously....
-
- Truly not giving a fuck is the only way to maintain perspective. In other
- words, there are worse things that can happen, than having to lay down and
- go to sleep for a week...no drug or state of mind is worth dying for,
- killing for, or doing hard time for....if you think that YOU are the one
- who is going to retire with a cool million from the Methamphetamine
- manufacture and distrubution Jamboree, it's time to get some sleep.
-
- But the American Speedfreak is not a lost soul. We know how to have fun
- between the first ether gasp and locking ourselves in the closet. A
- twisted wisdom creeps into those of us who manage to survive, a sort of
- collective unconsciousness, an unspoken Crankster ideology:
-
- Never piss off a motorcycle gang, (unless yours is bigger/meaner)
- Coke freaks are to be treated like lepers.
- Do not gas around your scooter or your tools, they'll rust.
- Never front more than you can afford to lose: beating the shit out
- of everyone who doesn't pay up is a waste of time, attracts attention, and
- nobody really gives a fuck how BAD you are anyway, except cops.
- Always label the distilled water jug after adding lye.
- If you want to tweak through someone's shit, just ask....and don't
- steal,they'll probably give it to you anyway
- Ether fumes are heavier than air...if your feet suddenly feel warm,
- check to see if they're on fire.
- 'You meet the very same people on the way up, as on the way back
- down'-Lowell George....try not to be too offensive.
- Duct tape will not contain hot acids or their vapors.
- Never take your eyes off someone with whom you trade dope for
- merchandise.
- Never use copper fittings
- Never do green crank (see above)
- SEX takes at least six hours, and is always best when the drugs are
- shared, this is not the time to get stingy.
- Just 'cause YOU can't smell it, doesn't mean it don't stink.
-
- IT'S TIME TO GO TO SLEEP WHEN...
- you're out of crank
- your face is bouncing off the table
- your veins have completly disappeared beneath pastey goose flesh
- your shoes don't fit anymore
- 24 simultaneous projects have stalled for lack of floor space
- suddenly everyone is a cop
- you've just set yourself on fire, AGAIN
-
- ..YOU'RE NODDING OUT....
- into glassware
- 15 minutes after shooting a 1/4g
- at stoplights
- in mid-sentence
- in mid-shot
- in mid-fuck
- on your scooter
-
- cont.
-
- Part II: DISORGANIZED CRIME AND RACKETOONING:Guidelines and rules of engagement
-
- -All cops lie
- -The only rhythm a snitch ever gets is bent over a laundry cart in
- the joint, see above.
- -Never cook and deal at the same time.
- -Deny everything, especially when caught red-handed, cops do NOT
- respect an idiot anyway, don't be conned by the 'go easy on you if you
- confess' crap, pleading guilty is something you do in court, with a lawyer,
- for a deal in writing, not at a station house, see first rule.
- -Always keep your registration current and pay your parking tickets,
- more folks go down from behind the wheel than anywhere else.
- -Never carry more drugs on a scooter than you can eat, see above.
- -Always let mail order stuff cool down at a distance, and of course,
- never sign your real name to anything asociated with manufacture
