The EC subways and subway stations in general are well lit and somehow feel safe even late at night with not many people around. How justified that feeling is I don't know. Of course, you do have to exit at some point, and whether it's safe from the door of the subway station to your destination is another question.

Went to a wake at the Flying Duck some 20 years ago for the brother of Max Fairchild (aka Skull) who was in Mad max and was also Beau from Beaurepaires . His sister in law put 2000 over the bar in the lounge. A couple of the housos heard about it and suddenly about 6 turned up and tried to claim they were drinking as part of the wake and scoffed a few sangers. Max walked out to the main bar, picked one up and said "I am not having a very good day and you are not helping " then took him outside and threw him into a bush. Never saw the rest again, they were somewhat shit scared and all headed off back to the housing complex.

Err... north is good, south is bad?

Was there any pot at the wake? Or just pots?

Just beer but it used to be a popular watering hole for the interns at the Alfred. My GP in Glen Iris said she probably spewed on every tile in the womens toilet. So I dare say there may have been a bit of product around.

... I don't know too many people that haven't smoked it, and I can assure you, none of them are the walking zombies with their minds altered

... I lived in the Hague and the Netherlands for four years and I saw many blown-out hippies, brain damaged and unemployable, and that in a regime where supply is (despite the myths) carefully controlled.
...

Hmm....

Some might say the above are examples of a bong-half-full/half-empty approach.

Personally, I reckon the truth lies somewhere in-between. I doubt that the majority of the Dutch hippies in question had had their minds cooked by weed alone, but I also accept that not everyone escapes unscathed.

you can see the massive health care and hospital next door, it looked really nice, and fairly new. We decided to try and walk to the circle bus as it was only a mile, and if you look to the right you can see the massive Suffulk county house of corrections!We were walking alongside the back of it, and it was just a wall and windows, no signs but electrical sensors on the grass, and then we saw the sign! thats when i said stuff it, lets go back and call a taxi!

I take it youve spent time there? we only had a day, as hubby decided he wanted to go to Denver for the auctions when id already booked everything, so i had to find a day, and it came from Boston! We had a lovely day there though, (well after we got the taxi!!), did the circle tour, and a harbour cruise which was really awesome. The city is so beautiful and clean. And i just loved all the brownstones, just gorgeous, so many incredible buildings in such good state of repair, it was very impressive.

Thats great news, there is certainly plenty in need of help. We drove past a huge refuge, with a really long line out the front, and the cab driver said its always like that, but everyone is just patient`and they just wait their turn, and if you see them on the street they are not pushy like in LA or New York.

I really like Denver, the main street on Saturday night is fantastic, stages and stalls everywhere, lots of free entertainment, its a really nice laid back vibe (smells a bit funny though!!!). Going back there for 3 nights at the end of our trip may/june for Mecum Car auctions, ill have to see if the rockies are playing while we are there, that was a great night!
