ON the lighter side of F.B.I

I thought I had seen and heard everything but this had me scratching my HEAD. The F.B.I is now considering hiring POT SMOKING HACKERS . They are considering this in light of the 2 states that have now legalized weed and many other states that have relaxed restrictions on the substance.I say WOW. Smoke pot and teach the F.B.I how to Hack. I'am at a loss how about you?

Not surprising really. Those who smoke weed and I speak from personal experience have a way of concentrating on the project at hand. Sometimes being very creative, thinking outside the box. Hackers love to hack and when given something of that nature to hack into...well...depending on how good they are, who knows what kind of crazy will ensue. As long as they don't do it to their own people but...we all know that ain't gonna happen. The FBI doesn't have such a good track record. Kinda like the CIA, NSA and all those other dipshit agencies.

Okay, so I read the arstechnica link but I'm still not buying it.  Wouldn't be surprised to see that the FBI Director was looking for a new job.  I'm an old fart and set in my ways, and no I haven't......ever.  :X

Hi philly0381 I sincerely apologize if I have offended you in any way. I am going to be 60 years old in less than a month now myself so you see I am no spring chicken myself and am also set in my ways. But believe me all I am trying to do was to just bring a bit of humor to the community so if this thread offends any one I am sorry!!! just please try to see the humor in this!

Having worked in science for over 2 decades, I can say that the number of brilliant scientists (and also the not-so-brilliant ones) who light up regularly is... large...

Okay, so that's why I failed chemistry and other science subjects at school... I didn't [and still don't] smoke pot. :-"

Never too late to adopt new, more effective, tools.  :)

Nah, can't touch it... something in it makes me ill, and the effect lasts for several days.  I did try it in my teens, but with a result like that I wasn't going to persist with it.  Some years later I had the same violent reaction when someone baked it into some choc chip cookies and 'conveniently' neglected to inform me of the fact.  I was ill for over a week.

Thing is, whether it made me ill or not, I still wouldn't use it because I'd rather face life, however hard or unpleasant it may be at times, in complete control of my faculties, not in some drug altered state. I did substance abuse when I drank alcohol to excess some years back and spent way, waaaay too much money to enter an altered state of being, so never again. 

Not that I go there, AA that is... but my name is Mark and I'm now in my 14th year of sobriety.  And so much better off for it, both physically, mentally and financially.

Good for you Mark. Weed is definitely not for everyone, same as alcohol. I know people who are allergic to it and others who just can't handle it but do it anyway. Those dudes I've seen go to jail quite often for stupid stuff. One thing with me...I keep my nose clean and never stick it where it don't belong. Even my drivers license is squeaky clean.
