Roger's book is absolutely amazing. I bought the audio book, and it's 20+ hrs of pure adventure. I laughed, and a few times, I was on the verge of tears. The most wonderful part is that it is read by Roger himself. Story's of a pilot, train engineer, bootlegger, and Man of God are still told here in south G.a. Godspeed Roger Reaves.

The backdoor jail thing happened to friend in Georgia. It was a huge case, but the jailer "accidentally " let someone out at 11:30pm fri night on personal recognizance. He went on the lam for 4 years til a plea was worked out.

@TheChurchofCacti 7 ай бұрын

That kind of happened to me except it wasnt the Jails fault. When I was young and dumb I did something really stupid and was looking at 3 misdemeanors if I was lucky, or a felony if unlucky. Regardless I was looking at 6-12 months. The next morning after arrest they called me for release. What had happened is the Cop was pushing the DA for the felony but the DA said No its 3 misdemeanors. In the end the paperwork wasn't filed within 12 hours of arrest, or maybe it was 24, but regardless their debate made the paperwork late the the jail had to let me out. I literally ran around the corner after being let out, thinking it was a mistake. That was 15 years ago, and I never have been back to the State. They won't extradite for misdemeanors and it's not on my record since I never went to Court. I do need to eventually take care of it but I figure after 20 years of no other Crimes and good lawyer they'll just fine me at this point when I do finally take of it.

@TheNaturalust 6 ай бұрын

In the mid 80’s the bricks in LA went down to $14,000. That’s the cheapest it was and the most expensive was $19-20,000. It was still twice that in Midwest cities and NYC. Basically the further from the Mexican border the more expensive. In the early 2000’s they started cutting the bricks in South America with Borax or Inositol. It’s hard to get 97% blow anymore…even at the kilo level. And unfortunately the coca plant has changed to a plant that grows bigger and produces more alkaloids but it’s NOT the same. The intense euphoria is gone but so is the intense paranoia. A couple families in Peru are still growing the old plant but that’s the last vestige of the old blow that started it all out. And the ether solvent that produced the VERY best blow is gone and inferior solvents are used which leave more residual crap and often make the blow inferior. Those are the facts as I know them.
