He hit himself (never had to tie > off- the bastard- at least in those days...I envyed the hell out of him), No doubt I'd piss you off royally, then. I've always had 'good veins' (knock on wood). Never tied, never had any trouble getting off. I guess if I'd kept up the pace that would have changed, but I got a few good years in with no apparent damage. At one point my wife (Hi honey!)[*] and I were shooting coke. The thing that sucks about coke (I'm sure you know this if you've ever done it) is that 3 minutes after you shoot it, you're ready for another shot. So you end up hitting yourself about a hundred times a day. Even so, I managed OK. This pissed people off though, because after a while they'd be struggling to get a hit. Seems like some veins have sense enough to run and hide after a while!

Date: Sun, 26 Oct 1997 19:13:06 -0500 I used to shoot lots of cocaine... I prefered U-100's as a means of delivery (needle) just put alittle coke in a CLEAN spoon.. well first wipe the spoon with rubbing alcohol. boil some water and put it in a glass cup. take a little coke and put it in the spoon, depending on how much coke you have in the spoon, add about 20 units of water form your cup , using your syrenge. (after it has cooled a bit) you can put a lighter under it if you want for just a bit but let it cool again. wipe your fingertips real good with rubbing alcohol then take a piece of clean ciggerette filter or rayon cotten ball (small) actually tiny, and put it in the spoon, This serves 2 purposes,1 to filter any dirt or other foreign contaminants, and 2 to provide a cushion so you dont dull your needle when you draw up your liquid coke. use the tapered part of the syrenge and place it on the cotten or rayon and draw up your liquid. turn syrenge upright gently tap the syrenge to get all the air bubbles to the top and dispell them. its ok to loose a little coke in the process. use a cottenball and sterilize your vein with rubbing alcohol real GOOD! then insert needle in vein carefully pull plunger just slightly till you see the stream of crimson red enter the syrenge, then you know you have a vein! and run it home!! most important, BE SANITARY DONT SHARE NEEDLES. and dont do it alone, and dont do too much at 1 time and dont mix with other drugs. and user beware... youll want more... I accept no responsbility if you screw this up and I DONT recommend doing it either. I havnt shot coke in many years and I wont do it again. If you never eat a steak ... youll never miss eating one...if you never shoot coke, youll never miss the feeling of shooting coke. so... SAY NO TO DRUGS. ==================================================================== From: (Mogul) Newsgroups: alt.drugs.hard,rec.drugs,rec.drugs.chemistry,rec.drugs.hard Subject: Re: IV cocaine use? Date: Tue, 28 Oct 1997 02:35:27 GMT I liked your descriptive on shooting coke. It pretty much tells it like it is. It's been almost 8 years since I shot a lot. I've tried it on and off (maybe 3 times) since the "good 'ol days." A few comments... It IS Like eating a steak, or better still, sex. If you've never done it you won't miss it. If you've shot coke, I mean GOOD coke (not that 0% cut chalk-crap), you won't ever loose the desire to do more. And you will not care much about snorting it. When you prep the stuff I recommend a slightly different approach than described. I AM one of those who will only shoot the stuff, or smoke it if it isn't powder. The solubility of coke is about .37 gram per mL of water at room temperature. I usually dissolved .5 gram per mL and then shot between .15 and .2 mL depending on the strength of the stuff. That first bang is always the indicator of how well the rest of the party will be... The BEST high is that first "tweaked" run when your hearing goes numb (for want of a better description), when everything feels calm beyond concern, and when you touch an erogenous zone and you practically orgasm. For me coke was like sex, only 10 times better. How much to run is dependent on the person. It was nothing for me to run a gram in a couple of hours (way less than a single night). I even once turned down a gram because it wasn't enough to satisfy. It would have left me hanging (and quality of single G is typically shit) . A quarter would last about a weekend, but typically I would just wear out & crash before I shot the whole thing. The big key to shooting is to use CLEAN water & syringes & vials (to dilute the stuff). I always washed everything with rubbing alcohol. As an additional precaution, I have access to some laboratory supplies & ran everything through a 0.05 µ syringe tip filter. Any particulate above about 0.2 µ will generally give you a fever. As for doing it alone, I violated this approach ALMOST EVERY TIME. I think in the several dozens of times in my life when I ran this shit, I was alone all but maybe 3 times. Once when I was with other people (a girlfriend) I wound up SHARING A NEEDLE. In my case I got lucky and didn't wind up with aids. But... the urge to shoot the stuff is SO STRONG that you don't think about something as remote as aids when running. Ergo... I prefer to shoot alone. Even though it's been years since my last run, I continue to think about it. Especially when I'm encountering stress in my life. The only thing that save's me from shooting up (I would LOVE to) is my remote location (no stuff that I can find), an incredibly busy schedule (I'm a middle manager, life sucks but the pay's good) and a wife that I value above all who wouldn't understand. But I still get that urge to just drop a couple of grand some weekend and... Be good! ==================================================================== From: Arrexx Subject: Re: Cocaine Date: 1997/04/03 Newsgroups: alt.drugs.hard > The biggest dangers come from using needles since you tend to shoot up > very frequently. So any dangers you face from using needles (infections, > vein problems, etc) are magnified with IV cocaine This is absolutely true.. I agree 100%.. Something about banging a bunch of coke every 15-20 minute tends to make your veins go to crap. > Its a pretty seductive thing.

The taste of bitterness... then the sound... "ssshhhhSSHHHH!ZZZHPZ" It is like living in a big reverb chamber. I don't know why I liked to shoot up coke, really it is not that cool... but it is.. very paradoxial. ==================================================================== Subject: Re: Cocaine Date: 04 Apr 1997 00:00:00 GMT From: durtro Newsgroups: alt.drugs.hard >Something about banging a bunch >of coke every 15-20 minute tends to make your veins go to crap. .....with your hands shaking and five misses for every hit...talking to god on the bathroom floor, jesus i didn't know a human being could sweat so much...... yuk. durtro the bodysnatcher
