not yet but give more credit I like the primo fuck dat ses shit...

intha916 said:

Awww that's cold, not saying I'm always right but a compliment has to come from somebody on drugs?

pejman said:

Seriously though man I don't think "Minister Of Information"/Griff's exit are really that underground a piece of information. Most PE fans would know this...

Essence said:

True Dat, but I was refering to somebody elses post that said you were never wrong so it was a compliment, oh and I am not on drugs. I am currently on probation and my P.O. tests me monthly Is weed a drug?

pejman said:

You better get that weed out your system before testing yeah, I heard it sticks around in the system for months.

Essence said:

I actually used administer drug tests and I'll be the first to tell you weed is easy to flush out. Used to be hair testing was hard to beat but they even have that whipped now with these shampoos

intha916 said:

I heard about those shampoos. They thought of everything I'll tell ya... hey we all just seriously jacked this thread...

intha916 said:

Right,hair is a magnet to cocaine in a system especially so if you're a coke head Pejman now might be good time to go for that shaven look.

Essence said:

he he he a few years ago before I knew of the shampoo I went and filled out an application...after doing so the sign in front of me said we do drug test by hair folicles...now my hair is already shaved and I asked the lady how would they test me she said by the hair off of my arm so much for that job...by the way essence, in case you never read one of my past posts...I LOVE YOUR AVATAR!!!

Professor Griff's name is Richard Griffin. Along with being PE's "Minister of Information," he is also called "The Last Asiatic Disciple" in PE's Fear of a Black Planet cd booklet. Griff and Chuck D. share the same birthdate: August 1, 1960.
