Donald dealt crack in high school. Paul L deals hash from his house in Laurelwood. News at 11.

I think the poster used the term "alleged". I presume if there is a basis in truth to the statement they made we will have to wait until the video is produced and displayed. Your pronouncement of the poster as an "idiot" seems plausible, but somewhat... — read more

Sorry papa. Me will never make the same mistake again.

Seriously, we have system controls that prevent all employees at all levels from visiting inappropriate websites. Don't make stupid remarks like this and if that is the way you think maybe you should not work here!

I don't think management are capable of lurking here. They have their heads so far up each others asses they don't have time to surf this site. In fact, their in office porn surfing time has dropped significantly too!

Your IP addresses are being tracked. We know who you are posters. Juat post your name and department so we can make it easier for lurker management to target you. No need to worry. You won't be fired. Just tortured. Muhahah
