Mini Ziplok Bags

I save these whenever I happen on them in packaging or whatnot.

But no matter how religiously I keep throwing in my desk drawer where I keep such odds and ends, I never seem to have one when I need one.

From the website:

Mini Zip Bags — 1,000 Uses!

Mini zipper bags keep "small stuff" organized!

Great for storing beads and buttons, pins and needles, nuts and washers.

Clear plastic allows easy identification.

Set of 30 mini bags includes 10 of each: 2-1/2" x 3"; 3" x 3"; 3" x 4".

Set of 60 regular has 20 of each: 3" x 4"; 4" x 6"; 5" x 8".

The set of 30 mini bags costs $1.99; the set of 60 regular is $4.99.

********************

I'll tell you who could've used these: my roommate during my sophomore year of college in good old Rieber Hall at UCLA (Go Bruins!).

He was a grad student in psychology and putting himself through college by selling speed.

He'd sit there at his desk under the lamplight with his scales and baggies and piles of pure meth and ledger book, weighing and measuring and recording the whole night through.

He was a super–nice guy, great roommate, quiet, everything you'd want in someone sharing tight quarters.

He said that if I ever wanted any speed or any other drugs to let him know and he'd get me the pure stuff, the best, no problem, at cost.

I never took him up on it.

Even then I thought reality was — by far — the best drug of all.

w00t!
