Yeah, NY is ridiculous, I was out there in 2008, and my friends were buying grams at 100, delivered to the door. It was straight, I haven't done any since 2006, but they were geeked up. Someone told me recently that whole ones were going for 36.
Dopeboy/fukk up story: When I was in high school, one of my closest friends died in an accident, I felt guilty because I was selling him a few grams two days before he died, and he was under the influence when crashed on the street bike. So, his funeral/wake I am a wreck, drinking heavily, valium, coke. I was up all night after the funeral, and the next day I'm drinking vodka and chewing valium at my boys house, who had just got a new pit bull. They all took off, and I sat at this table/couch drinking. I pulled all my money, scale, work, out and put it on the table. It was like 650 cash, re'up money, all my money in the world, when I came to, after passing out, there was about $40 dollars left, ripped and torn on the floor. The fukking pitbull had chewed up my money while I slept. I wanted to cut the dog open. One of the worst days ever. I came back, quick, but that was awful. Funny shyt now though.
