Re: Ethics Survey
I'd leave it the hell alone. Some Arab may have left it there, loaded with smallpox.
Re: Ethics Survey
I'd leave it. Probably some hidden-camera reality TV prank thing. Man, I'm never falling for that again!

Leave it there. Pens are easy to come by. Now a 67, on the other hand.............

Re: Ethics Survey
I'd leave it, I've got plenty of pens.
But on a related note, we just played a last minute gig on Monday night. We thought we were playing first but ended up playing second to last (and we almost got stuck playing last! No fun on a Monday night). I had only brought a little weed with me - I don't generally smoke before shows anymore anyway, and I figured we'd be out of there early. But it was a slow night and we got there early so we smoked what I brought. But after a while of playing pool and just waiting for the FIRST band to start we started feeling like another session out in the van. So we asked the one 'head in the place that we knew of and he had none either. So resigned to our fate, we just hung around. I went to play some pinball and the other two guys hung by the bar. When I came back, the singer tells me that they were standing there talking to somebody and all of a sudden they noticed a baggie on the floor. They discreetly pocketed it and it was like a 2 grams of pot! We had a brief discussion about it but what do you do? Shout "hey! anyone lost a baggie"? The one guy who we thought it might belong to was dry (or at least that's what he told us), so we went out and smoked it and split up what was left.
On one hand it was perfect timing and could be looked at as cosmic payback for taking this gig, even though it only payed $25 (free beer always helps though), on the other hand I hope it didn't belong to the touring band or anyone else hard up for cash.
So for weed I guess it's "look around then put it in your pocket" and then feel kinda bad later on. But smoke it anyway.

Re: Ethics Survey
Hmmm...
Everyone SAYS they would just leave it, yet only TWO have voted as such.
What a buncha big fat liars!

Re: Ethics Survey
I'd pick that monkey up, pull down my pants and stab myself in the eye and pay myself not to tell anyone..
or find the person who droped it and give them a citizens arrest for littering..

Re: Ethics Survey
So Sky...Would you stab yourself with that very pen in question, or would you use an alternate device?
Please respond. I must know before I turn in for the night.

Re: Ethics Survey
well as you can see I have a cold and been drinking too much robotussin..
I would stab myself in the eye with a tree branch, thats what usually happens when I go to the park, im kind of a branch target..I would not use the pen itself because I would not want to damage someones valuable property..BTW is this the kind of pen that has a girl on it and when you turn it upside down her cloths fall off? Because if it is I'm going to have to change my all my thousands of votes and replies..from when I was not born..ok?
