Guide to local drug dealers
Yeah, I'm looking to score
Not really, and probably that term is totally passe and now you all know how deeply uncool I am Actually I'm wondering about a weird thing I started noticing a year or two ago around the city. So, we have overhead powerlines, and occasionally there are shoes slung over the power line, like with the laces tied together so one shoe is dangling on either side? And I thought at the time, how odd. Then recently I heard an offhand comment on the radio that this is how drug dealers identify where they are. Does anyone know if that's true? If so, is it just an Aussie thing or a worldwide thing? Me in my naivety thought it was like some people having a laugh or something, but maybe something a bit more sinister??

Re: Guide to local drug dealers
Weird. A few weeks ago I saw two separate power lines on a road with shoes hung on them. At the time I figured some poor sap just had a joke played on him, now I must wonder!

Drug dealers are awfully civilised these days, aren't they?

Re: Guide to local drug dealers
yeah I've heard the drug dealer theory, as in it marks their turf or advertises. Some say can also mark gang territory.
In these fredro starr lyrics he could be referring to either I guess: n my hood it ain't no yellow brick road you hear the shots echo Sneakers hanging from a telephone pole In my ghetto there aint no rainbow or pots o gold But there was love from the family when times were cold ... johnny, the difference is that most things are legal in amsterdam, so they have no qualms about letting people know of them

Re: Guide to local drug dealers
If the shoes thing is true, we have a drug dealer who's been down my road for about 10 years.
