The Wand
Penn Live | Submitted by: Space Jew
"Carlisle High School will soon have a new tool to detect alcohol. The school is calling it the wand. Most area schools screen students if they smell of alcohol or exhibit signs of intoxication. Typically, they are asked to blow into a breath-alcohol tester. Any level of alcohol is a violation."

"From: spacedcadet5555 [dick] Date: 6-Nov-2005 01:28 kids just have to smoke pot. not drink alcohol " ------------------------------------------------------- Oh, man, I love it. These ultra squeaky clean types who are railing against the traditional, and conservative, teenage experimentation with alcohol before a school dance are going to wipe that out and the kids will just replace it with pot! I am pissing myself laughing! I look forward to a future story listed in dailyrotten.com detailing how they held a school dance and everyone was acting funny, but these idiot dickheads (wandheads) couldn't figure out why! They'll probably be stupid enough to call the health department and report an "outbreak". HA! "Come quickly, all the kids here are acting ill. Please hurry!" I need to stop now. Idiots like this make me laugh enough to get a hernia

They probably won't replace alcohol with pot but with pills; they're much easier to hide and don't reek. What an improvement. "The device also can be passed over drinks to test for alcohol. It does not generate 'false positives' to substances such as mouthwash, officials said". I wonder how it can tell the difference.

A worker doing routine maintenance at Calvary Cemetery in the 1600 block of Newburg Road NOTICED a suitcase on a hillside near granite markers. There that sounds better!

As with all 'tests' - start at the top. Testing is suddenly invasive and unfair when applied to: The CEO and Board of Directors The Principal and the School Board The Mayor and City Council The President and Congress. Just shut up and pee in the cup George.

It does not generate 'false positives' to substances such as mouthwash, officials said. Simple, drink mouthwash. It's sad though, some of my best HS memories are all aglitter with the 3 or 4 beers we'd put away during lunch. Any adult in that situation would turn to booze in a second.

If these kids are drinking, it's better to have them at that dance, where the adults can keep an eye on them (and where they're dancing rather than driving!). If they know that there's a good chance they'll get busted at the dance, they'll look for someplace else to hang out, and then they'll be everyone's problem.

I agree with Wulfgartheblack, I wonder what kind of readings this thing would register in the teachers lounge!

Baby, I got your 'wand' right here... Lemme insert it to detect if you've been a bad girl

Here is the AlcoBlow brochure (PDF file): [alcoholtest.com] I don't see any claim that it ignores mouthwash alcohol. These things sell for $400: [chiefsupply.com] , a pittance to those who are prepared to think of the children.

My home town! I self-medicated the entire HS experience...maybe if they concentrated on bullies, poverty, bad teachers and paternal alcoholism kids wouldn't need to self medicate. Dude, it sucks when you see your town in rotten.

its funny how they spend all this time on fixing the problem with drunk kids, but not poor kids, or stinky kids, or depressed kids. Nor do they bother with bulling, gangs, overcrowded classroom, and constant sexual assault right in from of the administation.(in my school at least) No, not the elementary sized desks, the broken florescent lights that stink and spit super hot liquid shit, the water fountaints(sic,pun) with mold in them and rusty water, or the sewage back up problem out by the trailers they call jrotc. at my school one of the vice principal stands by the auditorium(were well all have to go of a morning) to sniff people for weed/booze, we cant even afford a fucking drug dog.

High school is the time when kids can have fun, screw up, and have the oppertunity to learn, and not have the consequences ruin thier lives. Our HS guards smoked pot, the health and decisions making teacher got drunk during class, and most of the staff looked the other way unless someone was about to get hurt or do something REALLY stupid and blatant, and everyone was fine. Most of the fun was in finding ways not to get caught (I still ahve scars under my breasts from hiding a razor and lit pipe in my bra}. All this is going to do is either drive them to drink somewhere not as safe, or get alot more creative. Coming soon to Rotten: HS students overdose on mouthwash to beat wand alcohol detectors
