New Site

I put up a site about drug abuse, drug policy, drug trade etc. It's The Drug Review.

A Remembered Memory

When I was little this really strange kid live down the street from me (and I'm not talking about Heathe). He was kindof a nerd (again, not talking about Heathe but I'll bet Heathe knows who I'm talking about).One time he told me this stupid story which I will now relate to you.

He said that his mother's dream was to go to an Oklahoma City 89'ers game. For those of you who don't know, they were the old AAA affiliate in OKC before they changed their name to the RedHawks.

Anyway, finally one year, they took her for her birthday. Sadly, she was hit by a foul ball and knocked clean out. When she came to, she said, "where am I?" They said, "mom, you're where you've always wanted to be. At an 89'ers game."

I thought I'd share that ridiculous story with you. Though, because of my young age, I did not doubt the truth of the story at the time, I was already old enough and smart enough to think, 'dude, if what a stupid thing to have as a dream. If her dream was to go to an 89'ers game, why did someone wait so long to drop $8.00 for a ticket.' Seriously, it's not Fenway people (my dream. The $150 is a little harder to drop.)

The Introspective, Aloof 17 Year Old inside me Rejoices

I woke up to read this today:

After a break of almost 25 years legendary British pop
group Pink Floyd are to reunite for one of the
concerts organised to mark the G8 summit in Scotland
next month.

David Gilmour, Nick Mason, Roger Waters and Richard
Wright will play at the Live8 concert in London's Hyde
Park on July 2, one of five masterminded by pop star
Bob Geldof to draw attention to the plight of millions
of poor Africans.

Pink Floyd, famous for their film The Wall, in which
Geldof appeared, and albums such as Dark Side of the
Moon, broke up in the 1980s after personality clashes
between Waters and the rest of the band.

My Friend Tim added this:

I really hope the concert is televised!!!

I also hope this inspires them to make one last tour all together.
I'd love to see them live just once. And with Roger back in the fold,
it should add a lot of life that was missing from Delicate Sound of
Thunder/The Division Bell as well as all of Roger's solo works.

I'm as giddy as a schoolgirl right now.

I'm, giddy too, Tim.

Just Because it's Friday

With there being crime scene tape and a lonely radar gun, I don't think this picture shows the whole story.

New Link

A new drug link. It's Erowid a site maintained by a couple with the very interesting names of Fire and Earth Erowid (obviously not their given names). The site claims to be neither for or against drug use per se (they have a section on how to say to to POlice searches and how to talk to cops) but is meant to educate and promote the responsible use of drugs.
