I wish to invoke here all the gods and goddesses, animals and spirits
that the hunter-gatherers saw while smoking weed, so the Christian-
Jewish god, that male chauvinistic god, is laid to rest.
We may use the beat of African drums or the soaring vibration of the
didgeridoo...
Is that why the Christians want pot banned? That PROHIBITION makes
less sense than god, and CRIME & VIOLENCE are part of another real
crisis we face for which they got no solution.
Bob Marley inspired that energy we need in a sad world. This music
also has the energy...
"I think the fact that people from all over the world can feel the
same vibes and energy listening to what somebody created in totally
different cultures thousands years ago may mean that we all share the
same human element. Makes me happier cos I know we are also just
animals (Libya). Peace to the human element in you."

IS DRUG TOLERANCE EVIL?
Nobody knows exactly WHY, nobody can say WHO, but this world is a
spaceship on AUTOMATIC PILOT. Mexico is falling apart, our prisons are
overflowing, our communities are broken, while they happily go to
church to pray. Let me guess, THEY ARE PRAYING FOR PEACE AND
PROSPERITY THIS YEAR.
Well, we had someone who openly spoke against it in 2007...
"Australian Prime Minister John Howard launched a harsh attack on
drugs and drug users as he campaigned in Brisbane Wednesday -- and he
didn't spare marijuana. He also claimed that his harsh anti-drug
stance has been vindicated by swings in Australian public opinion."

And perhaps our best fuel is...
POPCORN!
I was reading the nutrition in it and it's simply amazing. Mind you,
homemade is best...
http://nutritiondata.self.com/facts/snacks/5356/2
Best thing about it is that it's very satisfying so you don't feel
like eating Christian food. ;)
That's my resolution for the new year: EAT MORE POPCORN.

And those cars weren't at all like the cages the Christians love to
drive...
The MGs were the last cars to inspire driving. Only thing left is a
motorcycle or bicycle but they make it deadly.

Wait, wait, IF I WERE GOD, you wouldn't get off the hook. While you
may need to drive to your office, I'm sure you could ride a bike
somewhere such as to the market or any other errand around your
community.
