Disagree. A solo is there because the guitarist wants to showcase something, that's not always showing off. Some of my favourite solos are slow, it's not always about shredding 15 notes a second. Melody > shredding.

Unforgiven solo is fairly easy if you sit down and try it. Wherever I May Roam and Sandman are other ones to try.

How inspirational. :lol: Anyone who blames their death on cannabis is an idiot. If you're a responsible person you can enjoy it safely, it's just like alcohol. If you're an idiot it will affect and ruin your life, but just as well I'm not an idiot then isn't it. If you compare the ED50 (amount of drug usually taken) to the LD50 (lethal dosage of a drug) of cannabis, it's one of the safest therapeutically active substances there is.

Do you deal with a lot of marijuana overdoses in your job? Edit: Oh, and just so you know, i'm perfectly "grown up" thanks. I live in a house of my own, drive my own car to work every day, pay my own bills, cook my own food and make my own decisions. Aside from that, i don't live in a ghetto, which means my likeliness of getting 'capped' is pretty low. Also, seeing as my older brother is the person i buy my weed from, i'd say i don't really need to lose any sleep about him shooting me for the price of an 8th. Your post sounds like the usual propaganda - that or a badly scripted episode of CSI. Believe what you want, but not every person who smokes a spliff once a week is going to end up getting shot by a dealer when they're "scoring their next hit" as you put it. The more i read it the more it really does sound like a bad hollywood movie. My father has spent more than half of his life dealing with marijuana addicts as part of his job. I didn't read his post because that was small but I do know that marijuana causes a lot of harm to your body physically. You're an adult and you make your own decisions so I'm not going to lecture you or demean you in any way...but there are dangers to using marijuana. @Merc: If you are serious about wanting statistics abuot marijuana OD'ing and such then I believe I can get some for you. (I don't know what they are...but I know that my father has them.) I'd like to see you get ANY statistics on a cannabis related death. I think there's maybe one case of it, and it's under dispute anyway. Chucking a whitey != OD'ing. EDIT: Info from http://www.erowid.org Contraindications: Avoid Driving - While there has been little formal study into the effects of cannabis on driving, it is generally a good idea to avoid driving while under the influence of any psychoactive or intoxicating substance. Several studies have shown that drivers who use alcohol and cannabis in combination are far less capable than when taking either substance alone. Some studies have shown that cannabis causes impairment in driving performance, but that users often are aware of the impairment and compensate by driving more carefully. Addiction Potential: Regular use of cannabis can lead to psychological habituation for some people making it difficult for them to quit. Studies have estimated that between 5 and 10% of those who try smoking cannabis will become daily users sometime during their life, but most of these smokers will have given up the habit by age 30 and few remain daily smokers after age 40. Most people do not experience signs of physical addiction, but with regular daily use use, mild to medium withdrawal symptoms usually occur for less than a week, but can extend for as long as 6 weeks. Long Term Health Problems: The most common negative health impact of regular cannabis smoking are lung and throat problems including: coughing, increased frequency of throat and lung infections, and reduced lung capacity. There are concerns about possible long term carcinogenic (cancer causing) effects of cannabis smoking, but the results are still somewhat controversial. It can be safely said, however, that health risks increase with frequency and duration of smoking anything. Poisoning: There are no confirmed, published deaths from cannabis-only poisoning. There are a small number of people who report serious cannabis allergies which cause unexpectedly intense reactions, throat & lung irritation, etc. Heart Issues: Because cannabis increases heart rate, it could potentially increase risks of heart problems in those at risk of heart disease. One study found that cannabis use increased the risk of heart attack in men over 40, but its findings were weak and based on a very small number of individuals. In a large study of 65,000 individuals in California by Sidney et al in 1997, cannabis was not found to increase mortality rates among users under 50. Mental Illness: Several studies have indicated that cannabis use (like many other strong psychoactives) can precipitate neuroses or psychoses in those who are already at risk. Studies have also shown that cannabis use does not appear to increase the risk of psychosis in otherwise healthy individuals. Sure, there's a downside, and I'm not saying it is healthy. But you can guarantee I'm not going to die from smoking a spliff, with a smoking gun in my hand because I've shot my dealer to get my fix.

I'm aware of that, but it's a chemical being pumped into your blood nonetheless. Too much of anything can kill you. /me hides chocolate No need to hide it. Eating enough grass could probably kill you.

Not even an adrenaline high, or a runner's high? Adrenaline can kill. Too much of it. Like speed. Not that kind. I mean the kind you get before sky diving or bunjee jumping or something Isn't it adrenaline that causes panic attacks etc?

I'm not really anti-drugs, apart from the bad stuff like herion. I'm not saying there's anything wrong with getting high, just that with solvent abuse, there's a huge chance you'll die.

That's a little bitter don't you think? I've got a lot of mates who are gearheads, and as long as they don't bother anyone else I think it's cool. Just guys having a laugh.

Plus there's a good chance you can die every time you do it. Freezes up your throat, you can't breathe, and you die. Don't be an idiot.

The kung-fu gunfight at the end of Equillibrium = *drool*.

Oh, the hilarity! What's wrong with dying your hair?

You mean Ritchie Blackmore? Or am I missing out and is Satch playing with Deep Purple? Yeah, Satch was the guitarist in Deep Purple for a period. No clue when or for how long though. It was in the early 90s. Blackmore dropped out of a tour mid-way (as he does), and Satch filled in.

So... my the video camera on my phone only records in .mp4 and .3gp, and I want them on to my PC in .avi or .mpg format - does anyone know a decent converter? The ones i've tried in the past haven't worked, so I was hoping for some recommendations. Thank ya kindly.

ooh forgot them. And 10 Years After. Seen them both last year ^_^ If I go to see Ash this year, it will be my 4th time. They're a cool live band.

Deep Purple, Rainbow, Rush, Pink Floyd, UFO, Wishbone Ash, Yes.

The Ibanez RG is mainly for overdriven sounds, and the body will matter a whole lot. Solid bodies, semis and hollow bodies sound alot different. You should check out Rondo Music. High quality guitars for low prices because of no middle man. Check out these... http://www.rondomusic.net/as820semihp90nat.html http://www.rondomusic.net/harm1semifg.html http://www.rondomusic.net/as1000.html That last one is a bargain. Set neck, maple body, gorgeous finish. Should suit you nicely. I'm looking for something quite a bit more expensive, by $900 max I meant I want to spend from 800-900... I'm not saying those are bad guitars, I just want to be sure I'm getting something very very good that will last me a good while that I could play in a band possibly. I was looking at Gretsch's earlier, and they look incredible. Problem is, the cheapest is over $2000... I'm looking for something mid-range. Thats what everyone says about Agile guitars. Replacing the pickups and getting it set up will make this a high end guitar that you won't need to replace. Look for user reviews on them. The reason the prices are so low is because they're sold direct - No middle man = no price jackup.

I actually think they're great. Just good, fun music really.

Eminem - Fack That song scares the [cabbage] out of me, but it's funny as hell.

I spoke to a guy who works in a piercing studio, and he has everything pierced (and i mean everything, the guy has 5 piercings below the belt). He said the most painful (and by far) was his nipple - i think it has the most nerve endings or something. Still, better nerve endings than bell endings.

Or jump and turn so both blades are perpendicular, and you lean away from the direction of travel. The blades will knock up ice dust, which is useful if you want to antagonise your enemies.

You're a weird kid.

That has to be the least valid point I've ever heard. I'm sorry mate, but on the weird-o-meter, posing as a ninja outweighs changing the colour of your front.
