Cool Whip Cool Hwip Cool Whip Cool Hwip You're eating hair!

People like you really piss me off. Cannabis is NON ADDICTIVE and it doesn't screw up your life unless you let it. Having an obsessive personality, on the other hand, does screw up your life. I know MANY people that smoke pot, some that are even on Dean's lists that smoke pot. My dad smoked pot for 15 years of his life and it didn't harm him. He's the network administrator for an entire school district. My mother also did for relatively the same amount of time. She's a professional cake decorator. Don't you ever stereotype people that smoke pot. I'm starting to enjoy the middle school health class scare tactics that you're using. The FACT is that cannabis is a non-lethal drug. Your personal OPINION is that it is bad for you. Don't mix your opinions with facts.

You know I'm starting to really doubt that you have any idea what you're talking about. I picked the About.com article to look at and all the negative side affects, aside from the inhalation of smoke (which I already listed as negative), are short term and only occur when you are high. The ones that were listed are actually what makes getting high enjoyable and most of those are only negative when taken out of context. I doubt you have even smoked pot before, because if you have, I think you would better understand what I'm trying to iterate. Try not to nag something you've never experienced, especially when it's not unhealthy.

I can see that happening, but I think since I listen to such a massive variety of music (from classical to acoustic to metal), I doubt that would happen to me. I don't sit down and listen to them EVERY time I'm at the computer or have my iPod in, but they're a band I could listen to no matter how I'm feeling and that's what I love about them. And because I'm a drummer, the percussive capabilities that Danny Carey holds blow me away every time I listen.

I'd like to see some of these "studies" you are talking about, because every study that I've ever seen has shown that smoking moderate amounts of cannabis is not harmful. The ONLY affect it would have on you is that it is unfiltered, thus small amounts of tar would go in your lungs. I smoke once or twice per week and have never "forgotten small things" and I certainly do not have depression. Saying that cannabis leads to depression is complete bogus. Although I do agree on the acting weird to other people for no reason part. That only happens when you are actually high, though. That's half the fun of smoking it.

I'm compelled to hit you very hard with a sledgehammer for saying that.

The fact that you can control how much tobacco goes into your cigarette makes it much better though. I can make very small cigarettes that get me through the day rather than smoking a few larger filtered ones.

I smoke. I think that if you feel the need to relax, smoking is a great way to relieve stress and anxiety. If you want a healthier way to do it, roll your own cigs. A pouch of tobacco gets me 80 cigs out of 5 dollars. After I got sick of spending nearly $5 per pack on Marb Reds, I decided to roll my own. They're not healthy, but they don't have as many chemicals and added junk that filtered cigs do. One or two per day is NOT going to shave that much off your life. It's the people that smoke a pack per day that are killing themselves. Removed, please don't recommend illegal substances ~pryomancer

Over 20,000 hockey cards. Although I haven't been collecting since I was about 13 or so.

Just let it go, he's not going to stop. Ignore him like you would a small annoying child. "It's not the cards your delt in life, it's how you play them"

'Atta kid. I'm torn between Time by Pink Floyd and every song Tool has written.

Ours was the Baldwin-Woodville Blackhawks. Our hockey uniforms used to be the Chicago Blackhawks ones. They were awesome. A town in the northern part of Wisconsin who I actually played multiple times each year for tennis has a weird name. Rhinelander High School Hodags. A Hodag is a resurrection of the restless spirit of dead lumber oxen. The Hodag is a 200-pound, seven foot-long, lizard-like beast covered with horns.

I bought my first MP3 player, an 8GB iPod Touch, for $50 from a friend 100% un-used 3 weeks ago. I think they're great, but I wouldn't justify spending more than $100 on any MP3 player.

I'll talk to the other guys in the band, but for now they will not be available for download, unfortunately. Thanks for all the positive and critical opinions expressed so far. Keep checking the profile for news on the release of the CD and for the other two songs to possibly appear in the future.

Dude, you run a mile in 16 minutes? That's like walking the whole way... Being a runner myself, I can tell you to start slow even if you feel like crap, KEEP GOING. Run a whole mile at the slowest jog you can do, but don't stop running. Keep your breathing even and deep and eventually just increase your speed. There aren't any magic tricks to running.

A tasty Colt 45.

Although I absolutely hate his drumming and think people make all too much of a big deal of him, I do think that it's quite unfortunate that this happened.

Yeah he has only been doing it for a small amount of time, he's getting a lot better than he used to be. Thanks for the good replies so far :thumbsup:

I know plenty of homosexual men and none of them proclaim to have chosen to be gay. It just happens. Whether it is triggered later in life, or it happens at birth, it is not a choice. I have never known a gay person to EVER say it was just an offhand choice. Why would anyone want to choose to be something that ignorant societies shun and limit rights to?

If this should be moved to another thread, please let me know. Well, I've been in a band with a 2 of my really good friends since last December. We have 1 (ONE) guitarist, 1 (ONE) Bassist/Vocalist, and 1 (ONE) drummer. I play drums in this band. We started recording/mixing this demo in the last week in June. It is a 4 song demo and will hopefully be released in the next 2-3 weeks. We recorded with a guy who is quite a professional at this type of thing. He has been in a band that played in Los Angeles and usually takes trips out to California to mix bands. He also owns two music stores in the Twin Cities area. Anyways, the deal is, we would appreciate to get a larger listening/fan base, and I thought this might be a good place to get the word out. I'm not asking for you to buy a copy of our demo, but if you have a MySpace, please add us and give the 2 songs we have up a listen to. If you have any criticisms, please do so via PM. Any other comments are welcome to be posted here. Thanks for your time. -Range_This11 http://www.myspace.com/ataraxy1metal

What's wrong with driving a Prius? I had a buddy of mine that drove from Des Moines all the way up to St. Cloud to visit me, and he only used 3 gallons of gas. That's a 5 hour+ trip. If I could afford to buy one, I would do it in a heartbeat. And Starbucks ain't that bad either. Hippies do suck though. Personally I hate pacifism. It serves no purpose.
