I concur. However, I wonder how ears might bleed in a good way? {#Ask}

I like TW more than most, but couldn't stand his drunken maudlin ramblings the only time I saw him live.

Still listen to the cds tho'

Holy shit, a drawing. This is in my sketchbook, so I was unfortunate enough to bend this page, the only page I've seemed to screw up. Great.

I need to find my scanner. I also need to do this more often. I'm kind of rusty.

That's why the neocon religious zealot types are so happy to imprison people in the absurd "war on drugs." Drug use is not seen as a personal choice or health issue but as a moral failing because users are reaching their altered state with a substance rather than through religion. Unless the substance is pushed by the pharmaceutical companies that donate to the politicians supported by said neocon zealots. Case in point: Rush Limbaugh.
