    my writing is a little bit of the spunion, but there is some good stuff in there ;-) and yeah, something this guy states that i find very powerful, is that not long ago people used to think planes couldnt work, too heavy to fly - so with application, people can also change their preconceptions...

    Featured Hitchin' Denver to California: What Could Go Wrong? (Pt. 1)

    I was Kicked off AmCrap

    it is pretty damn ironic to imagine a martial arts master, drinkin budlight in a sports jersey on amtrak, ending up provoking a wingnut "who annoyed him" into grabbing his shirt and then laying him out. I mean what do I know, but I thought martial arts was all about internal discipline, or maybe...

    there is definitely some truth to takin the high ground, just tellin a guy like this [I dont have a problem with you] firmly, and nothing else, even more powerful the nastier the bullshit they are tryin to throw on me. this throws em off, and defuses the situation, it has worked for me a couple...

    What are your Top 5/Bottom 5 States?

    The Needle Trauma

    totally agree, very well put. But for real, needle exchange in a park, man it sounds like blurring the edges of satire and real life - but of course we are witnesses to this in so many regards, aren't we? And even more certainly it is not exclusive to California, or the USA. Easy to poke fun...

    So yr good to drink with any men who you don't already know, aside from white men? why is that? Sounds like a very poor generalization, maybe a man's personality is more significant than his skin color.
