  1. So you're takin' better care of your body Becoming more aware of your body. Responding to your body's needs. Everything you hear and read about diets, Nutrition and sleeping position and detoxifying your system, And buying machines that they advertise to help you exercise. Herbs to revitalize you if you're traumatized. Soaps that will sanitize. Sprays to deordorize. Liquid to neutralize acids and pesticides. Free weights to maximize your strength and muscle size. Shots that will immunize. Pills to re-energize you. But remember that for all your pain and gain Eventually the story ends the same... You can quite smokin', but you're still gonna die. Cut out cokin', but you're still gonna die. Eliminate everything fatty or fried, And you get real healthy, but you're still gonna die. Stop drinkin' booze, you're still gonna die. Stay away from cooze, you're still gonna die. You can cut out coffee and never get high, But you're still gonna, still gonna, still gonna die. You're still gonna, still gonna, still gonna die. Still gonna, still gonna, still gonna die. You can even give aerobics one more try, But when the music stops playin', you're still gonna die. Put seat belts in your car, you're still gonna die. Cut nicotine tar, you're still gonna die. You can exercise that cellulite off your thigh. Get slimmer and trimmer, but you're still gonna die. Stop gettin' a tan, you're still gonna die. You can search for UFO's up in the sky They might fly you to Mars where you're still gonna die. You're still gonna, still gonna, still gonna die. Still gonna, still gonna, still gonna die. And all the Reeboks and Nikes and Adidas you buy You can jog up to heaven and you're still gonna die. Drink ginseng tonics, you're still gonna die. Try high colonics, you're still gonna die. You can have yourself frozen and suspended in time, But when they do thaw you out, you're still gonna die. You can have safe sex, you're still gonna die. You can switch to Crest, you're still gonna die. You can get rid of stress, get a lot of rest, Get an AIDS test, enroll in EST, Move out west where it's sunny and dry And you'll live to be a hundred But you're still gonna die. You're still gonna, still gonna, still gonna die. Still gonna, still gonna, still gonna die. So you'd better have some fun 'Fore you say bye-bye, 'Cause you're still gonna, still gonna, still gonna die.
  2. after a particularly long drug binge, a friend and i decided someone needed to make a nose douch and a lung brush... know if they make a lung brush?
  3. i tried to watch that, but it was like watching that blair witch movie, but on a really tiny screen...
  4. about a year ago i remember going to two shows in san francisco, a couple of shitty bars and finally ending up at my old bar... last thing i remember is telling the bartender (for the 164th time) how much of a crush i have on her and that i wished she wasn't gay... wake up the next day back in the east bay, with a bad hangover and more money in my pockets than i left with... i found this when i walked into the kitchen:
  5. you need a reason to sit at home and drink by yourself? that's gotta suck...
  6. what dio you title the thread? iommi...
  7. 22nd and international...
  8. earl scruggs was fucking amazing... he is old as hell... i think he has a set number of string plucks left in him before he croaks... i managed to spend the entire set about 10 feet away from the stage... i was mega stoked... gillian welch is really fucking boring live... we watched like 5 or 10 minutes of her, then had a beer fight... steve earl was also fucking awesome, although he didn't play 'i don't want to lose you yet', which bummed me out... looking forward to tomorrow... *edit* lens- it's 2;11am and i just got home... i went to two shows after the bluegrass fest today- therefore no room mate hitting on...ing... however i did spend most the show last night licking her neck when she wouldn't give me my whiskey back...
  9. You just have to find the right taco truck that's located near a liquor store. One night, after a Club Hot show years ago, I found out that International and High is the spot on a Saturday night for hot and heavy taco truck action. There were about 300 braceros (cowboys) and journaleros (day laborers, aka chuntalones) hanging out, all decked out in cowboy gear, eating tacos and blasting Norteno music...quite a sight. The one in the Goodwill parking lot on International in the twenties is good, too. Also, the weekend Laney flea market comes through if you're lazy and don't want to go too deep to get a dollar taco. There was a taco truck at 32nd and San Pablo for years, but I haven't seen it since I moved back. That wasn't the best hangout spot, though...I used to just grab my food to go and head back to West Oakland. Taquerias and taco trucks are few and far between north of the lake, and I agree with you on the sit-down joints with beer. El Farolito in Fruitvale is pretty good, even better than the SF ones. I still agree with Saze, though...taco trucks truly define Oakland for me, somehow. What's your favorite East Bay spot? Quoted post [/b] my band practices a few blocks away from that truck... i eat there every wednesday... i might go so far as to say that that's my favorite truck in the beast, although all the trucks on international are within a few shades of badical... also, word to the 12oz station at the plane shit...
  10. lungfish is the shit... one of my favorite live performances ever... i was sober and by the end of their set (which was like an hour and a half long too) i felt stoned...
  11. yes, but a taco truck is no comparison to a good sit-down taqueria with chips and beer...
  12. i had a dream that i lived in the mission again (three doors down from my favorite taco shop) the other day and when i woke up i was all stoked to go get a burrito... it wasn't until i got up, got dressed and walked out my room that i realized i wasn't there... not being down the street from my favorite taqueria is reason #5492 that i hate oakland...
  13. earl scruggs, steve earle, and gillian welch... sunday i'm seeing emmylou harris and dolly parton... i am stoked... if any bay area kids are heading out this weekend, come say hi to the punks (look for black clothes, tattoos and lots of budweiser) and look for the drunk wearing either a pop's or hammerlock hat... say hi and get a beer! http://www.strictlybluegrass.com/2005/artists.shtml
  14. i got tired of reading the responses, cuz OZer's like to bitch, but i'll say this: 2 grams of blow in a weekend is not gonna flip someone's lid... niether is smoking more if someone is already a fan of the herb... sounds to me like girl has had at least a bit of history with this, yes? if so then anything, or nothing, can set shit off... if she actually seems to be a danger to herself then get her into a lock up (72 hour mandatory in the states, dunno what the limeys got) been in the 72 myself twice, and for the first several hours you're either pissed as hell, or scared shitless, but after that it's a damn good thing... if she's already seeing a doctor about it then that's awesome... if she can acknowledge that something ain't right then that's the best that'll happen... tough it out... it's a bitch seeing friends going through shit you don't understand, but thaty's the way it goes... be supportive and be a friend... another note- if she has any "habits" making her stop can be real fucking bad... detox can make head problems waaaaay worse...
  15. bottom of the hill blows... the beer is too expensive and warm...
  16. every hulk game so far has bored me into a coma within 20 minutes...
  17. tattoos and piercings are played out... it's all about whiskey spinal taps...
  18. i need to get on 12oz more often... fucking bummer...
