No, not at a gas pump.

At the Whole Foods produce section.

You'd think those Earth-lovers would be a bit more mellow.

Live and learn.

1. If you lit up a joint they would have crowned you king on the spot.

If I used any of the stuff I been posting to hurt people or just for my own wealth, I would be extreamly wealthy in luxury or status.

In every case of 'work' it was 'just care a little less, just slip a little further to the other side'


There are many people that find balance in work helping many people, and being able to work on areas that can add help to many people.

For me the thing that I would not back down to was complete disregard for any system of justice, then smear because a gang of vigilante thugs did not believe in having a just system to enforce law, from that I tracked that back to the entire establishment status quo desire of different rules for different people, or anarchy.

There should be laws as just as can be, and since people are not perfect also mercy. I learned they attacked the people that fought for those ideas of justice and compassion. And after learning that, seems people should know that is what they are doing.

What else could you do? Go work for them? Why would a person do that?


However I will be collecting the beer and travel money and many experiences due. Even if nobody owes it.

3. I'll also point out that everybody at the friggin grocery will get their panties in a friggin wad
if you shoot the friggin turkey in the case to make sure it's really dead before you buy it

They'll all act like they've never ever seen a twelve gauge before

I just don't know what's become of this country lately

6. The friggin turkeys in the case usually don't have heads
So I'm pretty sure they're friggin dead.

But I could be wrong.

8. It's not the cigarette.
It's the way you've been eyeing the casabas.

You're making people nervous.

10. I don't even know what a casaba is
PSA: If you a Google Image Search for casaba, make sure 'Safe Search' is on.
