I applaud this!

And before someone accuses me of being sarcastic... I'm not being sarcastic.

I shouldn't have called it dope. I meant the sacred weed.

Roach · 08-26-2011, 04:39 PM

You just seem so much younger than your age.

Crimson flames tied through my ears. Rollin’ high and mighty traps. Pounced with fire on flaming roads. Using ideas as my maps. “We’ll meet on edges, soon,” said I. Proud ’neath heated brow. Ah, but I was so much older then. I’m younger than that now. Half-wracked prejudice leaped forth. “Rip down all hate,” I screamed. Lies that life is black and white. Spoke from my skull. I dreamed. Romantic facts of musketeers. Foundationed deep, somehow. Ah, but I was so much older then. I’m younger than that now.

Girls’ faces formed the forward path. From phony jealousy. To memorizing politics. Of ancient history. Flung down by corpse evangelists. Unthought of, though, somehow. Ah, but I was so much older then. I’m younger than that now. A self-ordained professor’s tongue. Too serious to fool. Spouted out that liberty. Is just equality in school. “Equality,” I spoke the word. As if a wedding vow. Ah, but I was so much older then. I’m younger than that now.

In a soldier’s stance, I aimed my hand. At the mongrel dogs who teach. Fearing not that I’d become my enemy. In the instant that I preach. My pathway led by confusion boats. Mutiny from stern to bow. Ah, but I was so much older then. I’m younger than that now. Yes, my guard stood hard when abstract threats. Too noble to neglect. Deceived me into thinking. I had something to protect. Good and bad, I define these terms. Quite clear, no doubt, somehow. Ah, but I was so much older then. I’m younger than that now.

It´s not time to make a change. Just relax and take it easy. You´re still young. That´s your fault. There´s so much you have to know. Find a girl, settle down. If you want you can marry. Look at me. I am old but I´m happy. I was once like you are now, and I know it's not easy. To be calm, when you found, something going on. Take your time, think a lot. Think of everything you've got. For you may still be here tomorrow, but your dreams may not. How can I try to explain. When I do, he turns away again. It has always been the same, same old story. From the moment I could talk I was ordered to listen. Now there´s a way and I know that I have to go away. I know I have to go.

May God bless and keep you always. May your wishes all come true. May you always do for others. And let others do for you. May you build a ladder to the stars. And climb on every rung. May you stay forever young. Forever young, forever young. May you stay forever young. May you grow up to be righteous. May you grow up to be true. May you always know the truth. And see the lights surrounding you.

May you always be courageous. Stand upright and be strong. May you stay forever young. Forever young, forever young. May you stay forever young. May your hands always be busy. May your feet always be swift. May you have a strong foundation. When the winds of changes shift. May your heart always be joyful. And may your song always be sung. May you stay forever young. Forever young, forever young. May you stay forever young.

This is part of our global contribution. The drug war has become the preferred foreign policy approach toward controlling much of the world. We export our drug war, our tactics, and, most of all, our DEA.

(Now with offices in Belize, Guatemala, Nicaragua, Mexico, Canada, Panama, Costa Rica, El Salvador, Honduras, Paraguay, Colombia, Brazil, Argentina, Uruguay, Venezuela, Bolivia, Peru, Ecuador, Chile, Antigua and Barbuda, Barbados, Dominica, Grenada, St. Kitts & Nevis, St. Vincent & the Grenadines, St. Lucia, Aruba, Netherlands Antilles, Suriname, Jamaica, The Bahamas, Turks & Caicos Islands, Haiti, Guyana, Trinidad & Tobago, Suriname, Dominican Republic, Cambodia, Thailand, Mongolia, Australia, Cook Islands, Fiji, French Polynesia, New Caldeonia, New Zealand, Niue, Papua New Guinea, Solomon Islands, Tokelau, Tonga, Tuvalu, Vanuatu, Wallis & Futuna, Western Samoa, Vietnam, Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan, Malaysia, Kiribati, Nauru, Philippines, Burma, South Korea, Brunei, East Timor, Indonesia, Singapore, Japan, Laos, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Bulgaria, Georgia, Iran, Iraq, Turkey, Greece, The Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, Romania, Bahrain, Chad, Dijibouti, Egypt, Eritrea, Ethiopia, Kuwait, Libya, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Somalia, Sudan, Yemen, Oman, Pakistan, United Arab Emirates, Afghanistan, Russia, Bangladesh, India, Maldives, Nepal, Sri Lanka, Cyprus, Israel, Jordan, Lebanon, Syria, Kazakstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Belgium, Luxembourg, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Greenland, Iceland, Latvia, Lithuania, Norway, Sweden, Czech Republic, Germany, Benin, Burkina Faso, Cameroon, Congo, Equatorial Guinea, Gabon, The Gambia, Ghana, Guinea, Guinea-Bissau, Ivory Coast, Liberia, Mali, Mauritania, Niger, Nigeria, Senegal, Sierra Leone, Togo, Western Sahara, Channel Islands, Ireland, Isle of Man, Northern Ireland, United Kingdom, Azores, Balearic Islands, Canary Islands, Cape Verde, Gibraltar, Portugal, Principality of Andorra, Spain, Spanish Enclaves (Ceuta & Melilla), Algeria, France, Monaco, Morocco, Tunisia, Angola, Botswana, Burundi, Central African Republic, Comoros, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Kenya, Lesotho, Madagascar, Malawi, Mauritius, Mozambique, Namibia, Rwanda, Seychelles, South Africa, Swaziland, Tanzania, Uganda, Zambia, Zimbabwe, Albania, Bosnia, Croatia, Italy, Malta, Montenegro, San Marino, Serbia, Slovenia, Netherlands, Poland, Austria, Belarus, Hungary, Moldova, Slovak Republic, Ukraine.)

With that kind of presence, we insure that the rest of the world follows our lead. And if they don't toe the line in the way we want to fight the drug war, we threaten to cut foreign aid, or in the case of Venezuela, which kicked out the DEA for spying, we accuse them of allowing drug trafficking.

I'm 56 and I've known hundreds myself. Most are dead now. The two I see almost everyday are the ones I feed. Others call them homeless bums.

You two don't seem like you need me cutting in on your dance card.

All I ask is that you leave a couple of inches between you for the 'Holy Spirit'

We do it for the lulz

I hold no personal grudges against anyone for differing political views. I feel debate is one of the most healthy activities that humans can engage in...

To keep up with the dance analogy.... try to remember the lulz tango is best when two parties are involved

Enjoy yourselves, but try to refrain from it being at others expense.
