24. Nah, it's my fault. I shouldn't have mentioned what I would
good at if I had lived 150 years ago.

(I always had plenty for my kiddos with more to spare and a constitution that would endure it.)

11. I put out streetlights.
about 2-3 a week on the average.
Actually, the bulbs don't seem to burn out.
They will come back on spontaneously, sometimes, as I ride past them.

I have always envied those people who just *knew* they wanted to be a doctor or whatever.

Oh, unless we're talking regular talents... don't have one of those either :(

Well THANK YOU for helping my self esteem this evening LOL!

Edited on Mon Oct-18-04 09:56 PM by Heyo
To make 4 rolls, a bottle of Ketamine (Forte Dodge of course), a 40mg Oxy, half a Xanax bar, and a half a box of whippits *DISSAPEAR into thin air* in a mere 10 hours time. :-)

Although don't ask me to demonstrate, I only did this as as part of my youthful transgressions.

52. Story?
More like "stories"

When I was about 21 that was a normal Saturday night for me.

Ah, the good ol' days.

Now I am so happy to just sit home with my girlfriend and snuggling with the cats watching a movie. My JX-305 keyboard, my records and turntables collect dust, and that's kind of a bummer.

But man, my crew and me.. we used to rock the jam. ;-)

House parties.. raves.. I actually had a residency at this seedy club in Miami for a while...

I miss some aspects of that life, but not others... it can take a lot out of you pretty quick.

54. It is surely interesting...
"like shit that a bad acid trip doesn't even compare to"

But that's like comparing apples and oranges.

No similarities between the two.

Except in one sense, but more with with Ketamine: There are not words in the english language that can accurately describe the experience. No matter your level of intelligence, either you've done it or you cannot understand it. That is just the nature of it. I have beaten my brains out before tryin to explain what it is like to people.. but it just doesn't work.

55. one of my friends described it pretty well for me one time
telling me the details of going in and out of the "trance" -- and how when you're coming out of it, it's like the pieces of the story that was in your brain, slowly start to break apart.

he told me one time, how when he was at a dance club, there was this larger lady in beside him and that she had no legs. he was looking right at her and she had no legs!! she was a ball to him, and he was convinced of it. LOL

of course he told it a lot better than i can...


sounds interesting, but not something i'd want to dabble with. but i do enjoy hearing folks' stories.
