I'm so glad I took that picture out of the company album before even more people saw it.

the legalization of marijuana is on my mind today.
i find it silly that we think that marijuana is more harmful than alchohol, cars or cigarettes.
i think it's sheer hubris on the part of humans to think that we even have the right to outlaw a plant, or what other humans do with that plant. it's a plant for god's sake!
the propaganda machines, like the DEA, extend their laws and beliefs across their border. now they are extraditing canadian citizens for selling seeds to american growers. they also front money for "research" insitutions that only churn out more propaganda to a public that has the appearance of not being able to decide for themselves. and *that* is exactly what i believe they want.
and did you know that technically marijuana is a psychedelic drug? yes, it is. psychedelic drugs are non addictive. they do more than just alter a person's mind. they help expand it. i feel that making psychedelic drugs illegal is the same as making books illegal, and that it says a lot when a person's government does not want their citizens expanding their minds. it reeks of control to me.
and further still yet, i believe that what people do to their bodies is not something that governmental law has the right to cover. drugs that are illegal remind me of sexual practices that used to be illegal.
and tha's all folks.

I once melted the soles of my shoes by resting my feet on the heater.

oh, and taxes are on my mind as well.
i resent the fact that some people in suits, living thousands of miles away from me, insist that i am a member of their tribe by birth, and that i must pay them money in order to go about my life without apes with guns around their hips coming and hassling me.
i mean, where do they get off? i was born on this piece of dirt, and now i must pay the so-called "owners" of this piece of dirt, money?! puh-leeze!
i understand where the taxes i pay go. health care, police service, roads, utilities, arms, guns, war, control, .... the thing is, i do not want any of those things. and you know what? i don't think i need any of them either.
i simply do not wish to:
a) be a member of their tribe any more.
b) pay the dues that members of their tribe are forced to pay.
simple, right? well, no, actually. according to them, i have no choice. sounds like slavery to me!

Death. I've seen so much this last year. I was just looking at a picture of an assembly taken in 1951 and 90% of the ones I knew there are dead. Almost all my uncles and aunts are dead and so many other people are dying that I know. It's just a few years left for me and my brother unless we are very lucky. I hate the way life flies by. I guess I need to take each day and enjoy what ever comes along.
