| Introduction | First let me say that I'm bullfightcritic on AIM, where I have an excellent reputation for producing the sort of drivel which passes for wit on the internet reliably and with the highest standards of desperate need to be liked. Out of grim necessity my school is sonoma state where I study political science. They aren't famous for anything but they're not infamous for anything either. That's actually the school's motto, except it's in latin on the crest; when in doubt the socially aspirant lower middle class go with the extremely corny. lately and of even grimmer necessity I have taken a not particularly impressive degree in history. It's on account of that dubious achievement that i'm going back to the well of tedium and mediocrity for another bucket of odium and ignominy. |

| Interests | Please accept as an article of faith that my position with regard to drugs cannot be articulated without recourse to special pleading, faux-bureaucratic quango and a brief abstract of a great body of technical ultra-boringness. The drugs I take have until recently included great whacking gobs of painkillers and downers, the odd dexedrine, occasionally mushrooms in season and not ever under any circumstances marihuana. The drugs I take currently are nil, which is why i'm doing my email at 3.30 in the morning. This is a result of a resolution never to wake up without any notion of the whereabouts of my pants on a crosstown bus in the early afternoon except during the social season rather than anything sordid like impecunity or a desire for self improvement. |
| Favorite movies | The drugs which I will take going forward are those which I have never heard of before, those which sound extremely dangerous, those which bear an edgewood arsenal or blackwood arsenal provenance, those which are evidently or reputedly so suicidally dangerous that they are only fit for madmen and those which cannot be obtained in the united states by any means. I intend to establish centers of excellence for the obtainment and promotion of the aforementioned drugs with a view to losing a great deal of money and humiliating my ancestors. Phase three will consist of building on these strengths to establish lasting ties in the community (of pushers) and synergistic public/private partnerships (with corrupt and illegitimate foreign government and the dept of waste management) to establish new benchmarks for the efficient allocation of shame which may then be applied to punks and bitches who think they hard, but they ain't. Ultimately, I intend to streamline the drug taking program to include only those drugs which are briefly stable under exposure to atmosphere at room temperature. These are to include the 3,4 substituted-cathine-ones, but with our primary emphasis adrenochrome, which is produced from legal and widely available epinephrine and argentous oxide or similar oxidizing agent in a reaction which is spontaneous at room temperature (and turns pink in solution as the reaction takes place - way rad) and then begins to decay immediately. The advantages of adrenochrome as a focus of our long term (pro) drug policy are manifold and agreed upon by seven out of ten dentists. It is only illegal briefly prior to consumption as each dose must be prepared from innocuous precursor materials as a special batch. Any unconsumed portion can be expected to decompose completely into a legal waste product during the time it takes to be arraigned on misdemeanor charges. |
| Favorite music | Adrenochrome has the advantage of a gnarly folklore arising from unfounded speculation by Dr Hunter S Thompson and the research of Hoffer, Osmond &al, 1955 which found that it while it impaired one's ability to make sense or drive a sedan on the road it had the potential to enhance many subjects ability to drive a sedan across the lawn. The same study may have further shown that adrenochrome may have Increased the tendency of certain subjects to goose their research partners' wives on the bottom and laugh at the spectacle of another person being maimed in a horrible accident, though it is unclear how their method excluded the subjects tendency to do these things anyhowThe primary advantage of adrenochrome as a recreational drug is the near impossibility of synthesizing it in a large scale, or trafficking in it profitably, of controlling microbatch production by users with no formal knowledge of chemistry, or making it cost more than a milkshake. also in its favor are the fact that it sounds like an authentically good time (kind of like LSD if it didn't take itself so bleedin' seriously) and the technical novelty of its status as perhaps the only psychoactive compound (excluding certain polypeptides) which is a zwitterion, an ion which contains its own positive and negative functional groups in aqueous solution. Imagine the snob appeal of turning down a proffered line of coke out of an affected disdain for drugs which are not (i)zwitterionic.(/i) Priceless. Thank you for your patience during my quite necessary recourse to pseudo-quango and frivolous use of serious science for silly purposes. I trust that the foregoing has provided no useful information about which drugs I do and served only to diminish me in your esteem. |
| Favorite books | My favorite hangout or watering hole in the city is the 65 club on turk in the most pissed-upon quarter of it is on a crack dealing corner and containing as it does a collection of individuals who look like they might have been pushed out of thunderdome by gentrification. My next favorite hangout in the city will be whatever yours is. Whereabouts in oakland are you situated? I fly into OAK on Tuesday and whoever picks me up may have some adrenochrome, or a milkshake, my treat. |
