A Place 2 Get off on Magnanomous Monday

…More Points bout the stuff they call P.O.T. Plenty of Trouble? I wunder who ever came up with that nonsense anyhow ?

I’ve smoked Marijuana on many different types of occasions and this is what I’ve found to be the negatives:
Intense feelings of well being, most always.

*
Instant relief from depression, believe it er not!

*
Happiness a lot more and always when in the smell of the green room!

*
The ability to feel music as well as hear it &
The ability to play musical instruments with greater intensity

*
A heightened awareness of the world and everything around you

*
A deep sense of inner self, happens as soon as one connects to the spiritual self with the aid of bud…The ability to recall childhood events with vivid clarity, even back to when i was 3 years old!

*
Improved and enhanced libido

*
More intense sexual orgasm, believe it er not although i have been celebate for 5 years so WTF do i know huh!

*
Instant pain and arthritis relief
Pert much mind like unintensefied my kidney pains are when i smoke or eat it.

*
The ability to stay focused on tasks, is not a problem but i have to admit that with certain strains of indica i want to jest relax and fall asleep and get slight S.T.M.L. but only with indigo, with the sativas i find my memory functions in all side way enhanced.

*
No ability to overdose on this stuff, believe me i have tried over the years lol….no werky,,, but go buy a bottle of jack an i can O.D. in bout 30 minutes an kill myself.
No hangover the following day, imagine that to those of u who suffer hangovers.

*
Heightened levels of creativity to paint…..write music and poetry, werk on my body shop projekts er garden er whatnot.

*
A greater appreciation for animals and nature, especially an intunement with the birds singing in the trees round me wherever i go.

*
Enhanced movie and ,moving experiences realizing i am part of a movie also on this planet, jest a player on a stage, not paid very well lol.

*
Enhances thunder storms, and since i chase lightning storms it seems they know i am doing it lol.

*
The ability to laugh when I wanted to cry,,,,baybe jest a tad bit so, believe it er not!

*
Emotional relief after the loss of a loved one, as times like now i find it takes my brdens an makes less of them, especially burdens “caused” by another human being.

*
The ability to cope with situations that would have otherwise overwhelmed me, well some take a volume some take a drink, i take a big breath and go smoke a joint*
The ability to reach a deep restful level of sleep……not a prob here!

*
That’s been my experience with Marijuana and I have no complaints with the negatives =)…seems as though all the positives outweigh all and any negatives that might exist.& it opens up doorways also to days of future passed :)for the sake of imagining rather than passing out drunk!.

GOT BUD? 🙂

i read on the wall street cheatsheet that Around 17 million Americans have an alcohol use disorder and nearly 85,000 people die from alcohol-related causes annually.

mAGNAMOUS mONDAY 6-30-2014

Where things jest Flow an Flow:dA Magnanomous Mondays Blog Challenge Page I wrote this VERY LONG article bout Tigers and Death and Extinctions and all last night and postin’ it in my magnanomous mondays section here

There have been 300,000 men women and children killed in India in the last 200 years by these vicious predators, while tree huggers think the Tigers are “beautiful animals” they continue to feed on defenseless villagers, happiness truly is a world without the Tiger, as many a indian believe 😦 This area in India has had hundreds of man eating Tiger attacks over the last few years, Man is the easiest prey of all for these beasts and lack of jobs and poverty is why these people put their lives on the line to feed their families and go into this area to harvest these Fish and Crabs to sell……………India got tigers, Philippines got crocks, and we got congress, Thieves an selfish pre-historic thinkers.
Tigers love water, are avid swimmers, are extraordinarily savvy and vicious. They clearly do not have much difficulty finding and getting a meal.
In some parts of India, humans paddling a canoe through a swamp will put on a face mask facing backwards strapped to their head, giving new meaning to ‘eyes in the back of your head’ and ’20/20 hindsight.’ that was an old trick but somehow the tigers got wise to it ,,,imagine that fearless backwards mask wearing indian .jeez….
This use to confuse the tigers who can’t quite figure out if they are being observed by their quarry er not — hunters always play the element of surprise, after all….well,,,,,Now if India can get these Bengal Tigers to eat all of their rapists, the streets would be a better place to live. For the women at least. i ‘d say anyo9ne convicted of a kill crime..i am sorry but let them go live in the jungle with the tiger.send them into the reserve for their crimes,,,
.*******

now correct me if i am wrong but , We’re talking about a country where most people are vegetarians and millions worship monkeys or whatever. Cuz they haven’t found their Creator yet?..what a trip huh.all seeking the same thing in the end,,,,,,,,Death, after years of food like the tiger they yes they and evryone you know will be consumed by this big thing i call the tiger really!!!!DEATH –

DEATH KILLS !!!so does many forms of ignorance an neglect!!
at some point we will have driven them into extinction. all da lions an tigers.. believe it er not………
Only 3200 wild Tigers left. Fewer than 900 Gorilla’s left in the wild, This is Incredibly sad. We had, Saber toothed Tiger’s, Grizzly Bear’s, Wolves in North America in the not, to Distant past……..
now realistically speaking from an outside source lewkin in here…..India has more problems than just Tiger attacks. India is about 1/3rd the size if the US with 4 times the population. When you cram that many people into a habitat of man eating big cats you’re going to have problems. However, disease from unsanitary conditions and contagious diseases in general kill a lot more people in India than Tigers do. With a population of 1.2 billion people India is on track to self destruct if they don’t do something to curb the population growth, with or without Tigers. Soon there will be no tigers or any other predators except for humans because we are squeezing them out of existence. I hope they don’t try to kill the tiger now. India has the 2nd largest human population on the planet and is doing nothing about it. I try not to buy anything made in India because it contribute to their unsustainable growth. The U.S.is # 3. Shame on us. China is # 1 and look at the pollution they generate. Another country I try not to buy from. but nevertheless i do cuz sometimes they have the least expensive product offered in the market i am seeking….an i don’t think that boycotting a suffering country is the answer either? jest because they cannot find balance, the werld has to teach them what balance is and also the way i see it the whole werld ought to team up get together and try to have some simbalance of laws regarding “creation of other human beings” etc etc,,,if u live in an environment where the creation of one more human is not sustainable then well, what should they do then,,,should not have more children till the country finds some balance…yes,,regulate childbirth where the earth and werld cannot support that kind of growth. is all there is to it the way i see it,,simple easily done nope not at all, would take the whole werld getting together to recognize the problem and then teach instruct ,,,an oh yeah the hardest part “control” excessive childbirthing….in poverty conditions!.i mean why? anyhow .?
The more nature and man collide the more often such things will occur. Wild animals are wild and will do wild things which is not wild to them…..so the country’s that can’t afford condoms,,,an the story of tony the tiger and the grand ol’ elephant also there an in africa etc etc….why don’t we fly our military chapps in for a good samaritan efforrt and well,,,,,donate a few billion condoms! instead of dollars to them! would be my take on it anyhow, Number one: if the people there would stop reproducing like flies they would have far fewer problems.
~~~~~~~~~
Number two: the reserve parks for tigers an elephants alike etc etc are supposed to be a place where the tigers (what few remain) can live safely. If the people need food to eat they should put pressure on their government to see to this vital need rather than forcing them to either starve or scavenge for food. and the gov should also use military force to keep the park safe and people safe also!
~~~~~~~~Number three: after all the mayhem egotistical “great white hunters” have inflicted on tigers over the centuries to satisfy their own sick vanity my sympathy is entirely with the tigers. This i will tell ya though owner of a buncha Kats,,,,I will say I don’t get in the way of my cat while he’s devouring meat, and he’s just a housecat….is common logic or the damn cat will scratch or bite all there is to it, aan well i have had cat scratch fever once before cuza of a bobcat , i thought i won , but well his teeth sunk in deep into my wrist and i went to er for 48 hours plus over it, so Kitty kats ussually don’t carry the saliva to give one cat scratch fever but well, wild kittys do with jest a bite or a scratch , werd for the wise anyhow if ya ever get bit by one seek medical attention asap,….believe me catsctratch fever is 10 times werse than the werst flu , ya feel like ya are going to die, is a nasty poison, takes a few hours to set in an starts out like flu symptoms…..
To quote Chris Rock “That tiger didn’t go crazy… That tiger went Tiger”. A source of food to a tiger is just that. It doesn’t care whether it’s a human or a hooved animal. As people encroach further into the tiger’s natural habitat, more of these attacks (meals to the tigers) will occur. How do you prevent the attacks – stay out of the tigers domain. What really needs to be done, is to help the people most likely to resort to foraging in these regions. Set aside some land for farming and assist them in planting foods that are akin to the environment. It doesn’t matter if they cannot use the crops for food. The produce could be sold and the proceeds would be funneled back into those communities. An entire segment of a new economy could emerge for these people, due to the support needed to supply, feed, clothe, and house the workers.
Irrespective of the feelings of people who favor the rights of wild animals; in fact, growing humanity is slowly taking over areas where these wild animals reside. In most cases Humanity’s need for more and more farmland as well and simply more safe living space is a human demand as it always will be. sadly enuff,,I believe that the wild animals we read about and see today will end up in both Zoos as well as in secured fenced in large landed reserve throughout the World.
And forests well, ? what will become of the forests of the werld we are cutting down for pulp and paper etc etc, when we could be using a regenerating forever crop like hemp instead, has the werld really gone mad ? i wunder,,,thats a whole nother set of blog the thousands of ways hemp and the oldest living thing on the planet could help mankind with , to survive that is.but well man don’t see that both the mushroom and the hemp plant has many many uses werld wide in the thousands, from regenerating life to curing various cancers and diseas4es, and if ya brave the correct type well, then ya also find out the mushroom speaks! yes it does folks,,,,unlike the scrambled mind on lucid lsd well, the shrooms well, speak a language all man understands..and it is the oldest language in the universes..in a wild way it is chemical synthisis and well, communication through a universal quantum fine structured i like to call the sub atomic werld,,, anyone interested in this werld well, jest stick around with Q a bit and read the cosmic history chronicles pages i gots etc etc…will, help educate ya a bit if ya don’t klnow the information yet in ur lifetime….Many things the world order would rather mankind not know so they can keep us all enslave4d in their economic money game till we run out of resources,,,what then .? soylent green? well, we shall see when all the oceans are dead to have to re generate someday if they can re-evolve,,,and that could take millionss of years, anwell all the animals are gone and there is limited food and water for a starving over populated planet? well? what then folks HUH did anyone even think it could come to this anyhow huh.??over population becoming problems an unsustainable for a planet being damages by the masses…..
When i was a child i used to scuba dive with my parents and friends off the coast of a california and baja and all and well, back in the sixties, ya could plop off the boat out off the coast of sandy eggo in many areas at about 35 er 40 feet and well, back then ya would see abalone on rocks and even tentacles of big lobsters jest hanging round all the rocks and caves for the grabs,,,well, now 40 plus years later,,in the blink of an eye , a friend of mine who dives the coast there a lot now has told me how he has to seek and find an is lucky if some days he even comes home with a catch let alone his limit…so in the usa we have the wildlife and fish and game to hopefully control the masses and the herds of animals in the usa all over the country….well managed and controlled correctly and kept in check the amounts of kills allotted if any is very important for growth of the species also, to many of them over populated is not good also so we keep the herds where necessary here by proper hunting and management controll accordingly ,,,i believe a lot of the same approach we have to hunting in usa should be a world wide thing also,,,,world scale wildlife and game control..!!!!,,,
well that was my rant fer the day …all started with the articles i read last night concering the many deaths by wildlife to humans in india and africa,,,and then studying a bit of why is it happening…Well jest another part of something that needs “controlled” in this werld i am sorry to say we prolly wont get a grip on till it is too late and all of man is living offa some soylent green substance er what not or peas in pods.who knows…….what the future will bring if mankind don’t get a grip the way i see it..Thanks fer reading my rant fer what its werth if anything ? what bout the UN ,well what a joke right now…not to say who er what , i try to keep my blog werld non political, in that aspect , let the people show and do an make whatevr happens in the future happen i say.,,,,hope they do right is all i can say this timer round,,they running outa time once again! in a big way believe it er not ,,an time is accelerating at an enourmously fact not to be able to recovered from wasteful state,,wake up werld……………so is what it is again.have a great weekend folks……Quarksire.
~PS:
~~~~~~~~
Maybe we STOP allowing the Chinese to just digest tigers without regard to its existence. What is the deal with the Chinese men anyway-they must have a lot of problems with their manhood to have to resort to eating parts of endangered animals to be more VIRAL.
PSS: the WAY I SEE IT! ! For all the Gorillas that have had their heads cut off while their kids watched, for all the elephants and Rinos dismembered for their horns and tusks, as their kids went homeless, for all the Tigers cruelly killed for their organs, as their cubs watched, finally the victums get one in against the vile poachers.
****************
PSSS: “The attack underlines the difficult existence of millions of poor Indians an african natives,who make a living by scavenging in forests and rivers, often at risk from wild predators.” The tiger attacks also underlines the difficult existence of what is left of the tigers’ habitat as villagers and loggers continue to scalp the land. How about hearing it for the animals for once?
to bad they can’t freiking talk huh!!!!!!!!!!
well, they do really send clear messages every time we invade thier territory, but well, we humans will jest eventually wipe em all out, jest like abolone an lobster and shrimp and all the rest of the food at the bottom of the food chain u watch humans if ya don’t get a grip is what it is!…. The very essence of life is a constant battle for survival, from the largest animals to the smallest microorganisms. Neither man nor tiger is at fault.,,what do u think bout this or do u ? Large fish eats the smaller fish and we eat the large fish. an also the small fish and what the fish eats etc etc and what eats the fish? the endless looping agoony of killing off a whole species.so well,,..We kill bacterias or roaches with chemicals and the survivors, in response, develop resistance by altering their genes. Mutations and natural selection are the driving forces of evolution. Eliminate man from the face of the earth and in a few million years reptilians will do
what we do today…… believe it er not! jest in a bit of a different evolved way,,,an heck the air they breathe might even change also,,so would all the earth as a result and all of life that wished to stay…well,,,jest a few ranting thoughtz fer the WeekEnd!
GO TIGERS!
Q
**************************
Unfortunately we live in a time when everything on or in our planet that has any market value will be cut down, dug up or otherwise extracted and converted to profit. Greed knows no limit. There is no such thing as “enough”. Short term profit rules the roost and the future is someone elses problem, like our children and grandchildren. Humankind has become the planets worst enemy and they will go down in flames while the exploiters shout “I got mine!”. The coming extinctions will eventually include much of the human race. The planet can not support our abusive practices and we lack the resolve to take the steps necessary to mitigate the disaster we face. Like the song says “Call something Paradise, kiss it goodby”.

Which Way Challenge

Event Type: Photography & Visual Arts

Start Date: Wednesday, recurring every two weeks

Description: A photo challenge that runs every other week. “Which Way” is a term taken from a photo group, which I hosted a few years ago. The idea behind this challenge is to show roads, bridges, walkways, stairs/steps, railtracks. I also allow signs of any nature. Keeping an eye out for different Which Ways gives me a new way of looking at how we move around and what wonderful ways we have found ways to travel as well as beautify our world. The possibilities are endless.

Here is a list of possible subjects for you to keep in mind as you are out on photo shoots.

• Roads (gravel, asphalt, cobbled, dirt), Freeway, Expressway, Highway, Bridges
• Sidewalks, Indoor Walkways (hallways, aisles, people movers, breezeway), Paths (walking, bicycling), Elevators
• Stairs, Escalators, or Steps: indoors, outdoors
• Trails, Railway Tracks, Runways
• Signs of any kind (directional, informational, store front), Maps that are posted as signs
• Parking lots, Private driveways, Tunnels
• Any photo taken from your windshield or within your vehicle or public transportation

Time Out for Art

Event Type: Art & Illustration

Start Date: Thursday, recurring weekly

Description: Originally planned to pair one drawing with one quote every week, this series inspired others who volunteered to post drawings as well!

The weekly posts that followed nudged others to take a timeout for art. By the end of the first month, the Timeout for Art became much more than a short quote and drawing! (Not spam, I promise!)

Many have thanked me for helping them return to their art. Some have discovered talents they never dreamed they possessed! It’s been an honor to witness the enthusiasm from beginners and from professionals as they post their drawings each week.

Join us each week for a Timeout for Art!

Culture Weekly Capture

Event Type: Photography & Visual Arts

Start Date: Saturday, recurring weekly

Description: Hello, Bonjour, Hola, Mabuhay!

Here in The Mixed Culture our mission is to share interesting things about different cultures, inspire others to see, experience & appreciate the uniqueness of other cultures…to go beyond culture. We are inviting you to join us by sharing us your thoughts through photography that depict culture. It can be about your own culture, from the country you’re currently living in, the “pop culture” or your own interpretation of culture. Show us things that you think will help us to understand a culture different from our own. Or, guide us through your photos to some of the amazing places that only locals know about, food worth trying when someone is visiting a new place, traditions to know about in a country….anything you would like us to know about your culture.

So, here’s how we roll:

1. Every Saturday we’ll give a theme for the week. You take photographs according to your interpretation of the theme of the week to showcase your (a) culture. Then, make a new post anytime during the week before the following Saturday.

2. Name your post “Culture Weekly Capture: (theme of the week)” so we can check-out your photos. Write something about the photo (to understand how is it related to your culture) and use the tag “culture weekly capture”. You can also link, Trackback or pingback us so we can hop in to your post.

3. Finally, don’t forget to follow us The Mixed Culture to get the latest weekly theme, and subscribe to our posts via e-mail.

We hope to see your culture through your photographs…Go and Happy Culture Capturing. 🙂

Like It or Loathe It

Event Type: General Blogging

Start Date: Monday, recurring monthly

Description: This will be a monthly event. The theme is likes and dislikes.

On the first Monday of every month for Aussies – the first Sunday for most of the rest of you – I’ll post the specific like/dislike topic; so the first notice will be on the 3rd February for Oz, and the 2nd for practically everyone else.

Tour response/s can be either your like or your dislike of the subject or, in some cases, both; and you must also provide your reasons – although where you post photographs, that may not be necessary … Briefly: unless your motivation/s can be easily identified from your photo/s, write them as well.

Create your ‘Like it or Loathe it’ event post, and remember to include the event tag – lioli. Then add the link to your post in the Comments. To make it easy for others checking entries, title your blog post ‘Like it or Loathe it’ and the number.

You can enter at any time throughout the month, of course; and there will be an award for the entry adjudged best. The rating system is being trialled, here: no voting for your own (is that possible?) – and we’ll see if people respond. If not, I shall be the judge!

The Like it or Loathe it badge is provided on my site: you may upload it to your site if you are so inclined, but there is no demand for you to do so.

Weekly/Monthly Poetry, Story and Photo Prompts

Event Type: Fiction & Flash FIction, Poetry, Photography, General Blogging

Start Date: Ongoing

Description: Every week We Drink Because We’re Post hosts a poetry prompt (Mondays), Photography/Poetry Prompt (Tuesdays), short story prompt (Wednesdays) as well as hosting a once monthly seven day story challenge. There are no real rules beyond being respectful when critiquing and avoiding trolling at all times. Our expectation: to be able to find your post so we can include you in the results posts each week, whether you pingback to our prompt posts, answer the prompt in the comments section, or use one of our tags (which will be included in the prompt).

Our motivation is simple: we thrive on sharing and casting the spotlight on artists. Why? Because we’re artists, too, and each of us has a healthy respect for how challenging it is to develop one’s skills as an artist as well as make a name for one’s self.

Basically, we’ve been there or we are there, and it never hurts to share and promote artists besides ourselves.

Travel Journey of the Week

Topic: Travel

Start Date: Sunday, recurring weekly

Description:  Each Sunday morning I will provide a place that will be the inspiration for a blog post. Together, we will go on a journey by sharing experiences and reading posts dedicated to that place. I’m hoping it will be a great resource for anyone visiting that destination or wanting to take a journey in the comfort of their home. Here is the plan:

1. Each Sunday, a place will be set as the theme (it could be a city, landmark, national park, etc.)

2. If you are familiar with the place, and would like to contribute, you will write a post and title it Travel Journey of the Week: (Place).

3. Your post can be any medium that works for you; videos, photos, descriptions, itineraries, personal memories, poems, ticket stubs, etc.

4. Finally, be sure to provide a link back here so everyone can connect and share their own take on the place.

I can’t wait to see what you share!

My Weigh To Lose: Monthly Challenge

Topic: Health / Weight Loss

Start Date: The first day of each month, recurring monthly

Description:  Monthly challenges created to promote health, fitness, weight-loss and everything in between. There are many people out there that need the support and motivation. These challenges are to help those people out and to create a tight group of support from all over the world.

When working on change, we tend to believe that we are alone. You aren’t alone and a lot of us would like to be a better version of ourselves.

Each month, there will be a total of 6 posts initiated. For example:

First month asks the questions:

1.What are your fitness/health/weightloss goals?

2.Why would you like to achieve these goals?

3.Describe your level of fitness activity

4.Describe what types of food you like

5.Write a post about your current stats

6.Why is fitness/health/weightloss important to you?

Each question should be a separate post (I don’t want to see one post with everything thrown in there because I want people to take some actual thought in their answers. Plus it will make the readers keep up and not have too much thrown at us!).

Each Post should have a link (or use the widget) that links to the My Weigh To Lose Challenge page.

Prizes may be handed out once in a while to a few dedicated bloggers (prizes will be raffled based on who posted each month). So make sure to post for each question and link to the page or you wont be placed in the raffle!

All posts should be written within 4 weeks of each other if it’s a monthly challenge. You should not do 2 months of Challenges in 1 month. The challenge is designed to create life style change based on your goals, so don’t rush it all at once!

Nancy Merrill Photography – A Photo a Week Challenge Our world is a maze of shapes, colors, and images. Without any one of them, it wouldn’t be nearly as fascinating to look at and photograph. This week is all about stripes: stripes in nature, buildings, clothing, anything. What’s the most unusual place you’ve found stripes? This tulip is one of my favorites. It was in a bed with other beautiful tulips and flowers, but this is the one that really caught my eye.

IN A NEW POST CREATED FOR THIS CHALLENGE, SHARE A PHOTO OR TWO THAT ARE STRIPES OF SOME KIND.

Have fun experimenting with finding stripes all around you.  Then blog your finds and post a link to your masterpieces here.

Everyone is welcome to participate, even if your blog isn’t about photography.

Here’s how it works:

1. Each week, I’ll come up with a theme and post a photo that I think fits. You take photographs based on your interpretation of the theme, and post them on your blog (a new post!) anytime before the following Thursday, when the next photo theme will be announced.

2. To make it easy for others to check out your photos, title your blog post “A Photo a Week Challenge: (theme of the week)” and be sure to use the “postaday″ tag.

3. Follow nancy merrill photography so that you don’t miss out on weekly challenge announcements.

P.S. Be sure to enter the giveaway! Seriously easy contest.
