The War on Drugs starts at Foot Locker By JOE DONATELLI Scripps Howard News Service 14-JAN-04 Stunning news from the world of science _ the same family of chemicals that helps marijuana smokers catch a buzz might also be responsible for "runner's high," the joyful feeling that some people experience when they exercise. Researchers from the Georgia Institute of Technology and the University of California Irvine spent three weeks following Phish around the Midwest in a rainbow-colored bus inside which they smoked an ounce of kind bud a day and scrawled their findings on the inside of an empty case of Old Milwaukee. Kidding! It was a twelver of Natural Light. According to Reuters, researchers studied 24 men who biked or jogged for 45 minutes and found that they produced high levels of anandamide. Anandamide is a cannabinoid, which is a naturally occurring chemical that produces sensations similar to those of THC, the psychoactive substance in marijuana...

Brian is a punk. No, make that PUNK. I'm being a complete female about this whole situation. See, he was supposed to call me on MLK, jr. day and we were going to go to the movies or something in the afternoon. He said he'd call me in the AM. Of course, I still wasn't worried when he hasn't called by noon, because as a college boy, he was for sure sleeping. By five pm, however, I might've been pissed. By that, I mean I was. Because I am going through this logistical trouble of getting the car for a WHOLE DAY and he doesn't call. And, no, I didn't call him. Because he was supposed to call me. (like I said, complete female) See, he's called me ONCE. That was the first phone call. I've called him every other time, other than once when I called him and he was in the shower and then he called me and I was away from my phone and I called him back later. So, that makes twice that he's called me, once that he's initiated the phone conversation...

I AM A WOMAN I shave my legs, I sit down to pee. And I can justify any shopping spree. Don't go to a barber, but a beauty salon. I can get a massage without a hard-on. I can balance the checkbook, I can pump my own gas. Can talk to my friends, about the size of my ass. My beauty's a masterpiece, and yes, it takes long. At least I can admit, to others when I'm wrong. I don't drive in circles, at any cost. And I don't have a problem, admitting I'm lost. I never forget, an important date. You just gotta deal with it, I'm usually late. I don't watch movies, with lots of gore. Don't need instant replay, to remember the score. I won't lose my hair, I don't get jock itch. And just cause I'm assertive, Don't call me a bitch. Don't say to your friends, Oh yeah, I can get her. In your dreams, my dear, I can do better! Flowers are okay, But jewe...

MTV is not music. Music is a wonderful thing. It's like a drug really. It's played and it goes in our ear, and we get a vision. MTV is a video and that goes where, in your eye. This is an eye, ear. There's a big difference. And if you get a vision in your head after you listen to some music, and you go home and turn on MTV, and the video they show is the vision you had, kill yourself. You're better off coming back as a lobster. -Lewis Black

Okay, well Brian called me tuesday( last week) and we talked on thursday again and on Saturday I visited him. We've since decided to be just friends because of one thing or another. But I'm really happy. Really glad. I COULD JUST DANCE! No, well, maybe. Brian and I are just great friends, but I need to be good friends, not dating, right now, because so many confusing things. I'm starting to feel a little burnt out, and that bothers me. And i've been really really spiritually dry. I've been trying and trying to pray. Not succeeding, because I really don't have my heart in it. Well, at least I'm trying.

Now, Brian has YET to call me. He's been in Clemson for two days, one full day at least. Now, we're just doing the friend thing right now, right? Well, he should still give me a ring. Mostly because I gave him the gosh darn number. But I'll give him a week or two... school's just started...
