still read books like the shadow of the torturer.
mug babies for they milk money..
or give myself to fits of passion
klean up at scrabble and life
exact my revenge on fools who've done me no wrong-
wear my opponents down with ill beats
eat my lunch
elastic flows keep peeps at bay
do more things than i do

not quite right

some greedy 'herbal supplement' companies pulped the stems and branches of the plant and added it to their formula. this resulted in some people getting liver damage. this was mainly confined to one German manufacturer

traditionally ONLY the root is used. Fijians, Tongans, Hawaiians etc have been drinking this stuff for many generations and have no health problems from it.

i drink kava made from freshly pulped root. i find it delicious, but can understand if you don't. :D
i find it a much friendlier substance than alcohol.

see this article:

"There is no convincing evidence so far indicating direct kava toxicity to the liver when consumed using traditional methods."

ah fair enough. . Yeah I used to try and stomach it, back when I would do just about everything.. that reminds me, there are still a few legal things I was meaning to try...anyway, I couldnt take enough kava without feeling sick for it to ever have any noticeable effect... so kinda missed out on it.

Do they have a place in melbourne like the kava hut here in adelaide? Not keen on the kava, but it has the most awesome atmosphere of any of the places in town. . . Chilled music, lotsa couches, can go there and do anythin. . they even have a shelf full of games like connect 4 hahaha

dude that place sounds SICK

i've never heard of anything like that here. shit, i'd almost consider visiting adelaide to drink some kava there :) that's the ideal atmosphere you want for kava drinking...and it goes to show, at a pub there's brawls and yelling, but everyone's chilled when it's kava being consumed

i had to drink kava pretty regularly for a week before i could notice it take effect, perhaps that's why you found it hard to 'break through'.

i reckon taking the 404 and a spare set of batteries into the kava hut could be ideal for a night of mellowed jamming :shock:

I usually wake up for work around 3:20AM and then I collect a lot of money for other people in exchange for a small amount of money. I play outside sports like basketball and football sometimes. I been going on the internet a lot lately and unfortunantly been giving beatmaking a rest. I am currently taking two antibiotic pills a day due to a tick bite, I Eat 2 or 3 meals a day, and usually shit about once a day. Oh yeah, I enjoy TV also.

haha, some of your posts are funny..

well me i'm a full time college student majoring in Business Management. I'm working part time but I call it an internship because I don't really get paid much, it's just for experience tho. I'm a Sale Rep / Customer Service Rep / Assistant Manager @ my work (it's a small family-owned mattress factory)

i have my own apartment, my own car so more than likely, by the end of the month, i don't have a lot of money left. I save my money little by little just for the hell of it.

oh yeah, i just bought my SP404. It will be my first hardware piece, ever. I've only used FL Studio on my laptop so far.

i love photography. i have my D70 with me most of the time.

that's it about me :D

I do all kinds of shit when not making music. Last week was my friends birthday so our friends rented a limo to smoke trees in and went on a fat wine tour in Napa. But I also travel to visit friends up and down the west coast a lot of the time, which always leads to some digging. I draw and paint a lot and always carry a little black hardback sketchbook with me when I'm on the bus or B.A.R.T. I roll around the bay doing work with my friends smoking backwoods and freestyling with them over my beat tapes in the car, and I still skate every once and a while but that shit kills my joints and I ain't fittin' be crippled like Chris Reeves when I'm older. :D

i normally scratch, argue with my girlfriend, watch tv, surf the net.

im kind of anti-social and generally dislike my friends the majority of the time. i don't drink that often but i smoke weed and do coke a bit. i like conspiracy theories, zombie movies, japanese women, talking shit to people, taking photos, finding music.

stuff like that, nothing normal but nothing special.

Waddya do when you're not producing?


Mainly going to uni and work for my own very small company making lowbudget videogames. It's sounds cooler than it is though, because I'm still in the process of finishing my first commercial game(s). I did make money helping out other developer teams, also making independent and lowbudget games.

I'm probably very much a nerd. :roll:

well I'm kinda patriotic here and usually drink my local brewery beer which is called Aldaris in latvian which means Beer maker in english. I heard they are selling it even in Canada (some people have seen it there). It is not the best bear speaking about the quality but otherwise its very cheap and satisfies me :)

Some times of course I drink well known beer labels but to me they are quite the same when I am drunk I cant tell water from beer then I dont give a f.

btw. we here have one very very very cheap beer brand that is called "Optimal Line" those forties are solled in 2 litre cheap plastic bottles (i dont know how much that is in us) and the whole bottle costs only 80cents in us currency. now thats a hella beer I drunk it only once and it tastes like shit. :d

some drink it every day. fools. haha :)
