Salary cap? Sounds like you are an idiot if you think that will even things out...just ask the people from new york how well rent limits worked in helping poor people afford housing...oh wait it evened things out in basketball...the lakers dont win all the time?...and just like with everything else, the smart ones ( who also usually happen to be the ones with lots of money in the first place) always figure ways around these so called caps...And if my argument above didnt convince you how stupid you are, maybe your own argument will...what difference would limiting how much someone spent on their team make...if you didnt notice, the marlins, who are at the bottom of the food chain (according to you) happen to be in the world series, tied 2-2 nontheless, with the team that spends three times as much as them on salaries, so basically your whole argument is as valid as if i claimed teams that spend very little on their teams go the world series, the marlins are there arent they?

Governor of California is he best he can do...he is representing more people than any other Senator or Representative...and he cant be President because he was not born here...this is the highest for Arny...too bad cuz he has some good ideas...

Hey guys, I dont know much about what all you believe but i know a lot about what all the major political parties have done to stop the rave act: Most, including Democrats and especially republicans have done nothing, but I know one party that organized a mass emailing and phonecalling to congressman to protest the rave act, and those were the libertarians. A lot of people think that they are crazy anarchists but it aint so, all they stand for is letting you do want you want as long as you dont hurt anyone else. Maybe some of you who are fed up with the normal political parties should check them out, they welcome people of all kinds, especially young people. Some views they have are legalized drugs, prochoice, legalized gay marriage, cutting taxes, staying the hell out of other countries business...basically for individual liberty and personal responsibility, free markets, and a foreign policy of non-intervention, peace and free trade...In my view they take the good policies of Democrats and Republicans and combine them...but im not trying to push anything here, just see a lot of people pissed off at both major parties, who dont realize that they may have another option to try and make a difference...

I dont mean to offend you shroomy, but you are a little misled in your biology and how E works... First of all the brain is a soft mass of nerve cells connected to the spinal cord, the nerves in the brain and spinal cord transmitt messages throughout the body Secondly, it is in fact the dopamine entering the empty axons(where serotonin is stored) of the serotonin that causes the brain damage. Since the serotonin is released in great quantities and destroyed by MAO, the serotonin axons are left empty causing the excess dopamine to enter, and when it reacts with MAO, it creates hydrogen peroxide, and then it oxidizes the axon, destroying it. The brain can no longer hold as much serotonin. This is also why anti-oxidants, such as vitamin-c make the effects of E less harmful on the brain. The whole process has been proven, because they have compared the damages to the brain when they have removed all the dopamine prior, to when they have left the dopamine normal or even increased it, and damage only occured with the dopamine present.... This all leads to the fact that you should not take L-tyrosine prior to rolling because it is a precursor to dopamine, more dopamine is why you get a more speedy roll and may cause added damage. The long term 5-htp regiment is a very good thing and the taking of prozac within 6 hours of the E has proven effective due to the fact prozac blocks the dopamines path into the serotonin axon, thus preventing dopamines adverse reaction with MAO, and also preventing the destuction of the axon, which carries the serotonin. Since serotonin has been found to remain largely depleted for around 24 hours, and prozac protects the axons for 30 hours, the brain seems to be undamaged by the E. Sorry if that was complicated, but basically the original simplified version of the long article was correct, and the corrections made by shroomy were incorrect. Just wanted to inform people so that no one makes any mistakes with vitamins and the pills. If you want info on what pills contain you can look on dancesafe.org, they might have tested some of the pills you take, and they also have a great slideshow about exactly what e does to your brain.

Hey I used to be a big fan of DMB. Ive been to about 15 concerts and after i went to the last one i lost all respect. They used to be about the music, it was 20 bucks for a lawn ticket at the place I mostly go to... I went a few weeks ago, paid 45 bucks for a lawn ticket and got the shortest set ive ever seen, with a jam that lasted the whole concert but only consisted of the drummer hitting the drum every few seconds... everyone in the crowd was not even moving it sucked so bad...Im sorry to say that ill never see those fools, or as it stands now, since Dave went solo, that fool again...its one thing to sell out, but to leave your band members behind is a dick thing to do (i dont know the story behind his album, but after the most recent show ive seen, i just assumed he left the band to make more for himself)...

What time does the list go to? Im down for meeting at any time, and Im not good at deciding things, so if anyone else wants to suggest at time that would be cool.

Hey, I talked to DJSeanPatrick, and he does hook it up, but on new years eve, its 1000 a table of six, not the 300, I would pick up a table, but a few of the poeple in my group dont want to spend the 1000 between the six of us for new years, so I may do that another night. Does anyone know anything going on that requires less money, but is still fun, besides walking the streets?

Hey jonnyb... Im not from montreal, but my girl goes to school up there, so I am there a lot. Just wanted to find out somethings about the city. I cant really post stuff up here because i want some things to be a surprise, and she looks at this, but if you wouldnt mind talking over email, i would appreciate it, just let me know. thanks man

funkmastagbag...dont know how much for the ticket, i got mine for free, my girl hooked me up, but our hotel was 100 a night, and its a suite, a block from the strip. I dont know if they still have rooms, but the hotel doesnt look bad, they give us 3 hours of free drinks everynight too, I think its called the Hawthorne Suites but dont quote me on that, i didnt make the reservations. My friends paid a little over 200 for plane tickets from connecticut, so i dont know where you are or how much youll pay from there. If you want cheap food in vegas go to a buffet...youll probably find one for 3-5 bucks all you can eat if you try. You always have the option of winning enough to stay in nice hotel and fly first class. Buts thats what I know so, i guess its up to you to decide.

thanks for the info clubrat...i guess itll work out, i dont mind spending lots of money, and neither do some of my friends, there are just a few who are gonna be a pain in the ass about stuff, so ill have to work on them harder than the door men i think. Drais does look pretty suite, and so does the rubber party, if its there this year, i guess ill just find some hot women on the internet and tell my hesitant buddies that theyll be at the place we go. on the other hand though, it seems like vegas tries to hide whats going on there, i cant find a lot of info on whats going on this year, tried lookin, found a little, but they never say what year it is on the website and then i find out its for last year or the year before. anyone know of any good websites for info?

hey i think the 18th is a tuesday. I may be tired, but it looks that way, and the 22nd is a saturday, my calender may be fucked, i dont know, just trying to help you guys figure thie shit out, it would be even more weird if its the days i think, so maybe i am just looking at a fucked up calendar. ?

I'm from southington. I looked at some things on the net for prices and they are hard to find, and when i did find them i could tell if they were talking about this year or last, but it seems that just to get into most of the places its anywhere from 100 to 250 bucks, i dont know if that icludes anything. So if you have to buys drinks on top of that then it probably aint worth it. Clubrat do you know what rain is charging? Drais sounds like a good place but i heard that it could be a bitch to get into, especially on nights like new years. I keep on seeing this flyer for MOS having an afterhours thing at house of blues, with oakenfold and a few others, but its 175 bucks. On one hand i dont want to pay 175 to get in if thats all i get for 175 but on the other hand i dont just want to walk around wasted, although that wouldnt be too bad. Either way, all you cprs are going there with your friends, we should definately all get together one night, i dont know what the hell my hotel is like, but i know i have a living room and kitchen and its a block from mgm, so if it seems like people there arent gonna get too pissed, everyone is welcome to come over one night, we'll get wasted and see if we make it out to a club or something

Anyone around here from montreal?

I thought it was too, but recently found out that is probably not true, but if it were i would think that maybe someone would put it in there to get you addicted to the pills. But you shouldnt worry bout that man, you should worry about pma and dxm in pills cuz those are the things that fuck you up. www.dancesafe.org which is a pretty reliable source, is where i got the heroin info.

hey where in ct are you from, im from ct too. But yeah, we have a bunch people going to vegas, could always use more, to party. What hotel are you staying at cuz mine has happy hour 3 hours a day for free. I forget the name, ill get back to you with that.

A word from someone who has taken it...i dont know if you have... but be careful...There are two types of adderall...one lasts for a few hours and the other for 8 - 12 hours. Ive done plenty of other drugs (e, k, shrooms, oxicotton, some zoloft) for fun and not had problems, with my stomach or anything, but i started the adderall xr, which is the long lasting one, and even at low doses when i first started taking it, it fucked up my stomach, i would suggest watching what you eat before you get used to taking it, because you may feel shitty for quite a few hours if you eat the wrong stuff. And i wouldnt go and pop 20 or 30 mg right away till you see how it goes down. Just a warning man, but the other guy is right, you get it for pretty cheap, thats what i pay with having a presciption. But i might add that ive noticed when i had a few drinks and was on this shit, i get wasted faster, but then it seems to plateau and i can drink forever and not get any more messed up.

Has anyone ever used and electric razor? And either way, do they make any type of lotion to make it less irritable on your balls?

Hey thanks for the advice...Ill mention what you said to the people im going with, but i doubt it will sink in. I would be very happy wasted, watching the fireworks on the strip, but it is a special day for me and my woman, and I know i should try and make it better for her, since we are going to vegas with all my friends. Still open for suggestions...

"War has all the characteristics of socialism that most conservatives hate: Centralized power, state planning, false rationalism, restricted liberties, foolish optimism about intended results, and blindness to unintended secondary results" "If you want the government to intervene domestically, your a liberal. If you want the government to intervene overseas, your a conservative. If you want the government to intervene everywhere, your a moderate. If you want the government to intervene nowhere, your an extremist." I am not sure if I was called a liberal or tree hugger, but to straighten things out, I am by far neither, nor am I a conservative. A liberal blaims sanctions, I blaim sanctions, subsidies, taxes and many other things for the problems in Iraq. Food for oil, bullshit, I agree that the program actually increases good old saddam's power. Thats not opening up though. The fact is though that places that have high per capita income, no matter how distorted, or centralized that income is, cannot and do not sustain dictatorships. Yeah saddam may have loads of money, but when you factor in all the people in the country, the per capita income is very low. This directly corresponds to freedom in the country. High per capita income (no matter how it is distributed): UK, US, Canada. Low per capita income: Iran, Syria, Pakistan, IRAQ. Do you see a pattern? This is not a coincidence. So what do you do to oust the leader, the least dangerous way for your country? Not spend billions on a war, that only creates more anger, and leads to more wars, and slows the economy, and puts people out of jobs. You spend nothing, elimate barriers to trade, make yourself rich, as with the Iraqi people, and bye bye Saddam. Now you say, Saddam wont allow this. Well saddam cant stop it, because with such an infusion of trade and wealth caused by this, all the activity cannot be stopped, he cant controll it all, and then when people catch on to the fact that they could be a lot better off, even if they have to chance their live (which is in danger anyways), they will. In the words of a famous and highly respected economist, "If you can find openings to give people good incentives and opportunities, they will respond to the incentives to make their lives better. People respond to incentives...all the rest is commentary." Quoted from Steven Landsburg, in Business Week. Why hurt ourselves to make things for others better off, when we can make ourselves better off, while making others better off too. "The great virtue of the free market system is that it does not care what color people are; it does not care what their religion is; it only cares whether they can produce something you want to buy. It is the most effective system we have discovered to enable people who hate one another to deal with one another and help one another."

No embargos means no embargos, if you only buy oil then those who posses the oil will be rich and powerful, but if you start to trade other things, everything look what happens. Look at Dubai, did they just disover oil, is that why they have built over 100 out of the 144 skyscrappers since 97. No, the reason is free trade enterprize zones. They aint sellin sand, and they havent been stockpiling their money just to release it in the late 90's, no this wonderful free trade thing came about, and made all those people rich. And as far as rights in the UAE, yeah maybe the women cant drive cars, but the gov is not starving people, nor is it not carrying out unfair trials. The punishments may be considered cruel, but there are no reports from any parties that the government is convicting people unjustly. So the only thing you can say there, and the only thing that amnesty international could say about it, is that they are giving out penalties that are too harsh, and i could say the opposite. Dont break the laws, which are for the most part just, and getting even more just, and you wont have to face the severe consequences. Why not have a little accountability for yourself and take responsibility? Dont expect a handout when your poor, work a little. I didnt come from a rich family, in fact i bet my family has less money than anyone else on this board, yet i sit here successful, on a computer, in a nice apartment. Get off your ass and work, and dont sit down and expect a handout. Dont tell me it cant be done, cuz many people do it. And dont expect not to be punished if you do something wrong, thats how people learn. I expect to go to jail and be gangraped all day if i kill someone. So what do i do, i sure as hell dont kill someone. ?

Hey man, Maybe if i was starting a club, i should care where it came from, but Im not. All I care is that its there, I dont have a lot of power in keeping it there, just the drinks I buy and the admission I pay, history repeating itself might be an issue if I was to purchase a club, but like most people, I dont have that kind of cash. The fact that some places get expoited is mainly an issue with the government. In mexico, the people living there who have a say in what is going on is, as far as laws regarding developement, and such are the devolpers, here, yeah the developers may be powerful, but I doubt youll see the people down here give up there sobe, and roll over. Mexico is Mexico, you cant change that. And as to the newsflash that sobe was just discovered ten year ago, its true. Everyone else in the world thought miami was a dump. Now some see it as a wonderful destination, because of sobe. Britney and Backstreet boys are the best music in the world, as far as teenage girls who listen to that type of music go. So the only difference for adult clubgoers, would be that its a different kind of music, but i would suggest, that it may be a little luck people get record contracts, the fact is you dont sell records and make tons of money by being horrible in most cases. And please please call my fonzy. All im saying is that shallow or not, ideals go down the drain when a little cash is in front of some poor dj's eyes. Its a fact of life, unlimited wants. Im not saying its right, but thats the way it is, and the fact that we allow that is what makes where you live such a wonderful place. People get the choice to respond to incentives, and they do. Yeah they may start small, but everyone wants to go big, and then when your big, you may do a small show here or there, but thats it. just another way to think about shit

Some people should think before they speak, and i do not mean that in an insulting manner. Stay with me for a sec: Taxes: Take a class, look at the facts, the undisputable facts. Taxes equal slower growth of the economy, less taxes is good. if rich people get bigger breaks, its because they pay more. Even if you only gave rich people breaks, then the poor people still benefit, eg. rich people buy more stuff for the poor people to make and have jobs. Talk about our great country, and the people revolted for being taxed far less than we are now. Is it fair and democratic to be forced by someone else to give my money away. Regardless, its common fact that taxes only serve to make poor people poorer than they would be without them, why you say, because the govt is a sinkhole of inefficiency, Its not like the rich people are stealing the poor peoples money, because i assumed that everyone who bought something wanted to buy it, and there wasnt some rich guy standing there with a gun telling him to. But the poor people are stealing the rich peoples money now, and the average person's money for that matter. It is said that if you take from peter to give to paul, youre always gonn have the support of paul. If people only realized that others dont get rich by taking money from people, and that everyone can get wealthier by trading with each other, then you would see the most utopian society ever. Instead of everyone being equally poor, as you would get with redistribution of wealth, you would have some people being crazy rich, while others, the bottom of the wealth bracket, would only be rich. yeah only rich, what a shame, instead of everyone equally poor, you end up with everyone having big differences of richness, how unfair. War: You want to stop the war and promote freedom? Get rid of every trade embargo that the us has, even iraq, and encourage trade with them. Wow what a crazy idea, look at china. we did it with them, and in just a short time they have grown their economy at tremendous rates, and wow, they have been a lot less controlling and cruel to their people. If we helped everyone in Iraq get rich, do you think they would stand for a leader who is cruel and unjust, hmmm. So instead of wasting all this money going to war, why not make some money, and avoid war totally. As for the popular belief that popularity makes you correct, just think of how popular the idea was that the world was flat, and tell me thats true. Im out, but if anyone wants some proof about anything ive written or is curious about how these ideas come about, you can email me or just post your question. My intent is to spread knowlegde, not feelings, facts, not opinions. Thinking with your heart, is like breathing with your liver.

1. Who cares where they computer I type on comes from? Who cares where the chair I sit on comes from? And for that matter who cares where the soflo club scene comes from? All I care is where its at now. 2. I am sure everyone is just dying to get out of florida, and miami in particular. And when the mass exodus occurs, property values will fall with it...but back to reality, if a few gay guys, as you put it, could secretly turn this little place into one of the best places to party, then i wonder what would happen if we were to make this place a port and bring lots of business here, and hey maybe tell some really rich folks that its warm down here and they can swim in the water, I dont know, im probably wrong though, why would anyone ever want to party with beautiful people in beautiful weather, where you can experience a melting pot of cultures. Beats me. 3. I personally like to go to a club thats empty and where I dont feel cool, just like some of the people on this list. And the reasoning that people care who the dj is, happens to have a big flaw. The people love to have a big name around, and for just the reasons stated in the same paragraph, because there will be lots of people and they will feel cool. So this phenomenon that you speak of, atracts better dj's not worse. More people = money to pay big name good dj. I mean why even post here and talk if you dont want to feel cool, everybody wants to feel cool with different people. You want to feel cool with the people who say they dont need to feel cool, and others want to feel cool for other reasons. 4. I think its more rewarding for the dj to pick up a big fat check, than fly a few thousand miles to play for ten people and collect 5 bucks. You dont see many good dj's playing for free, and you dont see many good dj's giving out cd's. you see them going where the money is, and thats the way the world is. In an ideal society it wouldnt be so, but hey we are far from that. 5. I thought there had to be something there in order to be able to self destruct? Can this be explained. By the way, sorry to be so negative, just bored cant sleep, have to be up in an hour, and trying to cause a little trouble.

saleen... For an economics major you sure dont think about the economics of it all, maybe the bs stands for something else. Why buy a ferrari, when i can take a mustang, tune it up a bit and make it handle as good, drive as fast, and ride as comfortable? Because its a ferrari, that's why. You can sit all day and bring great dj's, hot girls, and cheap drinks, but one thing you can never bring is Miami, specifically sobe. Why do you see people paying 10 dollars or more for a drink, 30 or more to get in, at a club where they have the same shit as a cheaper place down the road? Because people dont want to deal with drunk guys puking on them, and drunk sluts screwing half the club in the night. They want something FTL cant give, and something you obviously dont have. You stay up in FTL and have your frat party, because no one wants that here. And when you do come down to miami because you hear the good dj's are in town, bring your jacket if its cool, cuz i can tell your gonna be waiting in line a long time. Have fun with your fake id sluts, drunk guys, and 2 dollar pitchers, cuz ill be down here with people who want to pay more for that one thing that people like you dont have...
