*sigh*

One afternoon with Bear and suddenly you're drinking, thinking drinking
impresses anyone, posting about it, and thinking anyone else cares.

Do something else, Mark, ffs.

Unless of course it's non consensual and involves a fair bit of bruising.
Better still if it prevents her return concert on 25th October.

lol

It would have sounded pompous enough coming from anyone else, but from
you that's just a fucking *hoot* :)

Nothing like the evangelical zeal of the newly converted, eh?

PS. we didn't mention booze once ... I really hardly drink at all these
days [1]

[1] I can't honestly say I feel any better for it though; I expected to
feel boundless energy and health and whassname ... but no :(

I didn't say I felt bad, far from it, but I just thought, given how much
I used to drink, I'd feel heaps better when I stopped.

It tastes like *shit*, but have you tried camomile tea?

My mum swears by the stuff [1]

IMHO after years of abuse you also need to start swimming (or somesuch),
every day if poss. I joined the local council pool, only £12 a month, and
worked up to 40 lengths at least 3 days a week. It's a *cunt* for the first
month then it eases off and you can start upping the speed. 'Course then I
binned the gixxer, went back just last week after 4 months off....and it's a
cunt all over again. <sigh>

The end result is greatly increased feelings of energy though.

I'm with you 100% on that one, but it does really seem to work.

Let it go lukewarm and skull it in one, then follow with a decent single
malt?

No, and I won't.  I'd rather be tired then drink that noxious tasting
horse piss.

That's actually very good advice.

Also, and Blaney taught me this one, if you cut out caffeine, and drink
*fresh* (as in freshly squeezed) fruit juice in the morning, it gives a
wake up rush similar to caffeine. I presume it's the fructose.

My problem is I adore coffee :)

I find it gives me bloody strange dreams about running around unable to find
a bog, eventually pissing in someone's front room or similar, at which point
I wake up and make a dash for the en-suite. Unfortunately this is 04:30 or
thereabouts.

I'd be really interested to know what the death rate of E users is
compared to other class A drugs ... I'd guess it would be *very* low.

And, if the government tested it here, as they do/did in Holland, the
rate would presumably be even lower [1]

There's a rather amusing PJ O'Rourke piece about his experimenting with
E.

[1] it's generally the other shit it's cut with that causes problems

Try drinking slightly less then. It's about the only ancient wisdom-y
type thing I've ever discovered that's not total bollocks.

Is there not good research that concludes E exposure does long term brain
damage by affecting the function of neurotransmitters at the synapses?

Then again we believed that taking vast amounts of Acid didn't do us any
long term harm either, and we're all entitled to our mistakes.

I don't much like it on it's own but mixed with something else it
is nice.

I've noticed it's even more likely when sleeping in a tent, particularly

I had 11 days off after the EOSM.  But I'm drinking again now.  It's
just that I don't feel the need to post to UKRM about what I'm drinking
at any given moment.  Because people *really* don't care.

Research has been done, and published on the internet somewhere, the
figures (deaths per N users) went something like:

Tobacco - 50
Alcohol - 5
Coke / Heroine - 1
E - 0.001
Dope - 0.0001

With a note that numbers below 0.01 were below measurement confidence.

No, it turned out to be a load of crap. There's been a lot of research done,
most of the good research has show no measured effect, some of the bad
research has shown that about half the users in the country should be dead
by now.

Heroin & coke abuse usually kills because of the quality of the supply,
and cost.

Well, I know it's UKRM so I'd be quite within reason to post about
something I know nothing of, but yes and I've even had it by choice.

Yeah I figured they'd be very low.

The basic point is E doesn't really do *that* much to you.

> With a note that numbers below 0.01 were below measurement confidence.

The numbers for coke/H are way out, or there's a secret store of very
fit medical H users [1]

I'd suggest it's based on total death figures, rather than percentage of
deaths per user.

[1] I have 1st hand experience of dealing with coke and H users, and the
death rates were stunning

That's as maybe, but I find the whole syrupy texture, smell,
alcohol/mouthwash overtones are heave-inducing, especially when coupled
