…just like the song.
That’s me next to Loretta Nall this past weekend. Not the best pic (we’re both in profile) but
you can find a few more (I did not come out well in any of them) at

If we can do this in Alabama, and I believe we can, we can win in any and every state. Those of you in Alabama, give us a holler and for any of you living in states where Medical Marijuana is not yet legal…I hope you do something like this in your state!
The following was Loretta’s writeup of the meeting on her blog:
Just wanted to say thanks to all of you who made it out to the Compassionate Care meeting on Feb. 3 at Applebees in Pelham. It was the best turn out yet for a working meeting. Six attendees were first timers and there was a great deal of positive energy and fresh ideas at the table.
In all there were 14 attendees and over the course of two and a half hours we came up with the names of four physicians who might be willing to sign on to our letter to Alabama doctors, two possible contacts in the nursing community who might be willing to contact the Alabama Nursing Association for their support, a new patient contact, an experienced advocate on behalf of the disabled who is advocating for the new patient, two possible law professors who might be willing to explain the supreme court ruling to the legal community, committments from everyone in attendance to contact their elected official this week and ask where they standd on the medical marijuana issue and then to report that information back to me and a committment to try and bring at least two people to the next meeting. We also came up with ideas for a guerrilla marketing campaign.
I feel this was the most productive meeting we have had so far and I am looking forward to our next one.
Thanks everyone for your participation. For those of you who could not make it last night we hope you will be able to make it to the next one. In the meantime please look for patients, physicians and other supporters, spread the word wherever you can (we’ll be posting flyers soon for printing and distribution) write letters to your local newspapers on the medical marijuana issue and contact your elected officials to find out their stand on med mj. Please report any legislators answers back to me. If you would like a pre-written script to follow when contacting your legislator please let me know.
Onward,
Loretta Nall

So which one of you is Pac and which is Snoop? For your next video, if you need someone to paint their face up like a clown and spray pop all over the place, I’m your guy.
I’m Pac, ‘cuz i got all kinds of people thinking I’m dead already.
You can spray all the dayglo Faygo you want, but you’ll have to mop it up.
Oh yeah, and clean the carpet.
I noticed you got a Necro link. I like his music but he got pissed at me once for linking to someone who was offering his album for free download. I doubt he’ll invite me over for thanksgiving supper now.
I can see both sides of that.
I’m sure it’s frustrating for an artist to have someone give away your work when you are trying to sell it, but then again I think in today’s new technological information environment the smart move is to not worry about that, give it away and let it be given away, and build a bigger buzz that results in concert ticket and merchandise sales.
Right now I’m listening to a lot of Immortal Technique, as you can probably tell. Greginoz sent a clip to Stuart and he put it up at LFV, and then I looked up the artist and downloaded a few other clips and put one up, then Tom Blanton sent me the link to the video from Paris, and Andy mailed me yet another Immortal Technique clip, so now a bunch of people have seen those, and just to give you one example Titanium Girl said “I want to go see Immortal Technique,” and she probably I guess never heard of him before this.
If she ends up at his show she might buy a T-shirt and bring a friend or two and they could all buy T-shirts, or hats, or what have you, just as an example. Multiply that times whatever.
So if he wants to make more money when he tours, I’m thinking he would be wise to be cool about video clips getting passed around. Besides they’re already on youtube, so all I’m doing is mirroring them.
Actually, I have heard of Immortal Technique before and I think he wants his stuff out there – he would probably give you a high five, Paulie!
I like Zombie Mob even more though, they are awefuckingtackular.
Paulie – it must be cool to know Loretta Nall – that is one cool chic!

Rock on…
Yeah, I get the feeling we have a lot in common. “dancing with the devil” and “peruvian coke” – it’s like I wrote those, but didn’t put them on paper!

Cool, I’m looking them up next

I collect cool chicks. Tag, you’re in my collection!
BTW have you got set up to post at LFV yet? You can also co-blog here if you want, it’s only just me by default but it doesn’t have to stay that way.
Also – if you had not had a chance yet check out the Liberty Cap shows with Kubby and Phillies and let me know what you think.
Peace,
