Reefer Madness

I know everyone read this book six months ago when it came out but I was in school so I just got to it. I think it's worth reading, it's quick and there's some neat information in it. There's a short section on migrant farm labor which is interesting but doesn't really even begin to touch on the problems. The section on porn is really the best. It's fascinating because it shows how quickly a monopoly can develop and once it does how hard it is to regulate in any meaningful way. There was one more section on pot. There weren't any big revelations but it did point out that viagra is probably as much of a recreational drug as pot.
I remembered that I said I was going to review the new Holly Golightly cd a month ago. It's a live set and if you're already not a big fan who was going to buy it no matter what I would skip it. Spend your money on God Don't Like It.
I've found some cool Mp3 blogs but I want to follow them for a little while so I know that they consistently put interesting music up. I have found that most of the blogs that claim songs are "mad" or "sick" tend to be rather shallow on the range of music, as well as the analysis.
