Substance D
Back in the Good Ole Days - we knew the were the good 'ole days - their were a few albums, Pretty hate machine for playing Phantstar2, Strong reaction for getting up in the morning, Blood Sugar Sex Magic for entertaining in the other room, and Counting Crows along with Cypress Hill for nights when everybody came back from the Stube smelling like Pork Rinds.
their was also an Author - one book specifically - Philip K Dick, A Scanner Darkly.
Tomorrow I'm going to see the movie, If it hadn't been for the conversation with God sitting on curb in Gastonia - I'd go back to my own Substance D. That conversation and of course being all grown up and married.
Sometimes I get homesick - but it's not just my friends I miss, not just my home I miss, - it's those days that we knew while we were having them - that they were days we would remember forever...
Hoping the movie is at least OK,
Phil

I haven't seen it yet, but I ran out and bought the book on CD (9 CDs!!).
I have ripped all CDs and made a MP3 CD and a copy is in the mythical "box to send to Phil" which actually exists as a box and probaably will be sent (unless you get to Chicago in the next week or 3).
Also in said box:
Initial D packs unopened and extra cards including a new car.
MMC card that came with my new digital camera I got last month.
& more!
It was pretty good. If I hadn't read the book I would have hated it. My advice is a funny cigarette before the show.
