When you smoke marijuana, you are in the moment and you are happy. You forget about any worries of the past or the future.

And I don't really drink alot of booze, alcohol will kill ya... but I smoke all the pot I can find, I don't smoke it all at once, I just do a little bit at a time, and I uh, I used to take acid but I quit around 1971.

Well, I started out as a musician, so when I was about 10 years old, I was already in a band.

Because the pot takes the edge off the adrenaline, and it also clears your mind of it, and then you can see things a lot clearer.

Whenever I do anything, I need to take 15 or 20 minutes, maybe longer, to regroup.

You look at Cheney, Rumsfeld, Karl Rove, and Bush - if you saw them on Halloween, they wouldn't need a costume. You'd give them a treat and compliment them on what great-looking demons they were. They are demons. There's no doubt about it.

As soon as I discovered weightlifting, all I wanted to do - my plan in life - was to work out, lay on the beach, and get high... smoke dope. And that's really what I'm doing.
