I understand that the situation in the US is quite tense at the moment, like you said, the mainstream media doesn't draw us the full picture of what is really happening over there. Will Obama be re-elected? And in general, what do you think, where will the current situation lead to?
some asian lady rear ended me going about 40 miles per hour in a SUV. I had my new G37x with less than 1,000 miles. $25,000 worth of damage and needed 160 parts replaced. Essentially the whole back of the car was fucked... but the insurance company would not declare it totalled unfortunately.
so its true that asians cant drive like they show us in movies?
I forgot something... I like lucid dreaming and everything about dreams generally. You know about lucid dreaming and if so then have you had lucid dreams? I've noticed you've been experimenting with some dmt and stuff- have you had dreams after taking such stuff and if you did see any dreams then were these somehow different, more psychedelic kind of dreams?
How long are your poker sessions straight in general ? 1 hour, 2 hours or 3 hours and then a break for 15;30 minutes? At which point you feel that its not +ev to continue and you should rest or do smt else for a while?
After much experimentation I find that 2 hours is ideal for me. After about 1.5 hours I start to notice small deteriorations in my play, but I want to push myself a little still. I can do 2 hours fairly easily, but feel like I played a lot after.
I try and play like 2 or 3 of these sessions in a day. Best to take breaks in between.
Sorry if already asked, but favorite movie & TV-series?
Yep, asked :D, Deadwood for series, and Shawshank Redemption for movie.
I got a new camera for Christmas, going to try and get some pictures of the city of Baltimore. I mention because The Wire seems to be popular, and I live 45 minutes from Baltimore.

Pretty much every body is mad as hell about politics. You could ask anyone, Republican, Democrat, conservative, liberal, extremist, environmentalist, etc... the system has gotten really out of control and is it's own beast now that represents nobody.
Official statistics have Obama approval at 44%... you have to consider 12% of the population is black, and they will support him 100% no matter what he does. Too hard to say will be re-elected when the Republican candidate is not known yet.
The current situation is leading somewhere highly negative, but nobody knows what it will look like. I think the financial situation will start having real impacts on people's lives coming up, and the financial situation of European countries as well.
Globally, there is no where to hide in a financial sense. The dollar, euro, and yen all have severe fundamental problems, and other currencies have a much smaller footprint.

Asians in America are by far the worst drivers. After this woman hit me going 40 mph while my car was stopped, she asked me seriously: "Do you know who's fault the accident will be?"
Strangely, when I was in Macau, Hong Kong, and Taipei, the drivers seemed pretty good! Maybe it is only American Asians?
If you are looking for a good driving school, I would recommend Tak On, in Hong Kong:
Have you ever played poker when you were totally wasted? If so, what do you think, how much have you lost?
When I was in college, I had like 4 or 5 times where I came home drunk and won huge amounts (like 2-3k at the time) in sit and gos. It was pretty crazy... I used to joke with my friend we gotta get fucked up and play more often.
Such a nice feeling, wake up with a terrible hang over, and then ohhh did I play poker last night? Did I dream I won $3,000? Nope, it was real!
I believe it just to be luck, but I've never really gone on a chip dumping spree when drunk.

I used to be able to induce them by falling asleep with the back of my head directly on 1 pillow and my face towards the ceiling. I've only done it 3 or 4 times, but it happened everywhere this time.
Cool feeling, it's like you realize you have entered the dream world and have some control over it. The key is to get into the scene and live it. If you are constantly thinking, holy shit I am lucid dreaming now! It will fade fast.
I noticed no side effects from DMT 30 minutes after. No flash backs or any noticable differences. Maybe 5 minutes of it, wasn't long enough to damage my brain :D
Hey guys, I am going to end the official answering of questions 2 days from now, so if you have further questions please post them soon. I might occasionally check the thread at later dates though.
I am back home now, it's so crazy how some habits I automatically have in Estonia or America and do not think about it...
- In Estonia I always take off my shoes in my apartment. When I got home it has never even occurred to me to take off my shoes.
- Americans post less on social networking like Facebook. When I am in Estonia and doing something, I'm like ohh cool I will update my status for that. In America, I think that seems retarded to update my status.
