While on vacation in Mexico, Tyler King and I bought a revolver from an old man for $20, so that he could have booze money. We then used the revolver to rob the old man of the money, and ordered him to go find a donkey and a lady of easy virtue for our enjoyment.
Out of nowhere, a mariachi band arrived, and began to sing to Tyler King and I, assuming that we had moocho dinnero (whatever that means). I was attempting to explain to them (LOUDLY) that I had lesso dinnero, when who should arrive but mild-mannered Ray Estrada, nephew of popular television actor Erik Estrada. Ray flashed the family's trademark pearly whites, and the mariachis quickly dispersed in fear.
Ray then asked what we were doing, and Tyler filled him in.
Ray said, "That sounds bomb. I'll wait with you. Hey, by any chance, have you seen popular luchador and folk hero Hombre Secreto around?"
Tyler and I both replied in the negative. Ray said, "I'm going to go find him. Because as much as I'd love to see what happens when the old man returns, H.S. would enjoy it even more. I'll go find him, and tell him to come wait with you dudes, while I man El Cavo de Secreto."
Tyler said, "You're a good friend, Ray. The Hombre is lucky to have you."
That was a pretty F'ed up vacation.

Ray is the greatest. The greatest of all time. He is the Muhammad Ali of the people who pretend to sell sausages at renaissance faires. I am not exaggerating. Women love him. Men want to be him. And he has an awesome hat.
I am not just saying this because he motorboated my cleavage at his birthday party, either, though it was the best EVER. I'm just sayin'.
September 20, 2007
Ray is the mysterious stranger that appeared in our midst one day and changed the way we look at the world... I don't know what that means either, but it sounded cool, didn't it?
And he looks better in a hat than just about anyone else I know. Any hat. It's uncanny.

You Know What Really Grinds My Gears?,
|
The problem with me is that I think too much
Relying on this pen and this ink too much
And I do too much, I'm always on tour
Accumulating points 'til I forgot about the score
And the problem with you is you don't think at all
Your brain is dead weight, so you sink and you fall
You drink and you smoke 'til your motivation's gone
And you know this is true, so you hate this song
The problem with me is co-dependancy
So afraid of the day that you wont remember me
Knee deep in anxiousness, needy like an infant
Escapism, beats, rhymes, alcohol and women
The problem with you? You let yourself stop believin'
And now you're afraid of your own thoughts and feelings
Forgot how to share what i loved most about you
Lost your voice, now no choice but to doubt you
The problem with the people that I stay surrounded with?
They all wanna replace faith with a psychologist
Bring the evolution where the thinkin' is pollution
Where they're swallowin' the balance and they're drinkin' the sollutions
The problem with the people that I wont stand next to?
They don't hear the songs that we sing for the rescue
The keys of life, the basslines of sadness
So people that don't have, reach out and grab it
The problem with sex is self respect calibration
The orgasm serves as your validation
The problem with love is that it lives in a book now
The problem with drugs is that they're too fuckin' good now
The problem with logic is there's too many loopholes
And the problem with truth is that it's usually brutal
The problem is I cant trust most of what I see
So Fuck It! ...all the problems of life must be me!
God gave you a face that could crush a tough devotion,
you left my hands no matter how hard i was holding,
what kind of punishment do i expect for being distant,
don’t expect a second chance and I'm man enough to admit it
the steps i never learned, were lost in my fathers words,
the chances i never gave you, were lost in my mothers journal,
I use invisible ink because secrets are there to keep,
and these seven days weeks have a habit of making you weak,
forget give everything again,
the same traps ripped my lifeline in unforgiving shreds,
so look around you and pick up any pieces you can find,
but i can’t promise the big picture will be finally be right,
I have memories, my roadblock, stopping a new chapter from birth,
the sunny days don’t seem to outweigh the way the night hurts,
faster than i watched myself become a ghost,
the mirror told me lies until my ear drums burst ,
So i lit the short fuse, the explosion killed us all,
so now i sit around and wait for the season to fall,
so involved in love we lost our shot our only chance,
what’s your poison baby, is it pity or romance?
I want this to stop, i reached out, you looked away,
get out of my guilt, you’re not welcome to stay,
I'm acting like we need one last conversation,
or it’s never gonna end, gotta end the fascination,
and I decided, when the dizziness subsides in the endless car ride,
of scenery and blurry skies, i would escape that sky,
chasing us around the country, outsmarting the moon,
i need to get home... i need to go home soon,
before the stairs and front door change places,
me chasing my tail won’t seem so mundane and tasteless,
the way you made life race, the passion in your face,
had 50 years of trying to find a perfect pace,
hiding under the constant depression of your lows and highs,
i had reason, but even more i had you by my side,
when midnight called us away from reading and dreams,
when the blanket fell off your beautiful freezing feet,
my eyes never heavy, ready for the wide awake,
smash into a million pieces, when the last straw would break,
the future is coming, it’s the past in a fancy dress,
upset that I'm not listening or in my sunday best,
You want to baby talk, but orphans like me are tongue tied,
30 miles from new york and I can still see the lights,
holding the horizon hostage, shoot the breeze for moving,
look what it cost us... look what we’re doing.....
I want this to stop, i reached out, you looked away,
get out of my guilt, you’re not welcome to stay,
I'm acting like we need one last conversation,
or it’s never gonna end, gotta end the fascination,
All my friends are getting divorced and i was in the weddings,
maybe my bad luck has a habit of spreading,
It’s a vulnerable place, far from your inner space,
with more love than the handles surrounding your waist,
I'm not going to pretend you know how you to handle me,
but my secret victories are your public tragedies,
i’m teaching myself how to play the drums,
so i can beat the hell out of something other than my tongue,
and its a new outlet, letting myself get out,
from all traps you set up in the underground,
at this level we can finally see eye to eye,
but that’s because we both know how to lie, lie, lie
down and let our demons finally find all their rest,
by whispering, god is the only answer to death,
tough calls and night-sweats, panic driven last steps,
touching on sensitive subjects and your regret,
these kind of songs haunt you, but i really don’t mind,
looking back on the drama makes today feel fine,
drink up, three cheers for all the cheap shots,
the ones you drink and the ones you caught,
behind your back with your ears wide open,
this is me, honest, and I'm run down and coping.....
I'm sorry for bringing it up, here’s some dirt and a shovel,
bury this next to the last year and all of your trouble.
by Adeem
I’m sorry. See I’m 3 months late,
keeping you up to date on my travels and shape,
things have been going great and for honesty's sake,
someimes it's good to sort it all out and get the story straight,
justified by infinite car rides, I’ve had the time to sort and process us,
and I can't say for sure but I think I’ve finally started making some sense and good,
out of these old habits, they don't go away young,
I can't ignore the fact that we used to think as one,
It's like watching the flower grow into old age,
no matter how much water you give it, it fades away,
you lose what you love, nature always make sure,
you bruise when you touch, nature always stays pure,
with her I wouldn't have it any other way,
There's hope in the things good people have to say....
we'll do anything in our power to forget the past,
or we sing songs to make the best moments last,
I grab these recent years anytime I can,
close my eyes and relive the all laughing again,
and I’ve been through this before but it's never the same,
fought the same kind of war, for someone else's name,
I don't want to go back, but something’s pulling me there,
No matter how much I concentrate your ghost is still here,
you never really know....
See, my eyes are giving out from staring into nothing,
They've been looking inside to fix the malfunction,
reliving old moments to say the right thing,
because it's my god given gift of imagining,
what it could have been like,
and what it would of been like,
to build a world as man and wife,
despite that I chose tears without explanation,
standing in the rain nursing my patience,
but then again there was nothing left for me to say,
or at least I was convinced that was the only way,
to get past the cities limits and visit myself for once,
find an audience that mimics the people I trust,
I need to confront the damaged parts of my psyche
so the rest of the world could start to like me,
but first things first, the slate must be clean,
change the things you can touch but leave the rest to dreams,
I seem jaded but it's more like preoccupied,
saving everyone I can in this little world of mine,
It's always been this way, roadblocks and broken toes,
I’m trying to keep it going, cause I know one day I’ll grow,
into the world's best therapist with something to show
it’s all so overwhelming, but you never really know.
I'll be the world's best therapist with something to show
Cause you.... never..... really..... know.
reality check, she doesn't live here anymore, dont

reality check, at some point the connection's gone
reality check... no ...more ...
reality check, she doesn't live here anymore, dont
reality check, she can't hear what your saying,
reality check, at some point the connection's gone

Don't Close Your Eyes
Don't Dream
Stay Awake
My is Paradise is gone and you have thirty seconds to wake up,
From a nightmare with a flooding rush, with memories,
Like this one, caressing your inventive side,
I find pride is my enemy most of the time,
Obsessed with finding answers, guided by voices,
The choices Ive made have been cancerous,
Supposed this, were you, tell me how would you live,
Energy all spent with nothing left to give,
Except a rib and your blessing to be free,
Doesnt sound much like a fair trade to me,
Obviously it was finding the better of both Worlds
No matter how much it hurts and we both deserve,
The company that we keep to let us get good sleep,
Im not weak right now, but its not worth it to eat,
It was never part of the plan to end us like this,
But Im not trying to die for the things I cant admit,
This morning I woke up, the ceiling was spinning,
My eyes couldnt adjust, the sun was beginning,
To pry open the shades and burn through cotton skies,
I reached over to hold you but you were as cold as night,
The room was hot, but your body felt different,
I tried to wake you up, but your head never lifted,
I was whispering into your ear, please dont leave,
She was sleeping in gods arms where I couldnt reach,
Her face was against my chest, the silence was singing,
The song of innocence, feeling like children, again
The moment was stuck, I couldnt breath,
I screamed for someone to help us up hereplease.
Nobody was there, just me and my love,
Wrapped up in the blankets that meant so much,
Touching her skin against mine, the life slipped away,
God stole my heart, but left my body here to stay,
Went to sleep early, You have to be at school by 8
Got out my flashlight to write and not keep her awake,
I stay up to late, always tired in the morning,
Shes kisses me goodbye while im half asleep yawning,
Its not that Im lazy; Ive got things to do,
Not trying to say my art is more important that you,
My epiphanies are killing me, but Im keeping it quiet,
I love to see see angels painting on the inside of her eyelids,
Locked at the legs, if I move she'll wake up,
So I stay in this position till my whole bodies numb,
When the room is still, I write to the rhythm of her pulse,
but its always perfect speed so my thoughts are never rushed,
Sometimes you roll over and try to mumble goodnight,
I laugh because your hair is always sticking up to the right,
Brush it away from your face because your smile is on,
Whisper goodnight my love and turn my flashlight off.

Bring that beat back.
Born in the slums
Run with guns
Glomgold the wicked
never ever one to run
Both feet in the grave
Mad-made, no corporate slave
Leave brothas shaking
Like ODers at a rave.
MF stand fo bad MotherFucker
Stay smoked out like Chris Tucker
Always drinks with a Metal Face
Open hand slap keep his bitch in place
And if officer wanna pull him over
when he's swervin off a fifth of that Smirnoff
He bound to go Mr. Blonde
And cut a motherfucking cop's ear off.
That's my word.

(Moe Green)
Remember back in the day when I gave 2 shits?
Before I packed 2 clips
And was up 2 shit
Tried to deny crime, but what can I say the shoe fit?
LA Times obit that ass
If you fuck with my cash
Half these cats remind me of USC in the summer
- homey no class.
A ski masked superhero in the night
Pikachu beanie on my dome tight
Prowling the streets too hungry
South Central thug dun, way too grungy.
Like Chemical Ali
I got chemicals in the alley
Globetrot with my connecs
like Meadowlark or Rand McNally.
From Korean to the Spanish
But when it come to the damage
5-oh round up the Usual Suspects
Me, Fenster, Verbal Kint and McManus.
Twist the vernacular of this vicious beast
My lyrics molest your eardrum like a Catholic priest
But I ain't holding no crosses and rosary beads
I'm duct taping a cop to a chair and getting the kerosene
YaKnawImean?
(Glomgold)
Yo, Me and Moe Green we never gave 2 shits
We were always up 2 it
We never got paid 2 spit
I’m the Sylar that cut skull and brain 2 split.
You get gone bounce with your crew,
If I’m swiggin the brew,
If I’m downin a Jack even Paul Wall say he don’t know whatitdo
Drunken foo, drunken dream,
Villain workin on another drunken scheme
Drunken sleep walking
Lookin for those dolla bills the c.r.e.a.m.
Screamin, I AM THE MAXX.
Swingin his axe
Cuttin through the hall walls and beatboxin to the wrong tracks.
Lost a leg at the end of the night
Guess I lost the fight
What can I say
All work and no play is just another dull day
Homie you in a ski mask,
Well homie you better be fast
Me and your chick are gonna flee pass
I’ll get to that ass before you even get to see ass
Yo, I’m Just another Browncoat lookin for Serenity,
I’m done makin up obsenities, I require some assembly
Bring back Johnnie Cochran from the dead to beat these other felonies
Make your death look like somethin you saw on Merrie Melodies.
Like a anvil to the dome,
Like the drunk to the poem,
Like Bush still up in your home,
Cause unless you level 60 elf, you about to get pownd

MF Drunk wearin Cerebro
Mind controlling is lethal
Drunk dialin the chick Miho
So good when she feelin evil
Days go quick until you get smoked by the shit
So we got heads rollin to the bar just jokin and shit,
We drinkin til she’s purty, brownbaggin it like Ol’ Dirty
I keep the dialog clear, No need to be wordy
Just keep passin love notes like the Don Juan Origami
Sitting at the bar drinking
lookin’ for the ho that brought me
Mad people thinkin’ that this next drink is gonna haunt me
Ya sippin on Mr. Walker?
Nah man, call’em Johnnie.
(Moe Green)
Cuban connecs
Cubans 'round our necks
Drankin patnaz for life
Like Dino and Ol Blue eyes ressurec
Corner blitz, five oh move to intercept
Coded convo hard to decipher dialect
I just want all my peeps
to eat good like I'm Vincent Chase
Except I'm in a place,
living life mad hec like I'm in a race
No finish line in sight but still livin in a rush
endlessly pushin rock like I'm Sysiphus
We them re-up cats, Warriors with bats,
South Cali Tom Brady when it comes to these Pats.
Ghost Ride the beat, burnin up the track
Johnny be good, Johnny be Blazin to the future and back
(Glomgold)
We just drunks debating between yager or jack,
With a thick stack,
Da boobtube playing “When bitches attack,
And get slapped”
Tell the boy and his blob to keep all that static intact
Cause after this commercial your moms is gonna be right back
So sit back kick back
call in the Wolfe for the win
Tom Hagen handles Five oh
when we taking you in
You’ll end up like Franky Four Fingers with a coarse grin
Cause when we give you the chop it don’t mean your foreskin
about me
Greetings, party people in the place to be!
I go by a lot of names, but most that are close to me just call me Ray. MF Drunk or Glomgold..... its all the same to me.

1. If you owe someone money, always pay them back in a bar. Preferably during happy hour.
2. Always toast before doing a shot.
3. Whoever buys the shot gets the first chance to offer a toast.
4. Change your toast at least once a month.
5. Buying someone a drink is five times better than a handshake.
6. Buying a strange woman a drink is a nice thing to do. Buying all her drinks is even better!!
7. Never borrow more than one cigarette from the same person in one night.
8. When the bartender is slammed, resist the powerful urge to order a slightly-dirty, very-dry, in-and-out, super-chilled half-and-half martini with a lemon twist. Limit orders to beer, straight shots and two-part cocktails.
9. Get the bartender's attention with eye contact and a smile.
10. Do not make eye contact with the bartender if you do not want a drink.
11. Unacceptable things to say after doing a shot: Great, now I'm going to get drunk. I hate shots. It's coming back up.
12. Never, ever tell a bartender he made your drink too strong.
13. If he makes it too weak, order a double next time. He'll get the message.
14. If you offer to buy a woman a drink and she refuses, she does not like you.
15. If you offer to buy a woman a drink and she accepts, she still might not like you.
16. If she buys you a drink, she likes you.
17. If someone offers to buy you a drink, do not upgrade your liquor preference.
18. Always have a corkscrew in your house.
19. If you don't have a corkscrew, push the cork down into the bottle with a pen.
20. Drink one girly drink in public and you will forever be known as the guy who drinks girly drinks.
21. Our parents were better drinkers than we are.
22. Never talk to someone in the restroom unless you're doing the same thing—urinating, waiting in line or washing your hands.
23. Girls hang out, apply make-up, and have long talks in the bathroom. Men do not.
24. After your sixth drink, do not look at yourself in the mirror. It will shake your confidence.
25. It is only permissible to shout 'woo-hoo!' if you are doing a shot with four or more people.
26. If there is a d.j., you can request a song only once per night. If he doesn't play it within half an hour, do not approach him again. If he does play it, do not approach him again.
27. Learn how to make a rose out of a bar napkin. You'll be surprised how well it works.
28. If you can't afford to tip, you can't afford to drink in a bar. Go to the liquor store.
29. If you owe someone twenty dollars or less, you may pay them back in beer.
30. Never complain about the quality or brand of a free drink.
31. If you have been roommates with someone more than six months, you may drink all their beer, even if it's hidden, as long as you leave them one. And you expect a good ass kickin when they find their beer gone!
32. You can have a shot of their hard liquor only if the cap has been cracked and the bottle goes for less than $25.
33. The only thing that tastes better than free liquor is stolen liquor.
34. If you bring Old Milwaukee to a party, you must drink at least two cans before you start drinking the imported beer in the fridge.
35. Learn to appreciate hangovers. If it was all good times every jackass would be doing it.
36. If you ever feel depressed, get out a bartender's guide and browse through all the drinks you've never tried.
37. Try one new drink each week.
38. If you are the bar's sole customer, you are obliged to make small talk with the bartender until he stops acknowledging you. Then you're off the hook. The same goes for him.
39. Never tip with coins that have touched you. If your change is $1.50, you can tell the barmaid to keep the change, but once she has handed it to you, you cannot give it back. To a bartender or cocktail waitress, small change has no value.
40. If you have ever told a bartender, "Hey, it all spends the same," then you are a cheap ass.
41. Anyone on stage or behind a bar is fifty percent better looking.
42. You can tell how hard a drinker someone is by how close they keep their drink to their mouth.
43. A bar is a college, not a nursery. If you spill a beer, clean it up. If you break a glass, wait for a staff member to clean it up, then blame it on someone else.
44. Being drunk is feeling sophisticated without being able to say it.
45. It's okay to drink alone.
46. After three drinks, you will forget a woman's name two seconds after she tells you. The rest of the night you will call her "baby" or "darling".
47. Nothing screams 'nancy boy' louder than swirling an oversized brandy snifter.
48. Men don't drink from straws. Unless you're doing a Mind or Face Eraser.
49. If you do a shot, finish it. If you don't plan to finish it, don't accept it.
50. Never brood in a dance bar. Never dance in a dive bar.
51. Never play more than three songs by the same artist in a row.
52. Your songs will come on as you're leaving the bar.
53. Never yell out jukebox selections to someone you don't know.
54. Never lie in a bar. You may, however, grossly exaggerate and lean.
55. If you think you might be slurring a little, then you are slurring a lot. If you think you are slurring a lot, then you are not speaking English.
56. Screaming, "Someone buy me a drink!" has never worked.
57. For every drink, there is a five percent better chance you will get in a fight. There is also a three percent better chance you will lose the fight.
58. Fighting an extremely drunk person when you are sober is hilarious.
59. If you are broke and a friend is "sporting you", you must laugh at all his jokes and play wingman when he makes his move.
60. If you are broke and a friend is "making sport of you", you may steal any drink he leaves unattended.
61. Never rest your head on a table or bar top. It is the equivalent of voluntarily putting your head on a chopping block.
62. If you are trading rounds with a friend and he asks if you're ready for another, always say yes. Once you fall out of sync you will end up buying more drinks than him.
63. If you're going to hit on a member of the bar staff, make sure you tip well before and after, regardless of her OR HIS response.(I had to edit this as it was a bit sexist. Guys are not the only ones to hit on bartenders)
64. The people with the most money are rarely the best tippers.
65. Before you die, single-handedly make one decent martini.
66. Asking a bartender what beers are on tap when the handles are right in front of you is the equivalent of saying, "I'm an idiot."
67. Never ask a bartender "what's good tonight?" They do not fly in the scotch fresh from the coast every morning.
68. If there is a line for drinks, get your goddamn drink and step the hell away from the bar.
69. If there is ever any confusion, the fuller beer is yours.
70. The patrons at your local bar are your extended family, your fathers and mothers, your brothers and sisters. Except you get to sleep with these sisters. And if you're really drunk, the mothers.
71. It's acceptable, traditional in fact, to disappear during a night of hard drinking. You will appear mysterious and your friends will understand. If they even notice.
72. Never argue your tab at the end of the night. Remember, you're hammered and they're sober. It's akin to a precocious five-year-old arguing the super-string theory with a physicist. 99.9% of the time you're wrong and either way you're going to come off as a jackass.
73. If you bring booze to a party, you must drink it or leave it.
74. If you hesitate more than three seconds after the bartender looks at you, you do not deserve a drink.
75. Beer makes you mellow, champagne makes you silly, wine makes you dramatic, tequila makes you felonious.
76. The greatest thing a drunkard can do is buy a round of drinks for a packed bar.
77. Never preface a conversation with a bartender with "I know this is going to be a hassle, but . . ."
78. When you're in a bar and drunk, your boss is just another guy begging for a fat lip. Unless he's buying.
