Aceyalone
First you start mumbling, Then you start stumbling
Then your motor skills start malfunctioning
Could it be the intake, Of the chemical that makes your body shake
All over, so critical
First one running to the bar, To get a drink
First one hanging out the car, Chunky pink
Really paralyzed, numb up and sedated, Moving with that rubber band body when you faded
Smoke about an ounce of weed, Drank ten beers, it’s just a
It’s just a Matter of time before you start getting the fears
You can’t steer?
You can’t hear?
You ain’t here, you can’t steer clear?
You wanna go home?
[Chorus]
When you see somebody stumbling when they walk by
Tell ‘em hey kid, walk straight, master your high
Droolin from the mouth with them bloodshot eyes
Tell ‘em hey kid, walk straight, master your high
You took a half of shrooms, you think you gon die?
Hey kid, walk straight, master your high
Can’t remember a thing no matter how hard you try
Master your high
First you smoke indo, Then some chocolate
But the gin and juice got you skyrocketing
Yo, can I get a Long Island? Who got the bud?
Now you wanna lay it down, In the club
You supposed to be a thug drinking thug passion
But you can barely push it to the house, Without crashing
Now, you know better, Than getting that saucy
Trying to mix tequila, With kamekaze and Rossi
Fudge brownies, With ganja butter
Then you wanna hit the bone? Your eyes flutter
Yo, she had a happy face, On her ecstacy
She started touching her private place, While she standing next to me
You shoulda had one drink, Like your girl
Now you in the bathroom, Calling Earl
Oh, now you got the spins, The head-twirls
Underestimate your high, It rocked your world
[Chorus]
First you need oxygen, For circulation
Then you need agua, Rejuvination
Maybe you should eat something, But nothing spicy
Maybe try a cold thai, Nice and icy
Now you can’t leave here, You can barely open doors
Maybe take a shower, Open your pores
Just try to shake it off, Have some activity
Get your shit together, Then come back to the festivities
I’m not saying don’t get high, Cuz that’s on you
I’m just saying if you don’t get high, Then what to do?
See, my friend right here, Can hold his liquor
But my friend right here, Is getting sicker
Yo, he started beef with my homie over what?
Shootthis fool to the house, Go sober up
Maybe you should listen up, Heed the warning
Before you gonna wake up sick as fuck, In the morning
God DAMN! ~ Master Your High lyrics

“Aint no way, to explain or say,
How painful the hang over was today,
In front of the toilet, hands and knees,
Trying to breathe in-between the dry-heaves.
My baby made me some coffee,
Afraid that if I drink some it’s probably comin right back out me.
Couple of Advil, relax and chill,
At a stand still with how bad I feel.
I think I need to smell fresh air,
So I stepped out the back door and fell down the stairs.
The sunlight hit me dead in the eye like,
It’s mad that I gave half the day to last night.
My bad sight made me trip on my ass right,
Into that patch of grass like that’s life.
All of the sudden, I realize somethin,
The weather is amazing, even the birds are bumpin.
Stood up and took a look and a breathe,
And there’s that light that I forgot that I possessed.
Never really seen exercise this friendly,
But I think something’s tellin me to ride that Case B.
The brakes are broken, that’s alright.
The tires got air and the chain seems tight.
Hopped on, and felt the summertime,
It reminds me of one of them moosob lines
Like,
Sunshine sunshine its fine,
I feel it in my skin, warmin up my mind,
Sometimes you gotta give in to win,
I love the days that it shines,
Whoa let it shine,
Whoa let it shine,
Whoa let it.
If I could I would keep this feelin in a plastic jar,
Bust it out whenever someone’s actin hard.
Settle down barbecue in the back yard,
The kids get treats and old folks get classic cars.
Everyday that gets to passed is a success,
And every woman looks better in a sun dress.
The sunshines an excuse to shoot hoops get juice,
Show improved new moves and let loose.
I hear voices, I see smiles to match ‘em,
Good times, and you can feel it in the fashion.
Even though the heat cooks up the action,
The streets still got butterflies, enough kids to catch ‘em.
Ridin my bike around these lakes man,
Feelin like I finally figured out my escape plan.
Take it all in the day, started off all wrong,
But somehow now that hang over is all gone.
Aint nothin like the sound of the leaves,
When the breeze penetrates these Southside trees.
leanin up against one, watchin the vibe,
Forgettin all about the stress thankin god I’m alive.
It’s so simple, I had to keep the song simple,
And when I get home, I’m gonna open all the windows.
Feelin’ alright, stopped at a stop sign,
A car pulled up, bumpin’ Fresh Princes’ summertime.
Summer summer,
Time.” ~ Sunshine (Had to put this whole song up, Classic Drinking Song).

“Here comes a beer, catch all your tears. Drink the remedy forget about your problems. Here comes a shot, lose all your thoughts. Drink the remedy forget about your problems. This one’s on me, fix you for free. Drink the remedy forget about your everything. This one’s on me, got what you need. And take your medicine, you’ll feel better friend. And that’s life, but with these gas prices it’s cheaper to just drink yourself to sleep. Dependency can be your best friend once you know that drugs and alcohol is all you’ve got that’s dependable. It’s enough to make you want to huff the paint again, and lock yourself in the bathroom with the Jameson. Nah man, come down here and make a friend. If you do right you won’t remember tonight. We’re still open so have another cold one. Until you don’t recognize where you woke up.” ~ Ha, This One Is About Alcohol Too

Sacramento Kings Dancers Caught Drunk and Half Naked
![]()
“Caught with their skirts down. Off the job and out of uniform. Make the jokes – bloggers are – but the Sacramento Kings aren’t laughing and are mostly mum on a public relations flap over some salacious photos posted online of its Royal Court dancers.
![]()
In one photo, four women are seen bending over – their backsides showing and leaving little to the imagination. Another shows two women posing suggestively as if about to kiss.
At the least, the incident poses the question: What were they thinking?
The photos appear to be old – perhaps dating back at least two years – but the perils of digital footprints provide a cautionary tale that what happens in Las Vegas – or in this case, the locker room or private quarters – doesn’t always stay there.
“With the advent of the Internet, YouTube, MySpace and Facebook, these things take on a life of their own,” said Douglas Elmets, president of Elmets Communications, a public relations firm in Sacramento.
The story could have legs, he said, if not dealt with head-on and immediately. “They have to come clean,” Elmets said.
“Young girls look up to them and I presume old men lust after them,” Elmets said of the dance squad known as the Royal Court.
The photos are the latest in a string of embarrassments for the Kings. Last year, player Ron Artest had a run-in with the law because of domestic violence, and shortly after being hired, former coach Eric Musselman was arrested for drunken driving.
“The photos of Sacramento Kings Dance Team members circulating on the Internet were published without the knowledge or permission of the Dance Team members or the Sacramento Kings, and they do not adhere to the principles and values of the Sacramento Kings organization,” the Kings said in a statement to The Bee.
The photos show the Kings dancers partying. Some of the women pictured are no longer on the dance team.
The photos found their way onto the Internet when they were uploaded to a picture-sharing Web site – and posted for all the World Wide Web to see.
Access was soon restricted, however, after a blogger downloaded the images and began circulating the photos online to sites such as www.withleather.com.
Soon, other bloggers joined in, and online gawking ensued.
There was talk of shame and disciplinary action. Others offered racy commentary.
“As far as the dancers go, why is anyone surprised?” said one post on the Sactown Royalty blog. “Did people think they wore floor length dresses and went to the 6:00 AM mass on Sunday?”
In an e-mail to Bee sports writer Sam Amick, Mitch Germann, the Kings’ vice president of business communications, declined to say if disciplinary measures would be taken: “We handle all Team Member personnel issues internally.”
Kings co-owner Gavin Maloof also had little to say. “We obviously don’t condone that type of behavior,” he told Amick. “We’ll deal with it internally.”
Athletes have learned the perils of posting compromising pictures on their MySpace and Facebook accounts, with some high school and college coaches checking those sites to monitor their behavior.
Many of those who post risqué images do so on password-protected sites.
At least seven of the team’s dancers have accounts on MySpace – all but one inaccessible to the public.
It’s unclear when the collection of 14 photos – most of them tame and featuring group shots – was posted online. It’s also unclear how it was discovered by bloggers.
“You should always be ready for your close-up,” said Susannah Fox, associate director of the Pew Internet & American Life Project and co-author of a report on digital footprints on the Internet.
The spread of digital cameras makes it easy for anyone – including strangers – to post images online, Fox said.
That could mean added pressure to be on your best behavior, she and others say.
“When someone has a digital camera, you should ask that person what they’re going to do with it,” suggested Mary Madden, a co-author of the Pew report.
“There’s a difference in what your friends might want to see,” she said, “and what your parents or grandparents might want to see.”

History of Mardi Gras, Mardi Gras Info
When is Mardi Gras?
“Mardi Gras, which in French translates to Fat Tuesday, is officially the day before Ash Wednesday. The day is also commonly referred to as Shrove Tuesday or Pancake Day and can occur anytime between February 3rd and March 9th, depending on when Easter is held that particular year. But as the celebrations in America and across the world have grown larger with each passing year, Mardi Gras, has evolved from one day into week long celebrations.
General Info
Mardi Gras…the mere mention of these two words convey thoughts of: raucous celebrations, beads flying through the air, ear-to-ear grins plastered on the faces of millions of revelers, and of course floats parading through the streets of New Orleans!
While these associations are accurate, this is only taking into account only a small portion of what Mardi Gras stands for and means to millions of people not just in the Bayous and Parishes of Louisiana, but across the world.
However, the first Mardi Gras in North America did not even occur under American rule but more appropriately the French. In 1704, France’s King Louis XIV ordered the brothers Iberville and Bienville LeMoyne to sail from France to defend their territories, which include the areas that now represent: Alabama, Louisiana, and Mississippi. Upon arriving, the LeMoyne brothers found the mouth of a body of water, now known as the Mississippi River, and sailed upstream for a few miles until they located the perfect place to build a colony and designated the area as: Point du Mardi Gras.
From these humble beginnings a proud culture of French ancestors known as the Creole population of the Bayous began and prospered, and each year thousands of people become honorary Creoles during Mardi Gras celebrations held throughout the United States.
There are other places in the world who take their Mardi Gras celebrations just as seriously, even if they are not as well known or publicized.
One of those celebrations is the Rio de Janeiro Carnival that is held in Brazil, each year for two weeks prior to the fasting period in the Christian calendar known as Lent. While Brazil’s Carnival resembles and incorporates many of the similar aspects that define America’s Mardi Gras: great music, tons of delicious and fattening foods, and parades, it is distinctively Brazilian due to the amount of Samba dancing that occurs over the two weeks.
Other noteworthy places throughout the world that hold Mardi Gras style parties around the same time as the celebrations are occurring in the United States are: Venice in Italy, Mazatlan in Mexico, and throughout many cities in Europe, Latin America, and the Caribbean.
Mardi Gras today is about various cultures coming together to celebrate the things that make them unique and uniting under the common theme of being people who like to have fun and enjoy each other and have a great time.
Hence the phrase, “Let the Good Times Roll!”"(mardigrasday.com)
