Following on from a NBC post I made about emotions being revived and by a NBC post Native made about eliciting emotions (with the Scandinavian beheading video), I would like to add another text for inspiration: The Raven.
At this stage, no matter if you are socially drinking or not, I think we're a lot more open to emotion and appreciating it on a different plane.
Why The Raven and why the version with Christopher Lee?
Well, it's an eerie poem, Christopher Lee has that bitter voice and Poe, like Lee, was pretty cool; it's a pity Poe let the drink get to him. And, after all, this is TRP... there can't be too much more of an emotive and masculine poem read aloud than this.
I hope you enjoy!
PS - please feel free to suggest other poems.

That sounds like an awesome program. All of us concerned about our families our country should first and foremost be concerned about ourselves. Breaking Free of destructive addictive habits and starting to exercise program eating healthy and getting good rest plus plenty of water, it's super important. My exercise plan includes Taekwondo, not because I think Taekwondo is any better than another martial art platform, it is because the teacher is so good. Although hand to hand combat should be avoided at all costs and to be considered a last resort with everything else has failed, is something I believe all white males and woman should get trained in

It's great you're looking after yourself and have found a good teacher. Not a bad point about being able to use hand combat.

I think we all should take the no booze challenge! Imagine if a home invasion takes place and there is just a little bit to much alcohol in your blood. You because you worked so hard that day..drank a few more then usual...reaction time, loading shells...these things could prove difficult, especially with the unfamiliar pecussive shock of shots inside. I've stopped drinking beer, even thigh i make it, 4 weeks ago. Now i drink seltzer at night, it's just like beer but without the beer flavor. It's helped me.
