A very well known drug addict and alcoholic is Rick James. He knew he had a drinking problem, and tried to imitate his life in the video. Was the message futile? When the video came out, music was very segregated and may have missed a larger audience, and the message to stay away from drinking.
Give it to me - Rick James
Rick sings about coming home intoxicated, and other times to high for love. His girlfriend does not like him under the influence, and trys to stand up. "say what?"
Rick James could not seem to kick his bad habits, and even named a girls group that he formed, wrote the music for and produced. The Mary Jane Girls. Mary Jane is another name for marijuana.
Mary Jane girls - in my house
Don't get to deep in trying to emulate the personal lives of celebrities, as they tend to get bored and get risky by trying new things. Sometimes the new thngs get addictive, and they can't quit. It could be smoking pot,drinking alcohol, or it could be a heroin addiction. They all usually lead to certain death or minimum loss of career, loss of health, loss of marriage, and loss of life.
Watch out for whom you are friends with because they could be enabling your drugs and alcohol addiction. Alcoholics Anonymous puts you with other alcoholics, and the strength may not be enough to the daily temptations.
Instead of Alcoholics Anonymous, or in addition to Alcoholics Anonymous, you should have a sober companion for the rest of the day.
Rob Tencer is a sober companion, that will keep you away from the enablers and the daily temptations.

drugs of choice is to smoke marijuana
How does a whole generation, and then another generation after them, get the addiction to smoking, then to smoking marijuana.
The addictions could have started in the music you listen to. Let me explain:
A band called the doobie brothers, exploited the use of narcotics and drugs by not only naming themselves after a drug, but using narcotic images on their album artwork. the cover and inside sleeve and middle of a vinyl record had pictures of joints on them.
Why use the highly addictive drugs to symbolize their band, when with the music and talent that the doobie brothers have, they could have been called anything?
here is a couple music videos of their popular hits.
Listen to the music - the doobie brothers
What a fool believes - the doobie brothers
Long Train Running - the doobie brothers
Black Water - doobie brothers
The doobie brothers may have not have influenced the new generation into smoking marijuana, and it may not be as glamorized as it once once, but it is highly addictive, and once you start, it is very hard to stop. Peer pressure might be a leading cause of why young people start using pot, and then after they are hooked, they find others who are like themselves. Addicted to drugs of their choice.
If you find it hard to stop, and find it hard to seperate yourself from your enablers, then you need to call a sober companion immediately.

eric clapton cocaine lover writes in about a lie.
It seems a visitor to this blog, thinks its a lie to say that eric clapton wrote cocaine. He wanted to set the record straight:
"The song cocaine was written and originally recorded by Oklahoma blues guitarist J.J. Cale. eric clapton recorded his version a year after Cale's was released."
eric clapton has recorded several songs written by Cale, including "After Midnight" and "Travelin' Light." In 2006, eric clapton and Cale recorded an album together called The Road To Escondido.
Cocaine is a song written by Oklahoma singer-songwriter J. J. Cale, and most notably covered by Eric Clapton on his 1977 album Slowhand.
This person sure know his cocaine. I think he was in the music business. Go figure.
He added: "Greatful Dead also had a cocaine song, that sold over a million records."
My oh my, it is such a pity and waste of life, that cocaine got transfered into the psyche of a whole generation. Most people in that generation, know all the words to the songs as well. Why do they know the words to drugs and narcotics songs?
I think we are going to get a lesson next about the doobie brothers and their influence on pot smoking. marijuana aka mary jane. Maybe add to that rick james.
Remember if you need help from overwhelming peer pressure, that it is important to reach rob tencer, the sober companion who cares about you. The sooner the better.
don't be an obituary, choose life.
