TWC Artist Chat / Re: Smooth Jazz Returns to the format!
« on: April 23, 2016, 09:44:12 PM »Hey Guys,
Spoke with Brian Picard and was told that YES ~ Smooth Jazz has returned and is being used at least one day a week ~ SO FAR!
I'm happy that they're throwing us a bone at least once a week.
The Production music is cool, but it's nice to get some variety.

It's frightening when you see what many of these pharmaceuticals can cause a person to do or become. A buddy of mine's girlfriend turned into a completely different person due to a "medicine" her doctor told her to take. Remember, drugs are drugs, and just because a doctor tells you to take it, that doesn't necessarily mean it's "safe."
Check this out...
Chantix, Suicide, and the Point of Prescription Drug Warnings
This one's kinda horrifying...
The Best Drug for Quitting Smoking Can't Shake Its Suicide Stigma
I love how that second one tries to prove that "it's not the drug." PUH-LEEZE. We all know how drug companies rig studies and pay others to rig studies for them... WE'RE NOT THAT STUPID.
Most people who kill themselves while not on drugs do so to escape some sort of pain, either physical or emotional. They feel it's their only way out.

I've lost a few friends to suicide over the years, as I'm sure many of us have.
Not only that, but I was once very (and I mean VERY) close to taking my own life, so I fully understand why people do it. EVERYBODY has a breaking point. Besides, many different prescription drugs (ironically enough, many "antidepressants") cause suicidal tendencies.
I knew a guy online who killed himself about 10 years ago, but he had terminal Cancer. He was a dying man as it was, and he didn't want to deal with the agonizing pain and suffering that go along with the end stages of Cancer. I can respect that.
One thing I've learned in life is that as long as you have your health, THERE IS HOPE.
