Aye, but don't go pronouncing it as such at health food outlets, they'll look at you like you got Asperger's syndrome. Most people pronounce it ass-see-eee or ahhh-kai

METALLICA frontman James Hetfield spoke frankly in a new interview with Classic Rock magazine about the band's so-called "wilderness" years, in the mid-to-latter 90s, during which drug use and disagreements over the group's image and sound nearly drove them apart. Hetfield said he was particularly uncomfortable with the change in the group's image around the release of its 1996 album "Load". Hetfield explained, "The whole 'We need to reinvent ourselves' topic was up. Image isn't an evil thing to me, but if the image isn't you, it doesn't make much sense."
Hetfield said that he thought drummer Lars Ulrich and guitarist Kirk Hammett were "after a U2 kind of vibe, Bono doing his alter-ego. I couldn't get into it. I would say at least half the pictures that were to be in the booklet, I yanked out. The cover went against what I was feeling. Lars and Kirk were very into abstract art, pretending they were gay. I think they knew it bugged me. I think the cover of 'Load' was just a piss-take around all that. I just went along with all this crazy stupid shit."
Hetfield claimed that Ulrich and Hammett bonded over their drug use during that time and that the band's music suffered too, saying, "A lot of fans got turned off quite a bit by the music — but mostly, I think, by the image."

so for some odd reason at work they were talking about "hackey sack" and I had forgotten about how much fun it was in my earlier years. I busted out the old dirtbag (8-panel, sand-filled) and began to footbag all over again. i forgot how competitive and difficult it was, as well as remembering how skilled i am. hipp(y)ie stereotype aside, its so much fun and a great workout. i've decided to get back into it and practice daily. i have no goddamn idea why

I bet Drug Emporium has hackey sacks. I dream about going back there. Derick was admiring those pig lighters on the intarweb. Yeah we must go back.

It's ah-sigh-ee...don't buy into its hype either. It's good for antioxidants, but not much else.
And if I have to listen to one more fat black woman come into my store and ask if we have "ah-kai berry stuff" I'm going to rage quit life.

Today I went jogging, and when I was crossing the street, I stepped in a hole, rolled my ankle, and fell on my face. I hit the ground pretty hard and my mp3 player went flying on the road. It was in front a few cars, and I'm sure they laughed. Luckily my ear is still intact.
So far, I've sprained my ankle by walking on a sidewalk, jogging, opening and going through a door, and ridding a bike. I fucking rule.
