Everafter and Forevermore, we shall inbreed...

Wow, David Coverdale is still at it. I'm impressed. The guy must be at least 70 years old (maybe 60? Oh, 60 even- thanks wikipedia), and he's still leading Whitesnake, and their new album, Forevermore is actually quite good. Touché Mr. Coverdale, touché. This is just one of those feel-good 80's bands: awesome, wholesome, classy. Love it, I really do.

I know a lot about metal, I think it's fair to say, and I've come to realize that heavy metal is a lot like the Habsburgs, i.e. super inbred. The Habsburgs were a European royal family who were distinguished by their awesome "Habsburg Chin" mutation that they all had, and by their overall good looks (the picture below is of a Habsburg ruler who was literally called Philip the Handsome).

So I'm listening to this new Whitesnake album, and running through the inbred genealogy of 80's metal:

-Whitesnake's current guitar player is Reb Beach who also played in...
-Winger (yes!), Alice Cooper band, and Dokken, whose guitar player was...
-Doug Aldrich, who also played guitar in...
-Dio!! Whose lead singer and namesake Ronnie James Dio also sang for...
-Black Sabbath, whose former singer was...
-Ozzy! Who, in his solo career, employed my favorite guitar player of all time...
-Steve Vai! Who was in David Lee Roth band, Zappa, and...
-Yep, Whitesnake.

It all comes full circle. Not convinced at the inbredness of metal? Here's another path back to Whitesnake:

-Whitenake has Reb Beach who played in...
-Dokken, whose bass player was...
-Jeff Pilson, who then started a band called War and Peace whose guitar player was...
-Satchel! who is currently in Steel Panther, which was formerly a tribute band to...
-Van Halen! Whose former lead singer was...
-David Lee Roth, who had his own band with guitar player...
-Steve Vai!! Who was in Whitesnake!

I'm tellin you man...Habsburgs. For your viewing pleasure, here is a picture of Charles II (yes, a dude) of the Habsburgs, displaying a lovely example of the mighty Habsburg Lip.

Efficient Use of Proprietary Materials

It's 1:15am. Just finished a Bio section and got a 13 = awesome balls! Awesome ones. I need to go to sleep right now, but I'm just too stoked. And you know how I make myself more stoked? With this song. This song makes me want to rock out with my cock out. Perhaps even jam out with my ham out. Rip it up with my... uh... shred out with my...head out?

Hah!

That was actually really good considering that I am wired. I'm definitely starting a sik metal band in med school...now all I have to do is keep rocking the MCAT so I can get in to med school, so I can start my band, so I can quit med school and be a rock star...

Woot to this Bio Section. Will review how I rocked it tomorrow.

Enabling, or the Axl Rose Free Prescription Plan

It has come to my attention that there might be some confusion as to the central thesis of this blog. While it is entitled "Stealing Med School", the url is simply "stealingmed", perhaps suggesting that this blog will instruct you in methods of illegally acquiring medications.

While this blog is actually supposed to be about getting in to medical school, and loving metal, I'm not one to disappoint those readers who got here through some dodgy google search. Without further ado, I present here my definitive guide to stealing medication!

1) Go to the ER and tell them you have "stomach pain". That one works 90% of the time, every time. Stomach pain is apparently impossible to diagnose, so they'll just give you an unlimited scrip for morphene...hehe, dumb doctors. None the wiser.

2) Go to a store, and discretely fill your pants with pills from the shelf. When the checkout person asks you if there is a bunch of meds in your pants, you say, "No, I just reeeally like your blouse/pant-suit/pinafore!" He/she will be so overwhelmed by your charm, they'll probably pass out and you can stroll right out the door.

3) Break in to a pill factory through the air duct (which is apparently is never secured/suspected/covered by a security camera even though that's how they get in in every movie ever). Fill your pants with pills. Head for the exit. When the night-watchman asks you if you're supposed to be down here, answer "I'm...uh...your pinafore is very fetching...?" then punch him in the face. He will pass out instantly (I can't say I've tested this myself, but every TV show ever can't be wrong). His partner will aim his gun at you and shoot 15-18 times while you run out the exit, but all the bullets will miss.

There you have it! Enjoy your Axl Rose Free Prescription Plan.






disclaimer: It has come to my attention that I could probably get the pants sued off me for soliciting theft. I like my pants: please don't steal, and have a nice day.

Epic meh...

>What, like 10 days to go? Just scored a 12 on physical section...meh.

Total amount of sleep I expect to get tongight: 5 hrs
Total amounft of sleep I expect to get in the next 10 days: 20 hrs?
Total amount of time I should be spending on blog posts right now: 0 hours, and hey, give me back the 2 minutes I just spent on this one!

Epic Win / I miss the Darkness!

This post was supposed to be about how I rocked my last MCAT practice test, and I was going to add that picture of Justin Hawkins giving the thumbs up at the end of the "I Believe in a Thing Called Love" video (which I did not find), but I got totally distracted by how much I miss this band (The Darkness). [sigh...] They were so ultra bomb(astic), and the songwriting was solid. In fact, I now realize that their departure left me Hole Hearted (cough cough Extreme reference), and this Steel Panther kick I've been on is clearly my attempt to fill that hole. To their credit, Steel Panther ARE great at filling holes. They're on Hole Patrol, 24/7 (cough cough Steel Panther album reference).

Anyways, come back Darkness. You clearly need the money - Hot Leg is just OK and Stone Gods (if they are still a band even) bore me to tears.

And yes, I got a 38 on my practice MCAT test on saturday morning, which is tit. We'll see what happens on the real thing...in <2 weeks. I should be nervous, but I see it as <2 weeks to freedome (freeeeeedome... cough cough Jimi Hendrix reference. Come back Jimi...)

Eff-Em-eL

It's 2:05am. Just finished a full length and got a 32 = monkey balls. Greasy ones. I need to go to sleep right now, but I'm just not happy. And you know how I make myself happy? With this song. This song makes me want to rock out with my cock out. Perhaps even jam out with my ham out. Rip it up with my... uh... shred out with my...head out?

Hah!

That was actually really good considering that I am asleep. I'm definitely starting a sik metal band in med school...now all I have to do is stop choking on the MCAT so I can get in to med school, so I can start my band, so I can quit med school and be a rock star...

Boo to this BS. Will review where I went wrong tomorrow.
