    If you want to tell people the truth, make them laugh, otherwise they'll kill you.

    Man is least himself when he talks in his own person. Give him a mask, and he will tell you the truth.

    Progress is not made by everyone joining some new fad,
    and reveling in it's loyalty. It's made by forming coalitions
    over specific principles, goals, and policies.

    I had a friend once he took some acid
    Now he thinks he's a fire engine
    It's okay until he pisses on your lighter
    Kinda smells kinda cool kinda funny anyway

    satan, satan, satan...

    I had a friend once he took some ecstasy
    Tried to marry me and every one in the room
    He was sort of loving kinda caring,
    kinda tried to fuck my lazy boy
    It got a bit messy all over the curtains,
    arm chair covers, throw pillows, and carpeting

    satan, satan, satan...

    I'm getting bored again...

    Good memories.

    You're probably closer to right than you know. I love the quote on the link from one of the other posts. I pasted it below. Back in the 60's the shit was organic and was a pretty pure experience in the right setting. Then, like just about everything else, it got changed into something that's almost the antithesis of the original.

    "I believe that if people would learn to use LSD's vision-inducing capability more wisely, under suitable conditions, in medical practice and in conjunction with meditation, then in the future this problem child could become a wonderchild." -- Albert Hofmann (1906-2008)

    I thank him, and wish him well on his journey.

    Hehehe, I know, all right. I used to know a real, conscientious, dedicated old-school chemist. ;)

    Thinking about that thread about what constitutes a tragedy, THIS is a real tragedy.. Even a bus tragedy, a MAGIC bus tragedy!

    My early twenties will think of you fondly, sir.

    May you rest in peace.
