As a teenager in the late 1970s the world's pharmacopia was at my feet and I tried nearly everything but straight heroin. LOVED the psychoactives and marijuana, other stuff was too dangerous or had bad side effects. Ever chew a peyote button? There is no bitterness after that bitter, but if your mindset is positive doing that one time with a trusted person on watch will make you see yourself and the world beneficially. But I'm not advocating.

A friend found Jimson Weed growing wild outside our school and harvested the seeds. Knew that much but not the dosage. Visited him in jail (after he ran across campus naked), and he insisted I watch the tiny motorcycles racing up the wall and across the ceiling. That one keeps you out for a whole day and then your artificially near-sighted for a few after that. Most amusing to see which students were on it as they had to get up on the chalkboard to read it.

Biggest mystery is how I did all that crap while smoking pot like cigarettes yet still became Valedictorian. The downfall was taking up the legal poison alcohol to which I attribute every mistake since - but I own that.

CB, you deserved some history there.

If liked hooch I’d have been no different

My best pal Edwin and an immediate family member whom you know well both fell under its spell

It’s an accepted facet of the human experience in every civilization I know of

Women were ALWAYS my addiction

Both a boon and a curse
