brian is pronounceable.
since being diagnosed in 1997 as paranoid-scizhophrenic,
i have been on various different meds, but for the
last few years i have a cocktail that has been
working very well.
i always take my meds, and cannot imagine folks that are
supposed to take them and don't.
now on to the other drugs.
weed - will and always shall. that's when i can find it.
(being a shut-in doesn't gather many contacts).
alcohol - used to down stout after stout, but since i
was diagnosed, i rarely touch it.
(may sound funny and contrary to the pot, but
as you know there is a big difference and not
just health wise.)
LSD - it is funny. i was just thinking about how most
folks tend to lump LSD into a youthful folly
drug. my opinion is contrary, as LSD isn't
just a cool high. it needs to be tended to with
clarity and respect, something that most people
seem to lack when it comes to hallucinogens.
you/i can keep with it, as it has always opened
my senses and mind to a different view and
appreciaton of life in all it's vagaries.
synthetic yes, but it still can be treated with the
power it delivers.
mushrooms - a different trip than LSD. naturally, more
organic, and i have tended to have better
times in nature than inside with a shroom
trip.
cocaine - tried it once. see no point in it. seems though
that most people in El Paso prefer cocaine to any
other drug. trying to keep up with the big city .
speed - coffee is as fast as i want to go, and i even
drink it with what the fuck am i doing? stance.
have tried meth, and well, i don't feel like
staying up for three days and feeling like a fucking
dirt bag.
robitussin and ephedrine - yes, yuck, but it was a phase,
and i wouldn't do it again. though,
while high on robitussin, i did
gather one of my favorite ideas/?.
what would Jesus look like if he was a
Peanut character? i keep this
with me on the bad days.
heroin/opium and others - the best of them all. if i ever again
find a way to get some dope, i would use
it responsibly by not shooting it, but by
lacing some natural smoke, or some good
weed. keep the high manageable, and coast
through my work and projects.
hash - the reason i want to live in Amsterdam or in a small Belgium
village.
as you, Allan, i am an active supporter of the legalization and
eductaion on the drug platform. it's something this conutry
serious lacks and wastes billions of dollars on the problem .
it's only a problem if you make it one. the qualities associated
with some of the above drugs are greatly skewed.
yes. my body. my choice.
thank you for actually answering this question in particular, and
some of the others.
i appreciate this group to no end, as you all are my main form of
communication and socialization. i was brought up solo, and spent
my formative years hooked to a C-64 and QuantumLink, not being
readily accepted at the time due to my computer usage.
being an only child has tremendous advantages that help you
deal with later life with a bit more self-reliance than
you freaks with siblings. :)
where was i...oh. sometimes it seems that the Alice in
Wonderland grip on FluxList makes nonsense the norm
and seriousness the black sheep. it is annoying at
times, but i understand that Fluxus never takes/took
itself (or its non-self) very seriously.
all this said, i will get back to work and continue to enjoy
and support what i can of FluxList and the super kids
that inhabit it.
love, hugs, kisses and spit.
