Only 'bad' jokes to those who can't grasp them. . . A good pun is its own reword! > ... Acid absorbs 10 times its weight in excess reality. Never got to try the real thing. . . I was born just as the culture was phasing out(latter '60s; I don't recall the '60s literally because I wasn't there for most of them, but I wish I had been!); missed the free love of the '70s, too, for beiung too young to participate (spent most of the '70s in one elementary school) I enjoyed the hell out of the '80s, though, & then good music took a dive, & it wasn't so great after. . . *sigh* I've spent years collecting vinyl LPs of the good music (pretty much 1967-1986); I've got over 2,000 LPs in a wallful of IKEA record shelves. . . I don't play them, of course, even though I have a nice end table turntable, because I'd like to keep them in decent condition as long as possible. . . I am always so happy to find a good YouTube copy of a full album. Got Accuradio playing Clasic Rock album cuts (not just the hits, but deeper into the albums, too) as I'm replying here. . . nice flashbacks to when music was actually "a harmonious interplay of notes" Some Ritchie Blackmore(as Rainbow) just finishing as I'm drinking my first super coffee of the morning, before going out on errands. . . I tried to catch up in the '80s to the bygone era time & place, but it likely was nowhere near the same. Availability was not an issue, as my home town was the hub for all drug movement for the west half of Canada. Always good music in the background, though, as it was for those in '67 in Frisco & Woodstock. . . Avoid the brown acid, of course. . .we were warned.. .. Q: Why did the safety manager insist that a big pile of LSD be removed immediately from the factory floor? A: He felt it was a real tripping hazard. If you take LSD by accident listen to some dubstep, bass will neutralize the acid Q: What do you get if you combine LSD with the BCP? A: A trip without the kids. Dang, wish I could post this pic I just got: An arnm tattoo of Nelson Muntz from The Simpsons, in multiple, surrounding a mosaic-type colorful fractal: A Nelson mandala. . .
