1. Had a friend call me from Japan once

he had a head full and could not remember how to speak Japanese. It was 4 am here and I was of no help but it was an interesting conversation. He came back and dosed (with permission) his Japanese roommate and all this poor kid could do was rock back and forth saying "nundiscah" over and over. I think he said it meant too strong or something like that.:crazy:

2. He was saying "What?" over and over.

If he meant strong acid he would've said "Kyosan" or something like that.

5. I've heard that Japan is not a place you'd like to be caught holding.

I still remember McCartney getting jailed and deported for bringing weed into the country.

Seems to me that the possible consequences of getting caught would harsh any buzz you'd get.

Besides, I had enough problems communicating with folks when I was in Japan, without being ripped to the tits.

3. Disco DOES suck. you know. n/t

[nolabear]

4. Had an upstairs neighbor in New Orleans who did that and went to mass.

The religious ritual, not the state. He was just the type who'd do that kind of thing on a lark. But he wasn't Catholic and didn't realize that that particular mass was conducted in Latin, so thought he'd forgotten how to understand English. The friend he went with says he stood up screaming "I can't understand what he's saying! Can you understand what he's saying?" until he was gently escorted out.

Ah, the '70s.

8. The last time I dropped was 1974, Merrell Barracks Nurnberg Germany...

(edit to give visual props to Mr. Natural)
.
.
.
.
.
... my best friend and I. Part of the experience was walking around the
outside of the square-block walled post quite a few times, needing neither
conversation nor ANYTHING else to completely occupy and fascinate us.
.
.
.
I remember taking 20-foot strides and I felt like Mr. Natural (the Keep On
Truckin' old dude with the ground-sweeping white beard for all of you
youngsters). It was a GLORIOUS day.
.
.
.
We went our separate ways for a time. He went to the snack bar and was
sitting at a table with a large glass of lemonade in front of him. He realized
that his company commander was sitting at the next table... directly at him.
.
.
.
He told me he had the longest debate imaginable about whether he should
pour that glass of lemonade over his head.
.
.
.
"If I DON'T pour it over my head, he'll KNOW that I'm tripping."
.
"Waitaminute, waitaminute. If I DO pour it over my head, he'll know that
I'm tripping."
.
"If I DON'T pour it over my head, he'll KNOW that I'm tripping."
.
"Waitaminute, waitaminute. If I DO pour it over my head, he'll know that
I'm tripping."
.
"If I DON'T pour it over my head, he'll KNOW that I'm tripping."
.
"Waitaminute, waitaminute. If I DO pour it over my head, he'll know that
I'm tripping."
.
Etc. Etc. Etc.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
Eventually and fortunately, without his having noticed it... at some point
in his "debate", his company commander had gotten up and left before my
buddy could agree with himself about the proper procedure to follow.
.
.
.
.
.
Good times.

9. OMG, isn't that feeling so universal...."They know man, they all know!"

So many drug experiences revolve around how you react when you encounter an authority figure. Will you escape, or get busted?

12. For me it was 1971 Johnson Barracks Fuerth Germany

Right outside Nuermburg. Did visit the "wall" a time or two.

[MiddleFingerMom]

13. Wasn't the U.S. hospital in Fuerth? Went there many times (as a medic)...

.
.
.
.
.
... dropping off lab samples and picking up results.
.
.
.
Tried my best to time my visits for lunchtime as the cooks at
military hospitals were usually the cream of the crop.
.
.
.
When I got married, my ex and I lived about two blocks away
from that hospital -- so maybe that was more the outskirts of
Nurnberg than Fuerth.

6. Do not drop acid ...

and then go watch The Exorcist.

Just saying...

[snooper2]

15. We watched that on shrooms...

You know how many times we re-wound that VHS and watched her head spinning around? :rofl:

[pokerfan]

16. We didn't have the missing scene

7. Or drop acid and go looking for firewood at night.

Very interesting experience.

[Throd]

10. Do not drop acid and mistake an old piece of rolled up carpet for a crouching bear.

[CBGLuthier]

11. Do not drop five hits of acid, drink half a bottle of whiskey, smoke a lot of pot

watch Hanger 18 with the colors fucked up while listening to Dark Side of the Moon.

And then drive home, sleep on a couch infested with fleas and wake up with bites every place but the worst place possible.

Bad idea. Every time.

[XemaSab]

14. Do not drop acid and then try to find your way across the state of California

via public transportation. :P
