Thanks Darklight, I left the scene after losing interest in it. It was funny to read the Chemical Shaman's new posts (and watch his movies), but I don't think I'll be around as much as I used to.

I thought you guys might like to see my little brother and his mate setting fire to stuff in my Ballarat house's backyard, they're playing with fire so I guess I haven't deviated too far from the topic.

Pezzhuascan - Dr. Gonzo was the name of the person who should have checked into the first hotel, but Hunter and his mate stole his room. Hence the total freakout with the receptionist, Hunter thinking he's busted for scamming her, she turns into a giant eel etc. Hard to tell this happened unless you've read the book.

A good friend of mine and the forums has been arrested by the police. The police raided his house and took his computer and most of his personal possessions. He asks that nobody from this forum send ANY EMAILS to any of his email addresses. He doesn't have access to the internet or his computer and will not be getting his computer back. He will post an email address in a week or two that is safe to send emails to until then IT IS NOT SAFE TO SEND ANY EMAILS TO ANY OF HIS EMAIL ADDRESSES. This is a very serious matter and he asks that no discussions concerning this matter be held on the forums or in any public place on the internet. Please do not reply to this thread at all. His main concern is that nobody who he is associated with becomes incriminated in any way due to his fuck up. He asks that you please take this seriously and PLEASE do not discuss this on the forums. Also do not call ANY of his phone numbers, the police have his mobile and there is a fair chance that they have tapped his home phone.

Alright, hope everyone who is worrying is reading this. Stinky Whizzlecheeks probably will hate me for copying his email into here but this is most of the info I got from CS. no man dont sweat it. Everything is pretty chill now. This has nothing to do with drugs whatsoever, nobody has been compromised. Anyone that has had any dealings with me at all is 100% safe I can promise you that. I got hardcore busted and fucked up, they didnt take my 14B and a few other drugs coz they didn't recognise it. These weren't drug cops. This isnt about drugs. they took my fucking weed and shit though Nobody is in any shit, i just dont want anyone emailing me asking about drugs because the police have my computer right now and while it is not about drugs at the moment it could easily become about drugs if they start getting emails from associates wanting to be hooked up with this that and the other. Anyways if anyone asks you, things are pretty cool with me at the moment, I made bail and I have a court date in about a month. Also, he wants Tom (is cat), Veronica (I'm wondering why ) and Freebase Ranger (?) to email him at [email protected] . So if you're one of them three people, email him, and if you see any of them three people in Chilli Sauce, remind them of this message. Ciao bro's.

[email protected] is The God Of Fuck's new email address. He can't check it that often tho he says, so it may take longer to bake cakes than it usually would.

An interesting tidbit from the 'making of' show of the first Big Brother series - Todd, the dreads dude, ate a poppy seed bagel on his way to a final interview, took a drug test, and came up positive ! Wow. As bluemeanie said, wank wank.

RubyTuesday, I chucked it on Webmaster because I knew they had a Java thing that supported IRC channels. It's the same client the Big Brother site used for the first series (I don't think they kept the chat room for the second series), and I just followed the links from the BB site. The Java client is so freaking easy to setup as well, you pretty much just key in your details, and it gives you the source code - pretty handy. I see no problem with Webmaster, don't think anyone else apart from Psylence has complained aboot it. Dunno if CS will ever be as frequent in there as he used to, but he has chucked a few posts up recently. I hate talking aboot CS - it makes it seem like he's some kind of celebrity. I'm trying to think of another reason why I hate talking aboot CS, but it's all too complicated to figure out.

Gomoass, you did some pretty good posts there, it's pretty easy to see now where your stance on alcohol lies. Me, I'm not so anti-alcoholic as you. I didn't think much about alcohol use when using it - just drink a six pack, wow, have fun, dooo. But once I started trying other stuff, I ended up on BZP at a pretty hallmark backyard pissup for Year 11s, taking my memories back to the same situations I experienced a few years back. I disagree with what I thought on that night - BZP cleared out the cobwebs so to speak, I saw all the cool-kids™ from a distance. That's what drugs do - give you perspective. I wasn't functioning on society's plane - I was on my own plane, looking up/down (I don't believe I'm higher than society, just detached from it). I saw the fat guy in the corner, in the bushes, huddled against the garage, blind drunk on spirits. I won't be too dark, there were also a few guys loving it, running round, enjoying it all. There was also a slightly retarded dude who'd done 10 straight vodka shots, and was now barfing all over his front over by the fire. I can sorta see how the BZP made me think that alcohol was bad then. I saw alcohol as having been the one BAD drug - that it was somewhat wrong !?! Also ciggarettes. After using BDO - still thinking that there was something wrong with alcohol, I had to give it up at a point, and that gave me even more perspective. I imagine giving the drugs up for a period let me recover what I had gained from those experiences. It was more like I was using just because I thought I should, because I thought I wanted to, so I should do it - not for the real reason, that I want to GAIN something from them. I don't know when it was, but I saw that there was no right or wrong - no dividing line, nothing saying you can't run over some guys leg, but you don't run his leg over because it'll hurt him. Nothing's black or white, it's all grey, and it's yours for the taking. And I saw that there was nothing wrong with alcohol - it's impossible to express this sentiment, using society's language to say it means I have to distinguish it from nothing, further enhancing the black and white. Hell, these letters aren't grey on a grey background, it's all black on white. I don't even know if I'm saying anything here that makes sense, but hopefully something entertains you Gomoass or spiraleyes. Maybe what I'm trying to say is as much as alcohol can seem a bitch, it's nothing more than CH3OH to me. Those elements don't hate you - that molecule doesn't want to beat you up, or drown you in a pool. I just remembered I wanted to mention that I do like the link between 1984 and alcohol, really I like to see it compared to life in general. Maybe Brave New World says it better with the whole "soma" thing, but I haven't read it yet. Just how the proles live a "bad" existence, yet they're still the ones having the most fun ! I've taken the idea onboard that I just want to live life for fun, not for the rat race, not for the Celica down the road, not the office in the corner overlooking the highway into the city, just the serotonin of it all. And as much as the Party thinks that the proles have it bad, that they live in squalor, that some dude had his hand blown off by a bomb and it had to be kicked away, they're still having fun. We've read they all gathered in the bar, discussed the lotto results (alright, I'm totally screwing the books message over. Maybe) but those using alcohol may seem unhappy from OUR perspective, they're having fun ! Think of how fun it is to escape the hangovers, the cravings, and just drink it all off ! That's what I want to live for ! Maybe not along those lines, but the escapism of it all can't be bad™ if you're having fun while doing it. Obese people look fat from the outside. They look unhappy not being able to press telephone buttons and having to prevent nuclear meltdowns (how funny was the Simpsons !?!) anyways they're not thinking like that when they're down at the Cheesecake Shop, they love eating food ! It tastes great. I reckon food freaking rules. Sugar is the chonkiest thing ever. And that's enjoyment ! So to sum it up, maybe I'm saying it's all a matter of PERSPECTIVE. And if you don't live your life to have fun, you've denied yourself the one thing that can make you feel special. Hell, the dude trapped in the dead end job at a mechanics factory, or even the guy who drives the Merc who runs in the rat race, they don't look like they're having fun from our perspective. But here's another perspective - the Merc dude loves to buy Merc's ! He loves to get the latest Armani suit ! Like the dude in Fight Club, he lives for the next Ikea catalogue. There's always another corner to look around, and you'll never be able to know what the dudes around it are talking about until you go up and talk with them. Peace out bruvvoi's.

Gotta agree with you there big T, but maybe not to that extent. Dream Herb is pretty bitter. Two times I've tasted this stuff - the first time I had a pointless binge on every entheogen I had, and I ate about a gram of that stuff, floating in cold water !?! It wasn't exactly pallatable. Sorta imagine it woulda tasted even worse infused as a tea, but then again I was pretty blind at that point. About half a week back I packed a pretty light cone of the stuff, the leaf being alot more dryish than pot, sorta a bit like dried eucalptus in its feel. The first toke wasn't all too bad, sorta tasted like pot I thought. Second toke wasn't the greatest, it is actually pretty hard to believe that just smoke can be bitter. Even with a bit of mint chewy the third toke was pretty unbearable. Overall pretty bad. In case anyone is wondering, I went to sleep about 15 minutes later, and the cone was aboot 2/3 done, and my dreams were sorta a bit more weird. I usually dream alot, and have weird as ones, so the Calea didn't do ALL too much, definitely an effect tho. Maybe I'll do an extraction one day and test drive it.

Gomoass, have you tried using any Dream Herb yet ? Wanted your take on it, thinking of trying some when I can be bothered.

Tripitaka, you should leave sugar out of this - it so isn't a drug. Just because it gives you energy, doesn't mean it's psychoactive - man, water to a dehydrated dude is gonna make them feel more alive, doesn't mean we should be inhaling steam on the weekends.

It's not as if you needed that winking smilie to express your covert sense of subtlety. In the nicest possible way.

Anyone know any good shroom picking spots ?

MX, Tuesday June 4 2002, page 8, NORTHERN TERRITORY (1) : Police have seized 125kg of illicit kava on the Gove Peninsula despite the NT allowing its first legal shipments of the restricted herb. Nhulunbuy police seized 65kg from the boot of a car and another 60kg was in unclaimed luggage at Gove Airport. The soporific Pacific herb was introduced to the Top End as an alternative to alcohol in the 1980s, but was banned in 1997 after concerns about its abuse.

http://www.erowid.org/experiences/exp.php3?ID=10049 - might have some information relevant to this topic, reville.

http://www.whitedragon.org.uk/articles/apple.htm is pretty much what I'm going by. The mention in MX also makes think it could be true. I imagine you probably think it's all bullshit (got sidetracked by ½ hour here, couldn't be fucked finishing this post)

I'ts aboot 6 pm, and I sit down at the computer, and check the http://www.erowid.org/experiences/exp.cgi?NewErowid Experience Vaults. Alot of Ecstasy, Mushrooms and Morning Glory vaults - but one of them, the most exotic chemical of the day seems to be http://www.erowid.org/experiences/exp.php3?ID=15087MBDB. Interesting vault, but I'm more interested in the phenethylamine side of things. See, I've been reading/studying PIHKAL for the past half week now, just sorta trying to absorb a bit of information. So I'm at http://www.erowid.org/library/books_online...pihkal128.shtmlMETHYL-J (the PIHKAL name for MBDB), getting pretty bored. Now I dunno what happened, but I ended up at the http://www.alchemind.org/shulgin/index.htmAlchemind's Society's Ask Dr. Shulgin page, hearing some tosser ask some tosser question which he could have got from some tosser board, asking it to the fucking godfather of psychedelic phenethylamines. I remember reading Satori Blue's question here http://www.alchemind.org/shulgin/adsarchiv...rchiveindex.htmin the archives, but the only decent one I want to look at is http://www.alchemind.org/shulgin/adsarchive/tma.htmthe really complicated one, the one aboot trimethoxylated amphetamine derivatives. So I'm thinking, this TMA-6 stuff sounds kinda cool. http://www.erowid.org/library/books_online...pihkal162.shtmlback into PIHKAL I delve, and am fairly borderline when I read the pretty empty report on it. I read about how Book II was supposed to be aboot easy to get chemicals, how aldehyde may one day be 1000$/g on the black market. And that it will be impossible to remove phloroglucinol from availability. So now it's 3 am, and I'm trying to think of something to do. I remember reading in an http://www.mxnet.com.auMX that apples are more effective upon waking up than coffee. Baloney, I say, the "it's true" ain't always true - there isn't a Superman in every Seinfeld episode, http://www.eeggs.com/items/1139.htmlthere's 124 in 180 episodes. But I may as well http://google.yahoo.com/bin/query?p=apple+...rties&hc=0&hs=0take a look anyway. Turns out information is hard to find, but I end up finding something - "The bark of the Apple tree is a tonic and a stimulant, bringing down the temperature in a fever, tightening the tissues and constricting distended blood vessels. The bark contains phlorizin" - Eh ? What's this we say ? So http://www.genome.ad.jp/dbget-bin/www_bget...compound+C01604this site is telling me phlori(d?)zin looks like this. But how close am I to finding out any solid information on dosages, or synthesis ? I go back to do http://google.yahoo.com/bin/query?p=phlori...ulant&hc=0&hs=0another search, but this time, I find something. Something interesting. VERY interesting. The http://srd.yahoo.com/goo/phloridzin+stimul...ve/pihkal_part68th and last link, with a title http://www.flashback.se/archive/pihkal_part6%5b/URL[/url] . Now I'm thinking WHAT THE FUCK ? How did that get there ? Turns out it was under my nose all along, since 6 pm - just 1 paragraph away. Here we go, to quote it all for ye of those who are too lazy to follow my links… "But, it will be impossible to remove phloroglucinol from availability. It is available as a natural component in the free form, in sources as diverse as the cones of the Sequoia sempervirens (the coast redwood tree) and species of Camillia (that provides the leaves of our morning tea). And combined with a molecule of glucose in the form of its glucoside, it is called phlorin, and it is present in the discarded rinds of almost all citrus fruits as well as the resins from many of the Eucalyptus species. And one step yet further back into nature, there is a dihydrochalcone glucoside called phloridzin which practically drips out of all parts of the apple and pear trees except for the apple or pear itself. It, on base hydrolysis, gives phlorin, which on acid hydrolysis gives phloroglucinol, which when dissolved in methanol and sulfuric acid gives Q. Nature is indeed most bountiful." I found that to be one of the craziest things I've seen this weekend. Either I need to get out more, or that's some pretty fluky stuff right there. Here's some preparation information that I found… "Phloridzin, phlorizin, or phloridzite (C21H24O10.2H2O), was discovered, in 1835, by De Koninck and Stas. It is a bitter glucosid which exists in the bark of the trunk and roots of the apple, pear, cherry, and plum trees. The fresh root-bark of the apple tree contains about 3 to 5 per cent, the leaves about 0.8 per cent of this principle, while the dry root-bark does not contain it. To prepare it, the fresh bark of the root of the apple tree is boiled for 2 hours in a quantity of water sufficient to cover it. This water is decanted off, and the boiling repeated with a second portion. This last decoction must be kept separate from the first. It commonly deposits in 24 hours a considerable quantity of granular crystals of phloridzin, which, when dissolved in distilled water and treated with animal charcoal, are rendered quite pure. Another process is to digest the fresh bark of the root in weak alcohol at about the temperature of 50° C. (122° F.), continuing the digestion for 8 or 10 hours. The greater part of the alcohol is then distilled off, and the residue set aside to crystallize. Purify as in the other process." "---Dosages---Of infusion of the bark, 1 to 4 fluid ounces. Of phloridzin, 5 to 20 grains." So if anyone is still reading this, has anyone tried to make a batch, or would be willing to ? I reckon the making of a batch would complete this whole freaky cyclic research thing that's going on. That's my tale for the night. As if I was going to get the HTML first go… [This message has been edited by DaNozz Direct (edited 03 June 2002).]

… or maybe it doesn't. Salvornin ACholesterol But Cholesterol and that Salvia molecule that they found look similar - damn similar, just a hydroxy, a double bonded oxygen and an ethyl group. I passed some time making some pictures for ye all. Black is Cholesterol, Red is that Salvia molecule that I couldn't be bothered finding the name for. I overlayed the Salvia molecule over the Cholesterol molecule in the 2nd picture (or the 1st picture in the middle row), and put them side by side in the 3rd picture (or the 2nd picture in the middle row). Yay. 10 dollars says the HTML stuffs. Oh, what a guess ! [This message has been edited by DaNozz Direct (edited 04 June 2002).]

Now I'm going all red he he Anyways, I'm not really after phloroglucinol at the moment, but who knows, maybe one day I'll revisit it if I wanna makes some TMA-6. I'm really just after some phloro(d?)zin, I'm thinking the stuff sounds pretty cool. Waterdragon, do you reckon you could try to get some phlorozin (fuck that d? thing off) ? It's a supposed stimulant, just seems somewhat interesting. I've chucked the extraction method thing in again down noi… [*]To prepare it, the fresh bark of the root of the apple tree is boiled for 2 hours in a quantity of water sufficient to cover it.

Spanks heaps WD and DL, but I'm a HTML whore, I just reckon it's cool to be able to have pure code make something that looks heaps arranged. Torsten, I'm doing Applied Chem at RMIT.

It used to be 8mg max near the end of last year, suppose it's been boosted to 12mg max now. That's just over the counter. Prescription shit used to be 30mg max when 8mg was the OTC max, it might be a bit higher now. I dunno what the max is on a triplicate prescription though. Codeine is sweeet.

Hoy gomoass, you ever had any major coughs that required the ingestion of large amounts of DXM to remedy ?

Goodbye legal salvia use - may I live long enough to see you live again.

Yo mama's got funky spunk.
