Good point Hunab, it was funny, but not as funny as Family Guy. Is it just me or does it just keep getting better and better? Will they quit at the height of hilarity? Or milk it long after they've exhausted every storyline? Will we see series 15? Or will it go down in history as even funnier than the simpsons? Will it be like Star Wars, laid to rest as a classic, only to be pulled from the grave, mutilated and regurgitated as the heinous mess that is the new movies?

Haha yeah thats pretty harsh! I don't think they've gone too far but they have definitely achieved what they set out to do, upset people.

Hey just had a quick thought about khat. It seems like the general idea is that an extraction is not possible because the actives break down too quickly, but also it is imported from other countries under the right conditions and remains strong enough to be worth importing. So i was thinking, if a bunch of fresh shoots were collected at dawn, taken inside an aircon house, curtains drawn, run through a wheatgrass juicer, then the juice de-fatted with an appropriate solvent then extracted after changing the pH or whatever, would this yield cathinone? I know it would have to be stored properly and used asap but might be a cool idea even just as a novelty. My chemistry is pretty shit so could someone give any advice? Is cathinone more stable as free base? Does acid base type procedure even work for the actives in khat? Am i missing something very obvious (i'm still semi-asleep) or am i the smartest man in the world?

Wow you'd have to work real fast. I don't know if youd even be able to make an extract in the first place?

I tell you what there's a spot in hell reserved for scalpers who buy up and then charge 5 times the price. Selfish pieces of shit

Na, they're of no use to society whatsoever. A jail term is a waste of all our tax money, a bullet in the head would be cheaper and far more beneficial.

I started an environmental science degree in wa but it wasnt really my thing so changed to chem, but anyway give enviro science a shot its pretty cool with heaps and heaps of field work and a grounding in the chemistry that occurs in the plants

Mine survived a perth winter just fine. Actually come to think of it, it's pretty much laid dormant since then.. :S but that is more likely to be a result of my gardening skills -
I had a quick utfse for this plant but couldnt find out for sure, i live just south of perth and see something that looks like this plant everywhere, is it likely its the same plant? (i know that sentence sounds a bit retarded ;))

When u break the stem of this plant does it ooze a bright white sap? kind of like thin pva glue?

That flute thing is so cool, make sure you listen to it! I'll add mine, drive in saturday - david bowie. the song that i had on ipod the first time i got stoned. remains special until this day. and black hole sun- soundgarden, which was playing when an old lady ran a red in a 4wd and totalled my first car, followed by redemption song - bob marley, sounded so spooky with my head in the airbag!

Have a look at your local nursery, mine has a fair few sage varieties last time i checked

adding shitloads of lemon juice to a tea helps alot. also, drink as much as u can in one go, as i find the bitterness only comes on when the inside of your mouth loses contact with the liquid. if that makes sense lol

In that case we will need to take a vial of your blood and deliver it to Will Smith. It is our only hope if the entire population turns into night-walking zombies that threaten the american way of life.

Ive googled many a time to try and find out what pH specific plants prefer, but for the majority of the ones that i grow its really hard to get any sort of answer, with most of the info on these plants being how to use them when they are grown. This thread would be great if everyone shares a pH + plant combination that they have had success with.

Haha hopefully! I have no idea firsthand i just seem to remember talk on this site about GP's pretty much never prescribing them anymore.
