Say what?
That whole movie is just one big mushroom induced dream. Who's to say it has nothing to do with drugs? Its like the ultimate trip.
I want a link.

It's based on an old German fairy-tale...well before the concept of wormholes was introduced
--------------------
Once, men turned their thinking over to machines in the hope that this would set them free. But that only permitted other men with machines to enslave them.

Very interesting... Good to know that the U.S. school system is teaching the kids of today incorrectly. Thanks for the info.

I don't think he was on drugs, he did have a great imagination and a "thing" for little girls

I recently bought a copy of Alice in Wonderland with illustrations by Ralph Steadman, the guy who did alot of stuff for HST, and did the stuff in Fear and Loathing.
Very trippy stuff. If I'm bothered too, someday I'll scan and post a bunch of the illustrations for ya'll....

Wandering around Central Park on a mixture of acid and MDMA I stumbled on to a humongous bronze statue I'd never seen beforfe - Alice in Wonderland, Alice next to the Mad Hatter amongst two or three huge mushrooms with all sorts of creatures around them, and Alice and Wonderland quotes carved into bronze plates surrounding the sculpture. It was fucking awesome.

Definitely...my friend Eileen had a humongous pill that was supposed to be real good...we chopped it up three ways, between me my girlfriend (Lucy) and her roommate Eileen...then me and Eileen each ate a tab and the mix was perfect. We just sat around the park all day watching kids tackle each other and just enjoying the view...then went to this trippy restaurant near me and had two bottles of wine, then went home baked chocolate chip cookies and smoked a hell of a lot...
