 Gourdolito Revisited - old title was "Cornucopia"

Disclaimer: I remember vividly what happened the last time I posted a rainbow photo, so be forewarned. You MUST be over 18 to view this post.
I was tripping on a pyschedelic gourd last weekend and saw the spirit of "Gourdolito" dancing on the clouds and wishing a Fruitful Harvest to all!

Dude! That gourd looks hella potent. Where can I get me some? What's the dosage? Do you barf your guts out? What's the best way to dry it? What life lessons did Gourdalito impart to you? Did he teach you a song?

The pyschedelic component is in the rind, not the edible center. It is quite bitter (though not in the same league as peyote), but was amazingly gentle on the stomach. I scooped out the guts, sliced up the rind and put in a blender with some OJ. One baseball-sized gourd is enough for a level III trip. I will post a full report of the "lessons" of Gourdolito later.

They contain a chemical 51 times more potent than LSD, Cocaine, Heroin, and THC combined!

That is an exaggeration of their potency. The gnarly decorative gourds work the best.

Can you really trip on a gourd? Oh no!!!..... Am I just another gullable S.O.B. who fell victim to Swami's Trickery? Seriously though, I'd like to know!!

man, i thought i was just having a flashback at thatksgiving when my girlfriend made baked squash on the shell. i ate mine on the rhind and later on in the day while watching a movie, i became the movie and was one with the couch. then i just faded out and woke up hours later after a dream which i found out bit by bit was totally true.
by the way, use a sitter with this stuff, because it REALLY makes you trip
thats the exact type of squash too!!

THIS THREAD SHOULD BE DELETED!!!
Swami! You're gonna screw it up for us all if you tell people about "Gourding Out". Watch, it'll be the new party drug... and then the DEA will fight to schedule it and I won't be able to gourd out on turkey day.
(now that the cat is out of the bag)
Warning: If anyone DOES decide to gourd out, please DO NOT try to snort the powder. Last year a fellow shroomerite died pulling such a stupid stunt (R.I.P. "joneser7"). And remember to have a sitter.

What is honestly the point of this post?
Gratitude for abundance (Thanksgiving) is a humble spiritual attitude, is it not? Appreciation for the artistic beauty that God created in both the sky and in a lowly vegetable is not significant enough for you? Can a thread not be spiritual without a reptilian/mantid in it?
Gourdolito teaches deep lessons about the interconnectivity of all creation.

To call humans 'rational beings' does injustice to the term, 'rational.' Humans are capable of rational thought, but it is not their essence. Humans are animals, beasts with complex brains. Humans, more often than not, utilize their cerebrum to rationalize what their primal instincts, their preconceived notions, and their emotional desires have presented as goals - humans are rationalizing beings.

There are many verses in the Bible that although they do not directly relate to this issue can be, in some sense, applicable. The Truth is that while the gourd can give someone the feeling that they are the recipient of esoteric truths but quantum mechanics shows that the little bitty parts are the only thing that is real.
Take two Guinea pigs and call me in the morning.

Wow! I have been getting requests to start a new website. Does "The Gourdery" sound too imitative? Someone suggested "The Lost Gourd". Ideas?
Anyone interested in etymology might be interested in knowing that the term "out of your gourd" comes from being spaced out on psychedelic gourds.

Isn't quite as it seems?
What if all the world you think you know,
Is an elaborate dream?
And if you look at your reflection,
Is it all you want it to be?

WHOA WHOA WHOA grind???
No sir, you NEVER grind up gourds - that oxidizes all the psychedelic chemicals contained in the rind. You're supposed to chew and swallow small pieces (1/2 inch cubes)- about 5 ounces worth.
OR you can do a simple acid/base extraction by boiling the (dried or undried, but undried works better) gourd in a mixture of lemon juice and water (4:1 ratio water/LJ). After about 20 minutes, take out the gourd and add a tablespoon of baking soda. Then reduce the water until all you have left is a gooey golden to brown residue. Scrape up the residue, spread it thinly on a sheet of wax paper, then dry it like you would mushrooms (a fan or whatever you normally use). I haven't used calcium chloride to dry gourdalito, so I wouldn't recommend using it.
