Hands you want to shake/hugs you want to give.
    #12393963 - 04/14/10 06:35 PM (13 years, 10 months ago)

I was thinking about this as I responded to another post. I once met Alexander Shulgin and shook his hand and that meant a lot to me - those hands of his have been so instrumental in forging alchemical wonders, to touch them was truly an honor. The same goes for shaking Trent Reznor's hand - that electrified me! The same hands that played so much of the beautiful music that has impacted my life. In that vein, same for Jason Pierce, the lead singer of Spiritualized and Patti Smith. Patti Smith!!

It got me thinking about other hands I would really like to shake...and people to whom I would like to give really big hugs.

Bjork (hug)
Thom Yorke (shake)
Ythan (shake)
chinacat72 (hug)
Rick Doblin (shake)
Ethan Nadelmann (shake)
Haruki Murakami (shake)
Paul Auster (shake)
Darren Aronofsky (hug)

I'm sure there's more.

Acid doesn't give you truths; it builds machines that push the envelope of perception. Whatever revelations came to me then have dissolved like skywriting. All I really know is that those few years saddled me with a faith in the redemptive potential of the imagination which, however flat, stale and unprofitable the world seems to me now, I cannot for the life of me shake.

I agree with most of that list.  I don't know who three of those people are, but i think i probably should.  I've shaked maynards (from tool) hand a few times.  I'd like to give him a hug and 5 grams of mushrooms too.  Shulgin is def. on my list, both him and ann.  Hopefully, that will happen in the next few days.  Stanislov Grof is another one i'd like to hug.  I am also a big fan of Dr. Nadelman.  I love listening him speak about the drug war.  He's very articulate, on point and persuasive.  I'm curious why you have Darren Aronofsky on there.  I really liked the movie Requiem for a dream, and pi too, but is he notable for something else?  I will also add Alan Rockefeller and Dwipineal to the list plus some growery folk and a few more shroomerites too.  I'd like to give earth and fire erowid a hug too.  I guess i was just mainly thinking about people in the psychedelic areas.  Too many people to name overall.  I wish T. mckenna was still around.  or at least if someone would take his place.  Such a poetic tongue.

A generic answer would be 'mostly musicians, some dead and some living'
Just because they have made my life so much richer and added so much color.

I was just thinking about chinacat72 the other day.  The Thumbprint thread was epic.

I'd like to slap Shulgin five.

Shake hands with Albert Hoffman and McKenna.

Give Leary a pat on the back (nice try).

Hug those I love, and shake hands with those I hate.

I would like to hug several Victoria's Secret models.  Most specifically Adriana Lima.  Pretty much anyone else is going to get a handshake.
