Yea!
-------------------- 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. -Erik Davis

Reading 'Growing a Farmer' by Timmermeister. Interesting outlook on starting one's own farm and the process/hardships that occur.

Just finished PHI which was an excellent read on human consciousness and the like.
Started 'Understanding Human Nature" by Alfred Adler yesterday. I have read a different psychology book by him before so it is a but repetitive, but highly intuitive so far.

Just finished a very strange one.... " Satan: His Psychotherapy And Cure By The Unfortunate Dr. Kassler, J.S.P.S. "
By Jeremy Leven
-------------------- On storing pedro tea... Brewmaster: Well, the mescaline will still be in there, but I'd be afraid of it conjealing and trying to escape after it grew in size from eating all the other shit in my fridge, and possibly my dogs if it got out. Pithlit: sentient drugs, now that is an idea ... OneMoreRobot: Idea? It's a fuckin' reality. You know Salvia? Nigga stole my TV.

My Education: Book of Dreams Burroughs.
Decent. Had a few laugh-out-loyd moments. In general, I find him to be kinda one dimensionsonal and utterly lacking in human emotion or humility, humor, relevance, etc.
Still, a quick and easy read.

It's pretty interesting to me but I will take my time with it and knock out maybe 2 chapters at a time
