Yesterday, July 9th, was my birthday. I am 49. On July 1st, in the Philosophy and Spirituality forum, I celebrated my 30th anniversary of my 1st LSD trip on windowpane. Changed my life. Not complaining about chronology - I got carded a few months ago at the Voodoo Lounge in Ft. Lauderdale. My lady gets carded for buying wine all the time and she's gonna be 46 next month. Mind Creates 'field effects'. We may be chronologically older, but we are psychologically decades younger, and our cellular ages seem to be much younger too.
Used properly, (i.e., experiencing and incorporating timelessness into one's self-concept) psychedelics can be considered the Philosophers' Stone which imparts longevity, which in turn can occasion the acquistion of Wisdom. Live long and ponder.

Don't be picking on my bud gnrm23. I smoked my first cannabis (brown hash) on New Years Eve 1969. Sandoz psilocybin in June '71.

Just turned 18 on July 4th =)
First smoked pot when I was 13, got drunk for the first time at 16, tripped off LSD for the first time at 16, ate ecstasy for the first time at 16, tripped off mushrooms for the first time like a month ago.
Just tryin' to find my way... I got a feeling my way is going to be very very different from most others. I guess that's alright though, no need to conform and be the same as everybody else. Even though that would probably make my life a lot simpler...

Don't get too excited. No one is safe from my stinging wit.
Seems like many of us geezers on this board started somewhere between 69 and 72.

Maybe they just can't believe that you and your old lady aren't Jim and Tammy Faye Bakker.

Actually, it was a very light weight, light green color that was capped up in some red gelatin. A year later, the same Sandoz psilocybin came to us through a friend who worked part time in a psych lab at Boston University, and stole the bottle. Had he looked deeper into the fridge, he would've found a larger bottle of mescaline sulfate, which he witnessed being poured down the drain during a DEA audit. I grew up within visual range of Sandoz Pharmaceuticals in E. Hanover, NJ, and in fact, I used to make deliveries there as a young long-haired truck driver.The guards always smiled and said "have a nice trip" as I drove in. Everyone knew the legacy for young freaks back then.
This was where Leary and Alpert drove to obtain the first psilocybin for their Harvard experiments, and where most rock celebrities got there first pre-Owsley acid. I seriously believe that the CIA did a wide-spread experiment on a macro level to see how acid effected the nation. It diminished conspicuous consumerism - when a VW Beetle does as well in one's mind as a fully loaded Cadillac - the walls of capitalism quake. Too, too many psychedelics left there to have been an oversite. Even a college roommate of mine once obtained 200 blue Sandoz LSD tabs. Sorry for the ramble.

Everything is better than it was the last time. I'm good.
If we could look into each others hearts, and understand the unique challenges each of us faces, I think we would treat each other much more gently, with more love, patience, tolerance, and care.
It takes a lot of courage to go out there and radiate your essence.
I know you scared, you should ask us if we scared too. If you was there, and we just knew you cared too.

...And Greetings to you gnrm23, my mid-western croney. I have to 'break on through' this go-round, I'm weary of the carosel. If Bodhisattva's delay their paranirvana til everyone else attains to it, and there are many bodhisattvas, will there be a cosmic 'Mexican' standoff between the bodhisattvas? Or, seeing that all others have attained, will they go together? In any event, don't let anyone say that 'I' am keeping those kind beings from final beatitude! Shalom. Salaam. Shanti.
