"Even at the 14-month follow-up, 58 percent of 36 volunteers rated the experience on the psilocybin session as among the five most personally meaningful experiences of their lives and 67 percent rated it among the five most spiritually significant experiences of their lives," the researchers said.  
 
 "Surrender is intensely powerful. To 'let go' and become enveloped in the beauty of -- in this case music -- was enormously spiritual," one volunteer said.
i haven't touched any in years, last time was when they could still be bought in amsterdam's smart shops (so it was legal then & there, m'kay?).  back in the day they were part of many a fun summertime outdoor activity.  between the recent rains and stumbling across this article, made me a tad nostalgic.  that, and this cartoon made me giggle:

They certainly had me wondering that I should have taken some at that Harry and the Potters show with the Ultimate Enthusiasm Expo Tour and Uncle Monster with their wizards and monster head.  It was like a crazy acid/shroom trip!

It all makes sense now!
 
 We could save so much money in this country on drug enforcement and rehab centers by just sending Walkonby into crack houses and meth labs. I figure about 10 minutes of his random gobbledygook would have all those lifelong baseheads saying "man, drugs really do make you stupid."

except that i've never done crack nor meth in my life, and his gobbledygook makes me feel stupid.  great idea, tho.  worth a shot, hopefully the junkies won't see through the ruse.

when a human being takes magic mushrooms, they are transported to venus, where they are told about the lies of earth and then reprogrammed to be sent back.  once returned, the taker of said drug settles into a belief that all is nice and fluffy with the world, but really a hidden animal has been placed in their brain to make them enjoy things like the food network and warm smiles.
