The LSD Hall of Fame my foundation has been trying to build for the past 30 years keeps falling down, so until then, can we get Dock into the Baseball Hall of Fame pronto? #drugs
"Because the no-hitter was the first game of a double header, Ellis was forced to keep track of the pitch count for the night game." [[en.wikipedia.org]]
There were famous photos of spiders on various drugs---normal web, the pot web---VERY messy and barely a quarter done--and the acid web, which was perfect and incredibly complex, like triple the strands the web would normally have. A web's web.
Yeah, if you want to pitch a no hitter, try acid. Nothing like it for shake-free, complete concentration. #drugs
Barbara Manning/The SF Seals have a song about the game called "Dock Ellis" Went to look for it on youtube -- it wasn't there, but damn, Mr. Ellis inspired quite a bit of music. Anyhow, found it on Manning's blog with along with links to a couple nice Ellis remembrances.
@Moonshine Mike: Back when I was cool, sometime near the beginning of W's first term, a couple members of her band crashed on my living room floor when they were coming through the Twin Cities. Manning was incredibly sweet -- very California, all sunshine and hugs, which is not what I had been expecting from the woman who recorded Scissors, but there ya go. I got a little snide about the jam band that opened for her, and this one song they had about a band of vikings dropping acid, and she said she wished she had heard it -- and told me about "Dock Ellis." I then felt like a jackass. Which I was. #drugs
This drunk boat captain in Belize gave me something similar that he had made. It looked like someone had weeded their garden, thrown the detritus in a bottle and then peed on it. He claimed it was "good for the wood" as he kept displaying a rigid forearm, while telling me how many kids he had sired. I don't think moonshine and weed is really going to give Viagra a run for its money, but he would argue. #weed
And since THC is fat soluble, not water or alcohol soluble, this wouldn't even work, aside from getting you drunk. The more you know...the smarter you are relative to the average cop. #weed
@atlasspanked: Well, you can use the THC resin oil to make honey which can be used to sweeten said beverage, etc.... oh heck, what am I talking about. #weed
@atlasspanked: As the resident chemist, I will tell you that THC is very soluble in alcohol. Its how you make hash, otherwise, your hash would be all oily. This guy was just selling "resin tinctures." Personally I'm surprised this didn't go into the "how we live today" segment, resorting to bong water. #weed
@Orgasmic-Chemist: 180 proof grain alcohol has it's own psychedelic effect, weed is just a lil bonus. I used to make pot tea from the twigs and seeds left after cleaning lbs, it was like liquid valium and a treat for friends on a hot summer day (I was the Martha Stewart of Dookie). This was way back when btw so no need to break down any doors. #weed

"Absolutely not! Ew, just look it. Disgusting!"
"It'll get you real high."
"I got five on it." #weed

Or maybe I just dreamed that that's what you're suggesting.
Either way: do this now. #weed
