And drug distribution can be rather lucrative to the common man who would become an upright citizen if drugs were legalized.

Is that it?
LOL!

That's exactly what he said, he just doesn't know it yet.

Nothing trippier than listening to Strawberry Alarm Clock. I feel like i'm walking on air when i listen to them.

..........YES! that is a way to break in down....where was it comming from.....was it natural selection, as it appeared...........just a response to a Capitalistic decision to sell more helo-choppers. OR WAS IT ...A strategy of War.
Or a realization that the "war on drugs" is a total scam and a prime reason the economy is heading over the cliff? Yes , but more...Not a realization/ a peception.........do we really know who 's smoke we are smoking/ and how much is discharged to blow up our kilts. A Failed war on drugs because we need more drugs on the street?
heading over the cliff?...........Not a realization/ a perception.........do we really know who 's smoke we are smoking/ and how much is discharged to blow up our kilts.

A Picture, from who for what, painted with much expense in the American and World's Mind? Or is it real.......

I start from the the sartiristic position of Will Rodgers "I only know what I read in the papers."
Don't bogart that joint... my friend. Pass it o'ver to me!

Yeah, but it was the ambience of the sixties.

Least for me, it was.

For the most part, anyway.
