Subject: [K-list] Re: K Pills and Cheap Thrills Poll
From: Divine Goddess

i experimented with marijuana,uppers, downers, and cigarettes
between the age of 13 and 15. i tried a mushroom at 18 but spit it
out cause it tastes sooooo bad.

Marijuana made body surfing in the gulf of mexico more thrilling, i
didnt like the feelings from uppers, downers made me fall asleep, and
cigarettes made me stink.

i found that reading science fiction and fantasy novels took me
farther and deeper away than any drug.

my other drugs of choice, when I can get them, Ben and Jerry's Phish
Food and Godiva dark chocolate truffles.

i can say my drug use had no influence on me in any philosophical way.

love,
susan
