is that the bloke that regularly does articles like this about his
'tours' around the world?? he did one last yr or so that was
brilliant.

 

The lengths people go to get goood drugz

 

Yeah, that sort of crap (you know, agony etc) is supposed to be character
building..... erk!

OTOH, how the f*** did pethidine make you happy? It just makes me spew......
<shudder>

betty

 

Not to mention being highly addictive, rooting your liver, needing massive
doses to actually do anything, and having toxic metabolites it's a wonderful
drug.


Ah, opioids. Better than a swift poke in the eye with a blunt stick (but
there may be advantages even to that....see the gateway theory of pain)

I have no advocate here to debate these things with so must expound on the
newsgroup

On topice - I did see the series Paris to Dakar that was on earlier in the
year. Bloody idiots, though Ewan MacGregor is exceedingly easy on the eyes.

 

Probably cos it was pethedine. [1]

Drop me a line. Got a meal (end of rotation) out on Tuesday night if you
want to meet some of the "workers"?

Mu, kappa and delta, come with me to the pub, let me bring my dorsal horn.

Apparently, there is a bloke, whom I have never meet, never heard anything
about, says stuff I have never heard can talk to you. ****, he must be a
top bloke. I bet he's never...... well, who fucking cares!

Is that like Hospice? A dementing fugue that washes over one (unlike that
friggin' shower!). Risk man entered! Can you believe?

Hammo

 

Oh ha ha. At l east I don't have glasses.

Show off. At least I wrote my essays for my grad dip! (besides, I've seen
your human horn...oh the consequences of it!)

Rip someone? Met him once I think (but it was a dark and stormy night)

Petty bastards if they did that to you. What ever happened to freedom to
stink the place out and be generally noisome?

 

But then you'd have to drink out of the bottle!

 

Or lick it off the bench if my current form is anything to go by...

 

Is that what they filled me up with at the hospital? Well worth it,
whatever it was. Whoa. Oh, that's a lot better.[*]

Cherry Advocaat?

I see no point arguing this point with a woman who married an orangutan.

-----sharks

[*] That hurt? they said to me, incredulously. Not really, I said, but
I felt the bones move and that's just not nice.

 

I had pethedine in 1970. I can still remember it!

Oh,yes! It worked very well for me, too.

Only trouble was, back then, in Scottish civilian hospital, the first
signs of a patient enjoying the medication, and the nurses stopped it. :-|

I was huuuge on Morphine when I had my big 5-month stint in hospital in
1982/3.
Pethidine (and Panadine Forte) were some of the pain-killers they used to
try and wean me off.
I got very very shitty and used to yell "THEY DON'T WORK" when my faking
wasn't rewarded with the desired trip off to heaven on a rush of morphia.
I understand how heroin addiction works now.

13 years later after my Phillip Island oopsie I was disgusted to find that
the hospitals were equipped with Pethidine constant-infusion machines
instead of the nurses coming around and giving you that glorious hit!

 

It's people like you who give hard (legal) drugs a bad name...I have a hell
of a time convincing people they can't get hooked if they use it in the
right way. Next time I hope they give you tramadol pessaries and a natropath
who believes in iridology and the healing power of dandelion tea!

And healing crystals. Inserted the correct way, of course.

 

Coffee enemas are still my favourite cure all, closely followed by massive
doses of apricot kernels.
