Sandy Eego.
Truth be told,
I’ve seen Snowflakes,
Frozen Waterfalls and
Dead men on the Mexican Border.
I’ve worked on Drones,
Rescue Submarines and been
Over the Wall in a
Pitstop at the Indy 500.
Right now ,I want a cup of Coffee!

Title: This Mexican medicine woman hipped America to magic mushrooms, with the help of a bank executive

In the hills of Oaxaca, María Sabina used psychedelics to heal

Humans have consumed psilocybin, the naturally occurring psychedelic compound in magic mushrooms, for more than 10,000 years. Until the mid 20th century, the context was religious.

That changed on June 29, 1955, when a vice president of J.P. Morgan named R. Gordon Wasson traveled to Mexico with a photographer to the mud hut of the Mazatec curandera (medicine woman) María Sabina and they became, in Wasson’s words, the “first white men in recorded history to eat the divine mushrooms.”

-------- Boy, does this arrogant Gordon Wasson have a bloated opinion of himself? ---- he says that in 1955 he and his photographer pal were THE FIRST WHITE MEN IN RECORDED HISTORY TO EAT THE DIVINE MUSHROOMS (apparently all the other white men spit them out)

How long is recorded history?

LOL

________

Pittsburgh, PA fornearly all of my 72 years except for time in the Army Security Agency, playing some baseball in Floriduh in the early 70's, and a trip to Riverside CA. in 1968 for a college baseball tournament.

I've been hardly anywhere, but here on these four acres on the edge of the woods outside of Pittsburgh.

It's very beautiful ..... but, too many leaves to rake.

;-)

And to add.......

When we went to Riverside from cold blustery Pittsburgh of nasty March of 1968, Southern California was somewhat of a shock ..... sunny, blue skies the whole week we were there ..... and the GIRLS were nearly all in real good shape and beautiful. It was hard to concentrate on baseball.

Back in late 70’s early 80’s they were pretty popular around here. All you had to do in the summer was walk out to any local cow pasture. And pick them out of cow manure. We most always made tea out of them. Did see some more adventurous pick them straight out of cow shit and eat them.

But you had to know which ones to pick. A group of friends decided they would go pick a few. We were in high school. Picked a couple of the wrong kind and the whole bunch ended up in the emergency room. Mom’s and Dad’s were not amused.

This is likely planning a vacation that doesn’t cost a great deal of money.

I would imagine you have to plan food, and all kinds of other things for this trip to happen in a good way.

The only thing you need to plan is not having anything to do for the rest of the day. Food? Nawww. Won’t be eating. Sex seems like a good idea. For a minute. Kinda pops into your head. Then pops right out again. Not a good idea to be around people who are not tripping. Because some of the silliest thoughts come into your head and right out of your mouth. Other fellow trippers understand and think its the funniest thing! Non-trippers just think you are nuts. Which I guess you are.....

Beg pardon, but Amanita Muscaria and Santa’s flying reindeer beg to differ, Mr. Wasson.

More of the same.

Ad hominem and strawmen.

Your own fantasies of your own internal world.

It’s too bad you can’t actually talk about the subject.
