Doonesbury by Garry Trudeau for September 11, 2014

Duke got his money’s worth.

“Better living through Chemistry!”(Self-administered, that is!)

what?

Ah, yes, ah yes.

Oh dear. Duke seems to be ready now…

What an era it was, amazing, as here we are on the 13th anniversary of 9-11.

I’ve forgotten the lies that were told about how much fun taking LSD was. Trudeau has a lot to answer for.

Duke has an unusual body chemistry, which accounts for the difference between his experience and yours.

right, Better living through Chemistry. lol how true

Reality is for people that can’t handle drugs.

I hate to advocate drugs, alcohol, violence, or insanity to anyone, but they’ve always worked for me.

Hunter S. Thompson

I’m still waiting for the acid flashbacks they promised me when I was in high school.

“/ /\ \.i./ /\ \”~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~WHAT?

He’s probably still intact, pickled, in his coffin by all the drugs and alcohol.

Hey, that guy looks a LOT like Carlos Castaneda!

The thing I remember most were what we called tracers. Unfortunately I used to smoke, at night high on acid if you waved your cigarette around you could see a long trail from the heater, if high enough you could draw letters. Fun times in the 70’s lol

I think I took LSD, but I can’t remember.

@ Illegal Seagull, from yesterday:

Rarely agree with his politics, but my favorite episodes of “Wait, Wait” are ones when PJ O’Rourke is in on the panel.

as I recall, this is the result of an extract from the pineal glands of male adolescent iguanas.

@montessoriteacherThank you for remembering.

Well said, green. I, too, took acid several (30?) times back in yore, and I had many revelations and made many important decisions while tripping. All – yes, all – have been proven right, at least for me. Perhaps I would have arrived at them without the tripping, but we’ll never know that, will we?

@tudza2

You are correct.It was an extract made from the pineal gland of male adolescent iguanas.

Trudeau is obviously critcizing and satirizing drug culture here.
