I had that book with the red and black cover. Never could make much sense of it for LSD trips, but I did learn the word bardo. Brings back a whole era to me, both outer from Chicago in the 60’s to inner, from me to Yoiks the Void Cloyd! R Crumb as my psychedelic guide.

I wish I have been tripping for the last 2.5 years.

Luckily I have a trip to California scheduled in a couple months. I intend to buy out everything in the state.

It is better to be not-tripping and wishing you were tripping than the other way around.

(borrowed from the old aviator’s adage “it’s better to be on the ground wishing you were up in the sky than the other way around…”)

If we had some acid, we could drop acid and smoke pot, if we had some pot.
