I watched "Taboo" the other night and they did a segment on it. Man............what a wicked concoction! I had to google it to find out more about it. It is attributed to VanGough's cutting off of his ear and said to be one's free ticket to an insane assylum. Hmmmm................

There was another segment about some South American bark-derivitive drug (sorry, forgot the name of that one) that is a very powerful hallucinagen. People from the U.S. actually PAID to go to this village to "experience" the "trip;" not the boat trip. OK, here's the deal...........I can vomit and have severe diarrhea right here at home.................FREE!!! No thank you....the side effects outweigh ANY benifits I may (or may not) experience from the bark of any tree..... sick sick sick sick sick sick sick sick sick sick
