Arnold’s training was far too intense to think that he was high lifting those weights.

I don’t know about Arnold but I’ve done it a few times.
I spent half the time there sneaking into the employee lounge stealing donuts.
Not very productive. 
Arnold used weed after as I recall.

Did you see his movie Pumping Iron. He’s (at least was) definitely a pot head!

Ok, I know this is a marijuan thread and believe me, even if I don’t smoke it often, I am one who appreciates that herb very much. However, I was wondering. Am I the only mushroom lover here?[/quote]
I’ve done mushrooms several times, and they have been some of the most fun, most spiritual, most beautiful experiences of my life.
I once ate 6 grams in Golden Gate Park on a Sunday afternoon with my buddy Matt, and it was easily one of the best experiences of my entire life. Simply put, everything was beautiful. The visuals were extraordinarily intense, and I witnessed the beauty of people, of nature, and of a Sunday afternoon.
Do you know the typical hippier psychedelic drug trip that the media tries to capture with florescent colors, spinning flowers, rainbows and light? Well, I pretty much experienced that. Amazing.
I wish I had a stead supply of them. So hard to come by.

Might have been MDA. Or you could have gotten a meth bomb. A simple acetone wash to get rid of most cuts and generally you will pure molly(Pure MDMA to all those who do not know, it’s supposed to be the greatest).

Anyone for salvia? I’m smoked it about five times. I know how to do it, and I’ve never really tripped off of it.
its sold in smoke shops here in town
I have seen videos on youtube where dudes trip balls on tha tstuff
it scares me
I have done E before the 2 pills I mentioned before.
it was at raves and the yhanded them out at the door
I heard stories though that one the ones I had was cut with meth and the other cut with heroin how true that is I have no idea but I know I was rolling both times pretty good this was back early 90s
wont mess with it again now maybe its my age kicking in but
bud is all for me now I am done experimenting.

It is VERY VERY rare that pills are cut with heroin. It’s uneconomical. A good amount of pills today contain meth, but if you know your source it is possible to avoid them. Out of 1634 pills tested at EcstasyData.org, only 1 contained heroin.
I have never known anyone or come across someone who sells mushrooms. Weed, Cocaine, among other things no problem but mushrooms…?

I had a Salvia bush, two actually, until a few years ago. Unfortunately, the person tending them while I was away on vacation DROWNED them, even though I specifically told the person to only water once a week (he obviously wasn’t listening).
Anyway, Salvia is definitely NOT something to just play around with. I would recommend anyone taking it to have a “sitter” (someone not stoned).

Tell me about it. I used to have a steady source when I was in THE CITY (San Francisco), but when I moved down here to the boring-ass Penninsula, I lost touch with the guy.
Funny, though, that you should mention Golden Gate Park, I was walking there a few weeks ago with a friend of mine and somebody was selling 'shrooms there. Unfortunately, I almost never carry money on me anymore (damn, credit cards!) and so couldn’t make the purchase.

Congratulations on taking a heroid dose of shrooms.
To tell the truth, speaking of spirituality, when I take a heroic dose (5+ grams), the first half is usually a so-called “bad” trip (dark, some anxiety)…usually, there is something that I am supposed to be looking at. Once I discover what it is, then the trip turns beautiful. I don’t know if anybody else has similar experiences, but that is how it usually works for me.
Ok, who would have thought it, this place is starting to look like erowid

Yeah, unfortunately I moved from THE CITY, but thats where all my mushroom eating went down. I have bought mushrooms from hippies in the park before, and holllllllly shiiiiiiit, I can’t even begin to describe that trip. Probably the 2nd best drug experience of my life.
I moved back to SoCal and don’t even know where to begin to find mushrooms, although I’d love to have some.
Mushrooms kick ass and it sucks that so many people have not tried them before. Easily my favorite drug.
Although I agree with most of what has been said on this topic (weed should be legalized, no its not addictive, it wont hinder your ability to lift, etc) my personal experience with pot (everyone is different) was this:
I first tried it sophomore year in h.s. when i was a chubby lil’ bastard and due to munchies and not being athletic i quickly gained a fuckload of fat weight. I weighed 245lbs (all fat) between the end of my junior year and the middle of my second year of college (when i started lifting).
Between that time mary-j was a form of escape, I used it specifically not to feel bad about myself. After I started lifting it became more of a supplement, something to numb the soreness after long workouts.
Recently I have experimented with going long periods of time without smoking, as a result I feel more energetic in the gym and less likely to cheat on dieting (Im 195lbs now and somewhere around 8-10%bf).
I feel like weed is a great drug when appreciated (trust me i still appreciate it) but when I overuse it my mind gets clouded up. PS: try acid it will blow ur mind!
the only three side effects of weed…
hungry, happy, sleepy

You left out “horny” or is that what you meant by “happy”?
I haven’t checked out this thread in a while. Obviously it’s alive and kickin’.
We sure have a lot of potheads here, but I’m not one of them.

If I didn’t know better, I’d swear you all are a bunch of fucking hippies.
LOL
My kind of thread! Luckily they removed canabis from the drug testing at wrestling!

Not every pot-head gets horny while high. Luckily for my GF, I get very horny.

Hippies… what is in a name? You need to quit harshin’ my mellow, brah.
I haven’t smoked in over 20 years. At some point after the kids are out of the house (20 more years) I’d like to grow my own and then make cannabutter for baking brownies or cookies.
I understand if you make cookies you need to make sure you have other food around because if you get the munchies you might over due it a bit. hehe
There are recipes on the net for cannabutter. They go something like this; wrap the buds in cheesecloth. Blanch them in boiling water for 30 seconds. Simmer in butter and a little extra water with a crock-pot for 2-3 hours, then strain. Rechurn the butter in a cold, not frozen ice cream maker. You then will have delirium creating green butter.
