I'm on the road, so the Opium Den is silent tonight. Be back next week. So why not download an interview from Archives? There are a bunch of good ones, depending on your mood. If you like LSD, you'll love Nick Sand. Back in the early 60s Nick manufactured what is still considered the best LSD. A very interesting man. Like MDMA? Then give Rick Doblin a listen.

Anyone that knows me knows I'm a firm believer in repealing adult drug prohibitions. So it should come as no real surprise to find I believe just as firmly in ending prohibitions against the adult sex trade. We have shown to be unable at keeping individuals from consuming drugs, and we're certainly not going to get anyone among us to quit fucking. And since drugs and sex seem to often go hand-in-hand, I thought I'd ruminate on that a bit.

And doing a line of coke again wouldn't hurt, either. It seems our president has apparently forgotten his early years when smoking pot and snorting coke was something he found fun to do. He needs to be reminded of those happy days. So how else to do so but get back into the game? Maybe do it the same way he handled his beer summit. Get an acknowledged and experienced expert on both substances (I'm tanned, rested and ready, by the way, Mr. President), and head out to a nice spot in the Rose Garden and cop a buzz. And talk about how silly and stupid drug prohibition has become.

I'm on the road speaking for little money to small groups about the logic and timely nature of repealing drug prohibition. It is always fun, and the crowd usually gets me high when I'm done. Anyway, I'll be back live on March 4 with Kris Krane, a favorite here inside the Opium Den. Kris will tell us all about his new gig in California.

In the meantime, click archives to hear some of the great interviews with drug policy reform leaders and other interesting folks!

There was a time when the merry pranksters at Disney paid athletes and other victorious folks to utter that sentence when asked how they'd celebrate the win. "I'm going to Disney World!" The phrase entered everyday conversations, eventually, like other catch phrases, becoming an ironic parody - 180 degrees from where it started. And it left popular conversation, as it had truly run its course.
