About Me

I like politics, philosophy, parties and reading. Im a political activists. I like to blog. Here are some books that I highly recommend;
  • "Can You Pass the Acid Test?:
  • A History of the Drug and Sex Counterculture and Its Censorship in the 20th Century," available at
  • Amazon.com,
  • and
  • "Memoirs Of A Drugged-up, Sex-crazed Yippie,"
  • also available at
  • Amazon.com.
  • Memoirs takes the reader through the life of a 1970s counter-culture drug user. Mark Spies goes from casual pot smoking to habitual use of pharmaceutical narcotics and cocaine. Due to the changing sexual attitudes, Spies has several unconventional sexual encounters. The 1970s brought us the "Woodstock generation." There was a sense of idealism that developed at the beginning and died at the end of that decade. Many counter-culture books focus on the 1960s, yet there are plenty of events in the 1970s that deserve attention. Nixon's war in Vietnam and Cambodia dominated the news and affected America's youth. Nixon's war on drugs impacted the counter-culture life style. Then there was punk rock, disco, casual cocaine use and revolutions breaking out around the world by 1979. It can be viewed at:

RELEVANT QUOTE: "The art of life lies in taking pleasures as they pass, and the keenest pleasures are not intellectual, nor are they always moral." - AristippusCan You Pass the Acid Test? is more of a resourse book and will come in handy for those who want to argue about America's drug laws. It is heavily researched and has some amazing information in it. It is political and serious. So it's a completely different book, but I think many readers will want to get a copy. For one thing it exposes the racism of drug laws. It also shows how the narcotics population has remained nearly unchanged since the early 1900s. Some great arguments against our "war on drugs" can be found in this book.
  • Now available straight from the publisher for $12.25.
