Quaalude

think I just deleted 100 people or so, if you were one Sorry.
"Ludes" were also known as panty droppers, makes chicks horny as hell and guys can go all nite. A great drug that should be legal for recreational use. Like a six-pack in a pill. In the 1970's you didn't have to spike a chicks drink she was more the willing to throw caution to the wind and take a Quaalude and lose all her ambition. I know it's something the "rohypnol generation" could never understand but why do you think ugly dudes in the 70's were getting laid? (Rohypnol is "elom" and it sucks) Similar buzz to alcohol but not a depressive and alot more fun and you stoners might like to know you could smoke them too! i remember smoking many Quaaludes. had a weird taste but the rush was well worth it.Methaqualone was first synthesised in 1955, by an Indian scientist called M.L Guiral. Within a decade, it was being prescribed as a remedy for insomnia, and used in the developing world to treat Malaria. At that time, in keeping with the cleverness that was leading them to fling sweet jars of Valium at slightly anxious housewives, the medical profession believed it had found a sedative that had all the benefits of barbiturates (i.e it "zonked" your gran out, ready for bed) and none of the drawbacks (overdosing, rapid dependence, waking up feeling like Frankenstein's monster). They were wrong, but we'll come on to that later. In the U.S, the William H. Rorer company came up with the 'Q' word, and began manufacture in 1965. Over in the UK, methaqualone was marketed as Melsedrin, Tuazolone and Mandrax. The latter caught on, and by the end of the '60s, London's bohemians had discovered that the drug had unimagined recreational uses. Handily, as with E, tablets (featuring the legend 'MX') were scored with a bissecting line - so it was that the '60s underground invented the concept of the Cheeky Half.It was Quaaludes - aka 'Ludes, Quacks, Qs, Love Drug or Heroin For Lovers - that most often found their way into rock star's metabolisms. In tribute to their omnipresence, The Tubes' singer Fee Waybil christened his parody of rock-star silliness Quay Lude. In 1972 came the death of Crazy Horse's Danny Whitten: a heroin overdose has come to be the accepted explanation, although Rolling Stone blamed Quaaludes. "Rock'n'roll has seen its first methaqualone OD," said a 1973 piece entitled Unconsciousness Expansion.On August 28, 1976, after partying all night at the beach town of Oceanside, California, Anissa Jones (little girl from family affair) was found in the bedroom of a friend's house, where she had died in her sleep. The coroner's report listed her death as accidental drug overdose. Found in her system were methaqualone ( Quaalude) The coroner who examined Jones reported that she had died from one of the most severe drug overdoses he had ever seen.As a result of the Senate hearings, Quaaludes were reclassified as a Schedule II drug, making them that bit more difficult to obtain. The Juice Bars were quickly rumbled, and New Yorkers had to buy their papaya crush and fall asleep elsewhere. The Quaalude craze, however, simply mutated, and pills manufactured in illegal labs flooded the market. In 1981, the American Drug Enforcement Agency seized enough Methaqualone to make 200 million tablets. A DEA scheme called Operation Hammerhead reached its conclusion in 1984, breaking up an international gang that had apparently manufactured 54 tons of the stuff.The US could not go on watching its progeny stagger about, total Dad's car and sleepily grope one another, and in 1984, methaqualone was belatedly classified as a Schedule 1 substance - meaning that drug companies could no longer manufacture it, and even the most fashionable doctor had to stop writing prescriptions.The last legal tablet was produced by the the Lemmon company a year before the reclassification. Moreover, when it came to contraband Quaaludes, the government claimed a rare victory in the self-styled War Against Drugs: "You simply will not see illicit, counterfeit Quaalude tablets on the street any longer," said the Miami State Attorney. Whether the dealers had actually jacked in three dollar tablets in favour of expensive cocaine and even bigger condos and speedboats is a moot point.
