5. 1977; Rolling doobies on top of my "Flat As A Pancake" album.
"Save my life I'm going down for the last time, Give a good feeling I aint had in such a long time" (Or something like that - I was stoned after all)

Edited on Sat Dec-04-04 02:44 AM by the Princess
I'm having a flashback!

1978 I'm in someones basement - it's lit by blacklight - I hear Pink Floyd *Darkside of the Moon* I'm way too drunk and I smell a way too familiar mixture of Patchouli inscence and pot.........

Someone talk me down - *shudder*
