Your insights about a special era.

Well gate it has been done before.. now where was it they(fbi) left boxcars full of heroin in ahhh harlem I belive it was, in the late fifties?. n got all the black people strung out or dead.. it was pure smack and hundreds of young black males OD'd. Ya know I can see the poor black element wanting to excape from their poverty and the injustice in it all, but for middle class kids to want to pass out and puke all over themselves I can't fathom. I like to be aware of what's goning on around me. I passed out once on a crash from speed and woke up and my pad had been ripped off. There were people in my pad smaked out and just let the ripoffs in n let them steal me blind while they nodded off..ya cant trust a junkie EVER!!! they will cut your throat to get a bump.

The BOA burned brightly that night in IV, Gate. It was the prettiest thing I ever witnessed. Lost a good bic lighter that night as I went running to find a place to hide... ended up in a little bistro across the street. Poking my head above the window ledge to watch the Man first try to save the BOA, then to watch the choppers come in to wage war.

Yeppers, it was a helluva night for radical freakdom.

Sorry for bringing this thread back up, but I was browsing through and found there were a lot of replies that I hadn't read before. Yours tripped my trigger.

Yup. It was Mexican Brown in SF... And "Keepin' the Niggers Down" in Harlem. There's just too much money to made off of drugs... that's why the gov't is in the business.

Madonna is pure genius. She uses her body and her mind to shock. Electronic music is not rock, I'd don't care for it, but to take away the brilliance of this woman by calling her a slut is just... too, too.

Elvis let his ego and his pecker get the best of him.

Madonna's a genius at being a slut. In reality, her agents are the real geniuses. She has none of the class of the 60s. I liked the way they dressed her up just like Marilyn Monroe back in the 80s at the Grammys . They even had her mimic Monroe's facial expressions.
