With special guest star, Chemise Lacoste. Also, special guest appearances by Ted Handsome and Fletch… My last acid trip: it wasn’t good. In fact, it was a total disaster. California sober, my ass. I had just come from the Grateful Dead concert and was having so much fun I wasn’t ready to come down yet.…
I’ve already begun planning my next dream vacation, and it’s all because of just one little-ole oatmeal raisin cookie. Let me explain. To begin with, there was nothing little about that cookie.

THE YEAR WAS 2081, and everybody was finally equal. They weren’t only equal before God and the law. They were equal every which way. Nobody was smarter than anybody else. Nobody was better looking than anybody else. Nobody was stronger or quicker than anybody else. All this equality was due to the 211th, 212th, and…
