I wonder who that guy came up with his nom de guerre?
First guy: Rambo killed hundreds, I shall be General Rambo!
second guy: Bin Laden killed thousands, I shall now be General Bin Laden!
Third guy:...umm...what everyone fears? hmmm, I know, General Butt Naked! |

actually watching vbs.tv last night. liberia, vodka wars. and some hipster dude going down the amazon river to meet up with a tribe to do the frog, but after 20 minutes of listening to this guy complain about mosquitoes that was enough for me.
they interviewed 1349 in their practice space and it was mind numbing. the bassist was blushing. didn't look like they have much fun there. the hot chip interview was way more interesting.
anyway, liberia. haha. |

There is an Amazonian frog called Phyllomedusa Bicolor or the Sapo which I have been reading about for years. It is totally different from the psychedelic toads found in North America. The Sapo’s venom produces an effect much closer to morphine than LSD, but really it’s not like either of those things. It’s a distinctly vomitous dissociative experience unlike anything else I’ve ever encountered.
There has been a lot written about the chemistry of the venom, and it has been said to have a diverse array of effects. Some people think its a miracle opioid which will yield new non-addictive pain killers, others think its a super potent stimulant and appetite suppressant, and even a strange psychedelic capable of tuning hunters into the mindset of their prey. In the 80’s researchers found one of the constituents of Sapo venom in the urine of autistic children, and developed an entire theory of autism around it.
I had to find out what this frog really does, but supposedly it cannot produce its venom in captivity. The only way to experience its unique trip is to travel down the Amazon River and catch one yourself, which is exactly what I did. – Hamilton |
