On my own front porch I have a palm tree growing in a blue toilet bowl . . . and on occasion I like to wander outside, stark naked and fire my .44 Magnum at various iron gongs I've mounted on the nearby hillside. I like to load up on mescaline and turn my amplifier up to 110 decibles for a taste of "White Rabbit" while the sun comes up on the snow-peaks along the Continental Divide. - Dr. Hunter S. Thompson, Woody Creek, Colorado, December 17th, 1969 I was discussing the lack of good night visibility (re: meteor showers etc.) here with scarybaldguy, and opined on the advisability of retiring to somewhere like Snowflake AZ, which would give good night visibility and also has a Mormon temple there. And the houses aren't too expensive; 3 acres with a 2000 sq.ft. house for $250-300k?
And then I could set up my gongs and get a firearms permit and be my own gonzo. I love it.
And yes, I'd play "White Rabbit" as loud as I could get away with it.
ah, back in the day, a carload of us would often be on a road trip to somewhere (even if the destination was just the nearby beach), singing along with the radio... six or seven people crammed into one car, all howling "FEED YOUR HEAAAAAD, FEED YOUR HEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAD!" at the top of our lungs....

One pill makes you larger, and one pill makes you small,
And the ones that Mother gives you don't do anything at all,
Go ask Alice, when she's ten feet tall;
And if you go chasing rabbits, and you know you're going to fall,
Tell 'em a hookah-smoking caterpillar has given you the call,
Call Alice, when she was just small;
When the men on the chessboard get up and tell you where to go,
And you've just had some kind of mushroom, and your mind is movin' low,
Go ask Alice - I think she'll know;
When logic and proportion have fallen sloppy dead,
And the White Knight is talking backwards, and the Red Queen's "Off with her head!",
Remember what the Dormouse said.
Feed your head, feed your head!
