Most of these come from my
Random blog, which is an electronic scrapbook of stuff I thought I might like to view at some time or other. For those who want to view stuff on drugs I've collected the very best links here. Unless otherwise stated these are full-length features, usually an hour or more.
If you have a slow connexion and are unused to viewing multiscreen films on Youtube here's what to do: click the first one and play on mute, stopping and starting as it does. Then, when it's done, click on Repeat Play and you get the full entertainment without interruption. While you watch screen one, do the same to screens 2, 3 and so on. So as each bit finishes, the next part's ready and waiting.
Mexican Black Tar Heroin: "
Dark End"
Khun Sa, whose name meant Prince Prosperous, had been, before his death in the mid 2000s, the world's biggest dealer in China White Heroin: "
Lord of the Golden Triangle"
In-depth portrait of the Afghan heroin trade at its very height. Includes heroin-lab bust. "
Afghanistan's Fateful Harvest"
Classic miniseries whose title became a catchphrase for the misery of life in East Asian prison. Nicole Kidman plays a privileged middle-class girl set up to mule heroin through Thai customs with the inevitable consequences. This is so long it had to be posted in two parts. "
Bangkok Hilton 1" (first 2 hours or so); "
Bangkok Hilton 2" (last couple of hours).
Short film: from tapwater-clear H4 in the USA to murky black Afghan brown in Norway: "
Heroin Addicts Speak"
Before his untimely death this guy kept a video diary. Here's the hour-long highlights as broadcast on BBC TV: "
Ben: Diary of a Heroin Addict". Thanks to
Noah for the original link.
Some of the most entertaining scenes from Britain's top soap (as much for the poor research as anything else). Not even Phil Mitchell would go from nought to multi-hundred pound binges this fast: "
Phil Mitchell on Crack" (just over 5 minutes).
Scientist lady shows us how to cook up gear: "
How Much Citric?" Lucky cow: her brown is 70% purity! Oddly we never see her actually do her hit... maybe she got camera shy...
And lastly:
German documentary following a life from teenage addiction to untimely death before the age of 30. The decline in this girl's appearance is truly shocking. "
Süchtig: Protokoll einer Hilflosigkeit". Sorry no subtitles; this is here for anyone learning German who's after practice material a little more gripping than Lindenstraße!
HAVE AN ENTERTAINING SUNDAY EVERYONE... no talk of d***s today... I am just thinking Sunday lunch... and how I must wash my clothes they STINK of tobacco smoke like I'm the Ashman of London. Dreadful stuff. Righto what else was I going to say: hey do you like that hammy apparently hanging upside down from an oven shelf? (Looks like an oven shelf to me...) Take care everyone... have a nice weekend what remains...

All I did was eat this weekend...We still have boxes of cookies, Jelly Beans, Cherry Pie, and pound cake sitting on the counter just waiting, nevermind the pastries that came in this morning.....no work just munching and naps today!!
Can't see your picture Gleds. Have a good weekend hon. x

BAKED HAMMY FOR LUNCH!?!
Cute pic!
Well, Gleds, I'm not around for a few days and your life goes haywire...chemical burns, blisters and threat of abscesses...not good at all.
I just hope it comes right for you, but just watch that you don't get those blisters infected...could be very nasty, as I'm sure you realise.
Hope all improves for you soon, Gleds...you've got plenty of support from Blogland, anyway.
Take care...and here's a hug.
Hey gled...my visits have been less frequent (everywhere, not just here)...working a lot more and have had a lot on the go. Love the picture...so cute.
.... Oh I thought the hammy was simply taking a ride on the underground tube ... standing room only lol gorgeously adorable *!*
Hope you are feeling a little better.
Too cute Gleds, looks like its doing gymnastics...Hope sunday lunch was good....
Gleds, Liza is great, but unfortunately has to live in the shadow of her mother, Judy Garland, (Wizard of Oz) who was in a special category of greatness. Here's a link to some YouTube clips of Liza in Cabaret - better yet go rent the dvd.
Garland maybe didn't sing as technically well as Minelli, but she just had a great presence and made every song her own. See if you can find the Carnegie Hall two disk album. Here's another link
These might take your mind off your abcesses for a while. Cheers.
Tom: Excellent stuff!
Akelamalu: Can't see my picture? what no pictures? what happened? just blank boxes with crosses in?...
DSinner: ah maybe that IS me ~ haHAARGH!!
Anon: That was him hanging over the breadcrumbs bowl... haHA!!
Welshcakes: ta!
Puss-in-Boots: dr's giving me strongest antibiotics just to stop it GETTING infected... heavy stuff (I spose..) ta for getting in touch again. hugs back ;->...
Debs: cheers: I've not been around much either. But I hope your tooth's better by now! ;->...
Bimbimbie: or maybe that was upside down with someone grabbed hold of the ankle... actually that's far far more complicated even~...~...
Auds: that is hammy-gymnastics...
Steve: ah, see! that was very perceptive of you:~ "Garland maybe didn't sing as technically well as Minelli, but she just had a great presence and made every song her own" ~ that is v well put. I do like ole Lyzer's voice...
The picture of the Hammie is cute. Much cuter than your recent batch on boils and sores which though educational, can't compete with this photo.
Hey Gleds, I've been sick for a couple weeks and haven't "made the rounds" lately.
The cat videos are too funny. (and accurate, too)
Hope you are well.
ta ra!
LoneGrey:... the pus can't compete?!? I should think so, too! (hey! v near typo: "I should think so, goo!" wouldn't THAT have been a cracker..!!)
JimD: hey Jim don't worry I've barely done "the rounds" either I dunno I wasn't too shyte hot either and so really didn't do too much either... o man I gotta go I'm still a-SLEEP on my FEET today by the seemings! !! ;->...
take it easy!!
