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!
A YURKSOME yukky slumbersome, sticky, intractably drab Sunday. Do you know: either I am going crazy or the same Cinderella film has been on for over 3 hours and STILL the Royal couple have yet to tie the knot? Honestly. I have very little to say apart from this. I hope your weekend went better...

Sorry folks that was about all I had to say today. Was trying to avoid the phrase "I hate Sundays"!
Hope Monday is better Gleds.
cheers!
How I loathe Sundays!
;->...
Fortunately, I went out for a nice healthy bike ride before it rained, so I felt quite good about life. Miserable afternoon, but I was reading so didn't really notice.
I don't mind Sundays, it's the one day I don't have to do anything domestic or work related! Cindarella? My what eclectic tastes you have!
Sundays I like well enough, it's the Mondays that get me.
My Sunday isn't even as good as yours. It started off nice enough my phone line were fixed this morning so I now have the access to the internet again, but my washer broke down. The repairman will be here in three days.
Yikes.
At least I still have a warrenty on the machine.
Janice~

Gleds, I think it's time for two Saturdays in your weekend *!*
Z: good on yer
BAINO: well it was watched on "aerial making channels go fuzzy and could not be bothered reorganizing things" basis
CITIZEN OF THE WORLD: no even when I worked I'd rather be working than rotting
JANICE: it didn't spill out all over the floor~ when door dares to be opened...? That's what mine did... except it's not "mine" and still nominally "works"... I think I'd be exceedingly peeved too if I were you...
CORPSE DOLL: well it hasn't gone yet: still waiting on the dealer at 20 to 11
BIMBIMBIE: definitely...
