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!

Cute, but I'll never own one, I'm allergic to dogs. Dang it.
Janice~
I don't particularly like terriers I prefer larger dogs. :)
They're adorable but I'd be forever afraid I'd step on it. The miniature poodle we had for 18 years was bad enough.
Janice: Allergic to pet-fur!! No!! That would be intolerable. Apparently Tony Blair's wife, Cherie, had a severe reaction and said compulsory summer breaks with the royals at Balmoral were a nightmare... fur everywhere ~ not only in the shape of corgis, but stuffed moose-heads on seemingly every wall... and so on. ;->...
Akelamalu: I know what you mean. I used to hate yappy little dogs, especially "toy" breeds.... I used to think "why not get a cat?!" ... I would have loved a giant Japanese wolf-huskie, but space is so limited it would be ridiculous and the poor swine would be too cooped-up. So if I DO want a dog it would have to be a little one really. I always thought "scruffy" looking terriers ~ like the cairn type were cute but still don't like those handbag dogs, pomeranians &c... (I only want a dog to go in a bag to hide, so it won't get nicked from outside Sainsbury's.... y'know...
Jeannie: They do look cute... as I was saying I never used to like dogs like this... but there is something to be said for if you're going small you might as well go tiny!!!
If I did get a dog I would probably get a mophead mutt terrier I 'xpect, anyhhow...
The puppies are cute!
My dog was already potty-trained when I got her, Gledds. We got her from a rescue shelter. She was nine months old.
Love,
SB
I think most animals have an instinct to toilet train themselves, otherwise they'd be doing weeeze and pooze in their bed, which hardly seems natural... know what i mean...
Cute little things.
I'd get beaten up if I got caught walking a doggie like that in my local park...
... (and so would the dog!)
note to self:
this is my msg to the bichon frise friend of the bichon frise via roaming with mary
Hi Remington! I just jumped in here via some of the other doggie blogs I found via a friend's site... do you mind my asking what breed you are? You look a bit like rottweiler crossed with some sort of water-dog... but what the breed would be I've no idea...
Hi there! Yes, my two dogs are both bichon frises. My big guy is a labrador / newfoundland that I adopted from the humane society. Thanks for stopping by my blog! You have some interesting things here!!
