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!
NOW FOR A MUSICAL BREAK. THERE'S A TIME AND A PLACE FOR CHEESE. THE TIME IS NOW.

I love cheese. :)
yeamman!
the orange cheese is real good
Cygnus X Orange Theme? Alltime classic, deserves one of them banners reading "TUNE!"
this aint cheezy its BANGIN!!
I like the cygnus x orange, the ferry corsten mix
dunno why i called it cheesy. that was a top club track in its day, the mid-late 90s
tiesto's paradise is a bit cheesy, as is william orbit/ferry corsten barber's adagio, arguably
but barber's adagio for strings is one of the most famous pieces of classical music of all time. the danced up version was number one in the year 2000, if i remember rightly
Hi Gleds, good to see you doing the rounds I've seen your post on the wonders of the Bowerbirds sadly they don't visit me so I'll admit to having a touch of envy for those lucky enough to share a garden with them.
The snake is non venomous but enjoys hugging the life out of whatever it fancies*!* Stay warm!
That cheese looks damn good! I just had some parmesan cheese for breakfast, in fact.
Love you. Hope you will be feeling less stressed soon.

Delicious cheese. I have goat cheese with rosemary on it.
Does nobody like the fantastic music also? Click on Cygnus X Orange, the top one has a slightly better mix, the bottom one has a briliant video.
The Ferry Corsten/William Orbit Barber's Adagio is absolute classic.
The Paradise tune I loved when it came out in the late 90s and as I said Hold that Sucker Down Builds Like a Skyscraper mix really is one of the best club tracks of all time
