Saw an episode once where a young couple smoke grass and their little toddler
drowns in the bathtub because they're so stoned that they forget about her.

actually, there is NO lethal dosage for LSD. there is a lethal
dosage for alcohol and most other drugs. people do not die because
of LSD, they die because of what they do while they are on LSD. ;-)

I have fond memories of getting stoned and watching these shows in
their first run, and I lived in LA at the time! It was (and still
is) funny how well dressed everyone was. And how totally devoid of
humanity.

If you didn't know it, Jack Webb was great pals with Chief Parker and
was doing the series as a public service (besides as a money-making
venture, that is). His sermon to the Tim Leary character was outstanding.
Harry Morgan did pretty well :p too.

I love it when Joe Friday tells someone off. It's funny. He is so
monotone.

Yeah, I talk like that all the time when I'm tripping and try to paint my
face so that the citizens around me will see something's "up". There's
another episode out there about some guy giving acid to these two little
teenyboppers in dresses and nice patent leather shoes. They see monsters
(Joe? Bill?). Jack Webb was just right for Friday - too bad Friday was a
role model for sooo many law enforcement types

Marajuana is the flame. Heroin is the fuse. Acid is the bomb! I love that
show.

This is not true. There is a lethal dosage for LSD. It just happens to
be 1000's of times the active dosage. I am on your side man, but let's
stop spreading incorrect information.

I bet you think you're pretty "way out," don't you? Lay off the junk,
baby.

Don't hassle the chicks, buddy.

> They see monsters. (Joe? Bill?).

Yeah.

Mm-hmm. Just the facts. And don't mouth off to "the man".

Yeah. Sure. Mm-hmm.

Love,

The Blue Boy episode is the greatest, especially when his father tells Sgt.
Friday that his son wasn't violating any law, i.e., it wasn't like his son
was smoking pot or anything.

(I am new to the USENET and this is my second attempt at posting. If anyone
reads this and it is not in the form of a posting please tell me what I (
probably) did wrong, if it is not too much trouble. Thanks.
