Quite an amazing story; sad but very inspirational:

Living while dying: 'Little Buddha' wisdom from a terminally ill 'goofball'

http://www.cnn.com/2017/07/05/health/claire-wineland-cystic-fibrosis-eprise/index.html

Romans 12:16-21

Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly, do not claim to be wiser than you are.  Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all…do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

I did goofballs once. I think it was secobarbital or some shit. Man was that a low stress day.

Man I miss the 70's  or was it Man I missed the 70's?

Goofballs were some mellow stuff.  Not to be confused with Speedballs.  Cuz that shit will knock you up!

Sadly, secobarbital seems impossible to get anymore, even with a prescription.
