[Beginning of recorded material]
Rick Rosner: That if I could read at 2,000 words a minute without LSD. What could I do with a night of having my perceptions blown out?! It—it didn’t go well.
Scott Douglas Jacobsen: [Laughing].
RR: I take the LSD. I hide in the bathroom as the library closes. As it turns out, I am completely paranoid about a janitorial crew.
SDJ: [Laughing].
RR: My perceptions are pretty whacked at this point. I’d see a garbage can on wheels where there hadn’t been one before. Then I would get hungry, and would go down to the basement, and I knew how to reach into the vending machine to get stuff without paying for it.
SDJ: [Laughing].
RR: I would pull half of a burrito, only a torn half of a burrito during the extraction process [Laughing]. Ate half the burrito, it didn’t make me feel a whole lot better. I freaked out. Finally, I gave up, and had to go find a janitor. At this time, your processing is all messed up because everything is moving slowly. My freaking out probably took like 5 hours. By the time I go find a janitor, and begged to be let out of the building [Laughing], it is almost sunrise.
SDJ: [Laughing].
