Once that internet trip wears off I have a story to tell you about…

There was this crazy dude in the neighborhood I grew up in, everyone called him Power-Mike. Power-Mike sat outside an ice cream shop everyday in a full suit, rain sleet or snow, drinking Budweisers out of a coffee cup. Sounds fuckin awesome, right? Ehhh…not really.

If you ever tried talking to Power-Mike you were considered a fucking moron. Nothing that came out of his mouth made any sense, and he was guaranteed to yell some really offensive racial slurs mid-conversation. I once saw him yell at a lady for tying her dog to a tree because “she didn’t put any fuckin’ coffee in the meter.” For real.

Anyway, the story of Power-Mike goes like this: around 1970, when Power-Mike was in high school, his senior class took a trip out to an amusement park in New Jersey. This was the day that Power-Mike’s life changed. One of his classmates decided it would be funny to spike his soda with LSD while he wasn’t looking, and from then on, well…take a guess. Supposedly the acid kicked in while he was riding on a roller-coaster. After the ride, he punched the attendant in the face, got arrested, went bat-shit crazy, and became the resident crazy of Hastings-on-Hudson, New York.

The history of LSD usage in America parallels the story of Power-Mike more than you might expect. Forget all that lovey-dovey, peace and happiness shit that your parents told you about. When LSD was first introduced in America, the CIA went absolutely CRAZY experimenting with it’s potential military uses. They initially thought it was going to be a revolutionary new way to interrogate military hostages and control entire enemy populations. NO JOKE, you can read all about it here.

Acid Trip Stick and Pokes

The other day when I was looking for good photos to feature on SUPERCHIEF, I found a kid cooler than I thought existed. He’s an awesome, drug obsessed, NOFX-hating west coast kid. His photos are like an amazing documentary about his world of acid trips and skateboarding in god-knows-where suburbia.  Larry Clark couldn’t do any better.  Shit’s real kids, take a look.
