The "heaven" is only in their minds. If you get to be as enlightened as Kevin, you would also begin to notice what is going on inside people's minds.
Oh dear... and here I just told someone in chat the other day that it seemed like you were making progress, Elizabeth.

Not much chance of that if you're going back to Kevin-worship.

Here's an interesting exhibit. Those who haven't seen it might find rather instructive:

I'm not even kidding when I say one ought really to be able to put together a lawsuit over such a transformation.

I read the "*ducks and runs for cover*" as sarcasm.

Yes, someone else suggested that also. It's rare for my sarcasm-detector to totally fail, but it looks like that may be what happened this time. If that is the case I apologize to Elizabeth. The "case study" I pointed to is still valid, though, and it's something that has been discussed before in other venues.

It's an interesting contradiction how people can live in a pile of stinking rubbish at the same time as experiencing the heavens of drug highs.
I'd still like to know what Kevin was thinking when he wrote this. Was he speaking of the bare few minutes of euphoria that may accompany the rush of shooting up? What's "interesting" about this? All I saw was despair, and a lousy-assed idea for a thread.

The drug high lasts for a lot longer than a few minutes. I believe that people who take "ice" can be high for at least a couple of days - without sleeping.

They look like they're incredibly miserable, but in their minds I expect that they're experiencing some kind of bliss.
