7. On what?

I have been high as a kite -- just not on drugs. :P

On of my best highs was during a night of dancing back in the 80s at the I-Beam on Haight. Friends and I had been dancing for 3 hours straight to some seriously great music -- midnight hits and on comes "Rebel Yell" -- the crowd goes nuts and dances even harder. Amazing night.

I had someone come up to me the day after a cast party and say, "Damn, you were so wasted last night!" Imagine her surprise when I told her the night involved zero booze/drugs, just good friends and great music. Much better for your health and loads cheaper. :)

12. Ever meet someone who gets "high on life"

and then you get them good and stoned and they finally realize what they've been missing all these years?

11. Probably not what you had in mind, but

I selected older than 21 because my prescription meds.

Pain + pain killer + muscle relaxer = very loopy.

16. I first tried it when I was, I guess, 16 or so.

But I didn't get high. Guess I didn't inhale it right.

Tried it again in my twenties. Blew my fucking mind.

20. 13. I was at my granny's house in Cambridge for the summer, so I got to hang out with

the hippies around Harvard for a few months.

Learned a LOT that summer, I did.

29. Pot and my first booze buzz at the tender age of 14

Boone's Farm Strawberry Hill and a dime bag of what we referred to as Mexican. I didn't get high for at least the first four or five times that I smoked.
