Off you go to WAL-Mart to buy all the topNotch stainless steel cookware, plastic funnels, candy thermometer, flour sifter, whisk, cakepan, drain opener, stoppin' by Home Club on the way back for some driveway cleaner, vinyl tubing, copper fittings, starting fluid and furniture stripper, and don't forget the Handyman's friend, a dozen rolls of duct tape! You get home, lock the doors, load up the sawed off shotGun, and you're ready to cook some crank! Now, EVEN THOUGH, you have the FOOLproof recipe, a temperature controlled sealed burner stove from Kenmore and all the above mentioned, state of the art technology at your fingertips.... STILL... things MIGHT go wrong. I will have to resort to some rather technical, scientific notation to illustrate my point here... you can skip over this stuff if it's too complicated, but you SHOULD try to follow me on this if possible, fig 2 represents what you are attempting to achieve: Hydriodic Acid + l-ephedrine + P + sautee 2hrs = pure d-methamphetamine o p \o / ~-~~ \ \ `-'' \o/ O\O : / / o O\O | ~ . \ \ ~ h===i Q . \o / U L _|_ _._ \o/ _|_ fig.2 \ / | \ |\ //|/\ \/ | \ d===\/ \|\ \ | \ /|/ \ | \ | \ / \ E /p\ m / \ / . \ / \ / : \ | \ | . \ | \ | \ _| \_ _| _._ \_ but before we start pouring martinis, snarfling rails and pissing on ourselves, perhaps we should scrutinize our product a little more carefully with the aid of POPeye's Magical Microscope... and while we're at it, maybe review our synthesis to see if we've overlooked any details. First of all, due to forces yet unexplained, we know that the electromagnetic field generated by the high resistance electric heating coil on the stove can create havoc if one is trying to rearrange those electrically charged bonding doohickey's nearby, like in a chemical reaction. So it's a good bet we've got some mutated molecules somewhere.... let's take a look (fig.3) yup, just as I thought, looky here: ( _ ) O\O ~ U fig. 3 _|_ //|/\ / \|\ \ \ /|/ \ \,| \ - . - ..'_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_ - - - - - - - - - -`- '-_-.o0/0OOooo... . ` .'.~ _- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -\- - -./_. - . > - . - ..- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -/- - - .zZ \ ' . ``.~ _ .-.- - - - - - - - _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _`\ /_/ |/\ \ ` .'.~ _. - _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ \ \\/ \|\ \ \ - . - ..- - _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ /|\ \ \ ` /fig.5\_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ > \ \ \/|\ / \ - / // \ M - - - - - - - - - - - - -/- - -//- - \\ - `.>- - - - - - - - - - - / / \ / \ \ \ \ \ _ ` \ \ \ \ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _/-_-_/_ .. |_-_-_-_\ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ HEY, it could happen!! Time to head for the HobbyShop, and spring for the hi-dollar stuff... Had our eyes on the 3" poly fractionating column in the Jr ChemBoy Set. I read on USENET that if you attached some hose to a sidepipe and sucked on it, you can totally control the boiling points. Hell, if we run this rxn every weekend, we can suck enough of them out for a hit... in about 10 years You always want to pour the HI (or any reactive drink) into your rxn vessel sloooowly, why? Cuz if you pour too hard, or from too high, or from the bottom of the liquid first, you always get a bunch of these smushed things: see fig.6 ~-~~ O~O / (some say these are from excessive fig.6 \o / /_ \ use of magnetic stirs, that's ob- \o/\|Q_\_ |/ M viously preposterous!) d=== _||/// \\|\_ these are inert compounds. We call them inert because they're resultant from sudden stops at high speeds, the effect of inertia. aka `the J.Dean-Picasso effect' As we all know, rxns should always be done in dark, quiet, preferably cop free places, otherwise you will undoubtedly produce a variety of the following analog. `\|/\|/' > O/ O < '/|\/|\` \o / Q \o/ _|_ | \ / | \ f=== \/ | \ fig.7 | \ | \ / \ B / \ / \ | \ | \ _| \_ fig.7 You don't need POPeye's Magical Microscope Guide to recognize this guy. This is a location specific active compound with a duration of a few milleseconds. This goes straight to the buss on the optic nerve circuits and fires everything at once. You cook enough of these pesky creatures into the mix and you'll swear some CIA guy is following you around with a flash camera. Further investigation has revealed that the HI acid has been imported from the Argentinian Chemical Industry. This can cause some real problems. If the HI has not been stored ABOVE the equator for at least a year, many of the electrons are still orbiting the neutrons in the opposite direction causing utter polar chaos when introduced to Northern Hemispheric reagents and compounds. Let's continue our search, with this in mind, to see what kind of empirical evidence we can mangle to support this data, in a most scientific way, of course. fig.8 a&b ~ 0 \ |~ fig.8 a This molecule is out of phase, or in 'lateral | aspect'.

I knew there'd be some of them floatin' around in there, POPeye's an optimist! Of course, we knew all along that those counterclockwise HI electrons would knock SOME of those l-Meths halfway around and foil the wretched Pseudoephedrine demon. Maybe we'll be closin' the Mad Dog Saloon tonight, after all. Just like I said ! or NOT!!!!! Remember when we spoke about imposters and blockers in our review of the CNS ?

But it just might be right enough to fit the slot where our MethBuddy is trying to expedite our synaptic lifestyle. He's a real first runner-up, this guy, and an ace candidate for breaking off the key in the lock... A mutant like this, in sufficient quantity could block some or all of the effects of Methamphetamine. A fucking speed-blocker, the antidote, a goddamn CURE for the Tweak! Just what we need. This collection we shall refer to as GodKnowsWhat # 30,867 v1.1. Oh, well.... shoot it up and hope for the best.... that's what I always say. -POPeye cont. in
