The first thing, no, the second thing that ran through my mind was the 1967 movie starring Peter Fonda and Dennis Hopper.....THE TRIP.

Thanks snappy, not everyone in my house appreciates this picture, (there's only me and Tess).. nice to have a positve response.

I never saw that movie Bob... I guess you're more of a 60's guy than I was.

The Trip (1967) - IMDb

My reference was to the Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test , a book by Tom WOlfe

I like it man , it's groovy baby could be a scene from Laugh-In or something from an Austin Powers movie (for the younger crowd) - not eveyone in the house likes it haha nice one - sounds like a split decesion and tie goes to the photographer ?

hmmm, maybe a Barbarella reference would have been more gender appropriate.

You know, I was going to comment on this interesting shot, but can't at the moment because there's some kind of purple haze flowing through my brain and I'm trying to chase down the white rabbit running around the backyard. When I catch that rabbit, I'll try to help him relax and explain that while there are few white rabbits around, there are other animals and you gotta love the one you're with. But what do I know? At my age, my mind keeps goin' through them changes and I don't want to find myself down on the killing floor.

Far out, man.

I wonder if I was supposed to ask Bob what the first thing that ran trhough his mind was? (Although asking about anything in Bob's mind can be a scarry thing fraught with peril.)

Jer... stay away from the brown acid dude.
