When an inside trading scandal is as puny as the one against Winnie "The Poohster" Jiau (hedge funds paid her $200K for tips, which is how much Lloyd Blankfein's iPad case cost) it's only natural to seize on the more titillating aspects of the case, like how a witness against her somehow testified about his bad mushroom trip. Totally told you to stay away from those purple ones bro!
Insider Trading Case Gets Weird With Bad Mushroom Trip Story
Latest Nightclub Drug Wars Reveal Return of 'Ludes
Clubland may have shed a Visine-assisted tear upon news that the church that once housed the Limelight will soon be turned into a boring store, but at least partygoers are apparently able to turn to some familiar coping mechanisms making their first appearance in years—drugs like quaaludes that the DA's office says are back on the scene. Prosecutors tell the Post that recent busts have turned up "designer drugs rarely seen since the hippie era" that also include ecstasy-like BZP and the short-term trip-inducing DMT. A rep from the DA's office tells the paper, "We're seeing the emergence, particularly, of hallucinatory drugs. It's definitely related to the club scene, and targeted at selling to college students." The drugs have been particularly prominent at Asian night clubs and Flushing karaoke bars. Cops who busted a ring that sold at clubs such as Pacha, Rebel and Suzie Wong's say that the drugs from eras past have found their way into new packages, such as being disguised as Transformer figures and Obama campaign pins.
