While the likes of Bachmann and Beck have described Hurricane Irene as some sort of blessing just about everyone else has a rather more negative view of such meteorological events.
On the other hand it appears that storms like Hurricane Irene encourage growth of psychedelic mushrooms.
Apparently one of the strange aftermaths of a hurricane is an increased amount of mushrooms, especially psilocybin. According to Casey Simon an addiction expert based in California, hurricanes create the perfect climactic conditions for the mushrooms to grow.
"Mushrooms are spores and they multiply in moisture and are spread by wind," he said.
Hmm watch out for a marked increase in magic mushrooms on the East Coast of the USA followed by a marked increased in "mushroom hunters", followed not long after by a marked increased in the number of third eyes getting a damned good squeegeeing (as Bill Hicks would say if he were still with us).
For me mushrooms are a thing of the distant past. There is no way I would ever want to try the bloody things again.
