"Shooting PG is a terrible hassle, you have to burn out the alcohol first, then freeze out the camphor and draw the brown liquid off with a dropper - have to shoot it in the vein or you get an abscess, and usually end up with an abscess no matter where you shoot it. Best deal is to drink it with goof balls...So we pour it in a Pernod bottle and start for New Orleans past iridescent lakes and orange gas flares, and swamps and garbage heaps, alligators crawling around in broken bottles, and tin cans, neon arabesques of motels, marooned pimps scream obscenities at passing cars from islands of rubbish ...
New Orleans is a dead museum."
- William S. Burroughs, Naked Lunch.
[film-still from David Cronenberg's Naked Lunch]
