Lower the vine.

This is abalone.

Slidyslidy. Slidyslidy.

So that's a fantastic story, and we all know how it ends.

Personally, these plants always kind of freaked me out

Cranes are big beautiful birds.

Paula Radcliffe is essentially unbeatable.

That's her competition.

They're trying to solve those same kinds of mysteries.

hm?

But then she falls back again.

You give her a quick crack in the teeth with your elbow and blaze for the finish line.

Gillyweed may be innocuous, but boomslang skin, lacewing flies?

I guarantee you, you saw something that no one has ever seen before.

But the under underdog hangs tough, and 22 miles into a 26 mile race, there is Derartu Tulu, up there with the lead pack.

The gun goes off, and I mean, she's not even an underdog she's, like, under the underdogs.

And these were all novices, and they built something that was really quite ugly nothing like a frog or a crane.

She loses the check, but she goes home with something bigger and more important.

It's made really of two different sources on the one hand, this woody liana which has in it a series of beta carbolines, harmine, harmaline, mildly hallucinogenic to take the vine alone is rather to have sort of blue hazy smoke drift across your consciousness but it's mixed with the leaves of a shrub in the coffee family called Psychotria viridis.

You show me a creature with webbed feet and gills somehow water's involved.

She hasn't won a marathon of any kind in eight years, and a few months previously, she had almost died in childbirth.

If you're wondering why the Tarahumara don't fight and don't die of heart disease, why a poor Ethiopian woman named Derartu Tulu can be the most compassionate and yet the most competitive, and why we somehow were able to find food without weapons, perhaps it's because humans, as much as we like to think of ourselves as masters of the universe, actually evolved as nothing more than a pack of hunting dogs.

Paula Radcliffe, the one person who is sure to snatch the big paycheck from Derartu Tulu's under underdog hands, suddenly grabs her leg and starts to fall back.

Now, the fascinating things are that the beta carbolines found within that liana are MAO inhibitors of the precise sort necessary to potentiate the tryptamine.
