I think my favorite is where he describes what is probably where the bizarre idea that LSD could make you think you can fly comes from. It is chilling and [almost natch] involves the CIA. Also, his adventures with professional paranoid Alex Jones are a hoot. It takes a bit to get used to the fact that he is not writing some strange version of fiction, but an even stranger version of fact. Definitely read  EVERYTHING by this guy.

Do not let that terrible <i>The Men who Stare at Goats</i> movie fool you. The book is mind blowing and terrifying. <i>Them</i> is where I'd recommend starting. Great interview BTW.  I also recommend everything Jon Ronson has done. Do not let that terrible The Men who Stare at Goats movie fool you. The book is mind blowing and terrifying.
