Apparently a man my aunt knows once ate too much corn and drank too much beer. The corn began to ferment in the beer in his stomach and the gas produced gave him hallucinations. He had to have his stomach pumped.

Upon returning at about 8:30pm, I still felt no effects and decided the dose had been insufficient. I shaved my second tablespoonful of fresh nutmeg again into skim milk with sugar and drank this while watching a movie. I also ate a substantial supper of spagettios, pumpernickel bread and kippers, and continued drinking water.

I enjoyed the movie ("Homegrown," about a group of young amateur marijuana farmers). The nutmeg did not produce any psychological effects. At some point I felt mild heat around my extremities. This was augmented about an hour later by the familiar feeling (to marijuana users) of cottonmouth. I kept a large glass of water nearby and continuously drank water throughout the entire evening to counter the cottonmouth and prevent dehydration.
