I sorta just clipped this for personal use if I ever get welding goggles and an infrared filter. Check out the site though, it has officially become one of my favorite places in the internet. There are ton of tricks and stuff.

Modify your perceptions with physics rather than psychopharmacology:
put an infrared filter in some welding goggles, then wear them outdoors 
on a bright, sunny day. (Choose a filter that is in the near-IR, so a bit 
of light is visible still.  Or try theatrical gels, congo blue combined with 
primary red, several of each.)  The world will become EXTREMELY BIZARRE.  
Wait a
couple of minutes until your eyes grow accustomed to the darkness.  Then
the bright pink clouds drift in the dark sky above the frosty white trees.  
The world is dusk, yet the
sun still shines.  Car tail-lights blaze brightly.  The houses and roads
are
dark.  But the grass!  The trees!  They are frosty blazing red, like snow
which has been sprayed with cherry Kool-aid powder.  Everyone's clothes
are altered.  Blue-jeans are almost white.  Some black clothing turns 
light grey.  The artwork of T-shirts is
almost invisible, and everyone's hair is grey.  (New: see the
