Thoughts on a beautiful spring evening...

As did we....well, some of us.

The thing I find is that the stuff we played with (weed, alcohol) didn't have
the effects like the stuff the kids are killing themselves with now.
I am astounded with what some of our young people are willing to ingest,
inject, inhale without any thought about the potential consequence.
I saw a lovely young girl 'bout 19 years old, community college student, good
girl looking forward to journalism school, inhaled something at a picnic,
fell down, convulsed for a little while, arrived in the ER a little blue,
spent some time in ICU, now will wear a diaper the rest of her life in
nursing facilities, half her brain turned to goo.

It breaks my heart.

I mean, in my time we were a little stupid and drunk or got the munchies for
a while but a few milligrams didn't melt our noodles.
