Way back when, I partied for a weekend on coke. I realized that if ever there was a drug that could own me, that was it. I was in an environment where it was pretty much free and always available to me (one of the few women working in a pipeline camp way north of the Artic Circle in Alaska). I swore never to touch it again.


Sounds like my mom. She tried coke once and knew that she shouldn't ever go near the stuff again because the high was so good.

Hillsboro, Missouri is 15 miles from the part of Missouri I was teaching in before I moved to Oregon last month.

That part of the country is very poor. There are shanty towns where the police don't even go, out in the country. There simply aren't enough police to patrol. The city I lived in was the county seat, and they only have funds for 2 cars to be out at a time.
