Which pastime is more dangerous? Hitchhiking or huffing?
Sniffing glue.
Wasn’t she also Katherine Heigel’s step-daughter in the Love comes Softly series.?
I feel badly but save real sympathy for those who don’t play such foolish games.
You beat me to it. That’s the classic pic to post when this issue comes up.
I’m glad I looked before posting.
Pity.
I worked with her on a small independent movie back in 2010. She was both very talented and a diligent professional. However, her personal life seemed to be quite chaotic, with even more drama than the movie we were making.
I know that the cast and crew were all quite shocked and saddened by her death.
I was 20 years old and had no fears of hitching rides.
I was rather horrified on seeing the inhalation of volatiles. Seeing the solids that were collecting on the paper was disturbing also.
I don’t know...never seen “Love Comes Softly.”
I thank the Almighty that you survived. What was the driver doing, while the others were huffing?
You’re right. She played an excellent role as Missie Davis. Great actress
The driver was operating the vehicle safely as though nothing was happening in the back seat.
” Down on the floor with the valve open 02 would be displaced.”
That precise event happened to an acquaintance a few years ago here—he never woke up.
Rest in peace.
I’m weird in that I actually like the smell of some of the things dumb asses use to get high. I like the smell of gasoline too.
No, I am not a huffer and have never used anything to get high.
Funny thing is smells like bananas, most melons and canned spinach all make me sick enough that I can and have actually thrown up just from smelling them. I used to like bananas when I was younger so I don’t know what went wrong.
Your comment reminds me of the joke about “the monkey who understands English.”
