I'm fortunate in that none of my friends ended up in the drug scene as far as I know. Of course, I've lost touch with all but one or two of them. Back in the 90's, I ran into the little sister of a guy I'd known in high school. We were both in grad school at the time although I was ten years older than most other students. I think most of them were under the impression that I was from out west or somewhere other than Tennessee. I was talking to this girl and asked her about a guy I remember who had her same last name. She got the strangest look on her face and said, "That's my brother." She was amazed when she learned that I had run around with her brother. He and I exchanged a couple of e-mails, but I ended up losing touch again.
