Blow me!
I did watch some of the Olympics this weekend. My love for curling cannot be denied since I bypassed my normal Sportscenter morning viewing to watch the US women lose to Norway this morning on USA. I watched a ton of the Winter Olympics in 2002. Probably because I was in college and there wasn’t much competition for the CNBC broadcast at 2am. The one thing that gets me is NBC interviewing all of the foreign winners. Most of these people speak broken English at best and these interviewers are asking really complex questions. It makes me laugh.
On to the main reason I’m posting today. I was scanning my hometown newspaper last week and came across an interesting article. Apparently heroin is becoming a bigger and bigger problem in not only the bustling metropolis of New Philadelphia but also Tuscarawas County. Anyways, seven area residents were busted in Pittsburgh in a big sting. All of them were pretty much charged with possession and intent to deliver (distribute). Which means that there was probably quite a bit of smack in the apartment.
Now on to why this concerns me. They listed the arrested individuals and not surprisingly I know 2 of them and another who was mentioned at the bottom of the article. Trevor Hawkins graduated a year ahead of me and was always a prick. Aric Campbell graduated a year after me and was always a burnout. I was honestly a little surprised to see him on the list. He never seemed to have the ambition to be involved in something like this. I always figured him as a user, not a dealer. Maybe he was just a mule. And then Steve Schwartz. This kid was a great athlete growing up. And then decided he liked drugs (but then who doesn’t) and pretty much fell off of the face of the earth. I remember his dad getting thrown in jail for embezzlement when I was in high school. He owned a manufactured homes empire that Steve would have fallen into. Maybe that’s what put him over the edge.
I really think that this means that everyone I’ve ever thought would get busted in a drug ring will. When I read the article I was not surprised at all. Good for them. I bet the prisons in western PA are lots of fun. Aric and Trevor looked like smack addicts in high school so I bet they’ll have lots of fun with Bubba and Tyrone. You got a purty mouth, boy.

Check out some of the links at the bottom of the article. Also, do you ever read Everday Should Be Saturday? You should.
That Creed story is awesome. You can't make something like that up. Who knew that they had fans? And thanks for the EDSBS heads up. That will be put into the rotation.
Anytime brother, anytime.
