Hate to say it, but SIU won't help with his drinking problem, unless you are talking about SIU-Edwardsville and not Carbondale

i totally agree.i'm a bit worried about attending iowa next year (went from #9 to #4) last year party school wise. while it isn't an ideal learning environment, i'm sure i'll survive just fine in my time spent there.

No matter what school you go to there's plenty of room to fuck up or party too much, what you want to do with college is entirely up to you.

hell i've got a friend who landed a 32 on his ACT but never managed to go to college due to alcoholism. thankfully he was accepted into southern illinois university this year. unfortunately the drinking has failed to cease.

Already at this point in his life, your friend is definitely an alcoholic and needs help badly. He'll be lucky to finish college (my bet is he won't), let alone get a job that will support him. Intervention is a tough option. Usually the better you are as a friend, the harder it is to approach him. Get someone else or a group to do it. He'll be better for it and you'll have a settled conscience. My wife and I have seen way to many "good" friends die tragically because of alcohol.

On a scale of 1-10 with respect to this post, I'm probably a 0. I had the occasional drink in college. A friend (girl) bought me 3 drinks when I turned 21. I've never tried a cigarette even though I enjoy a nice cigar once in a while on a balmy night with a scotch. I've never tried any type of drug, except for an Advil or Motrin.

They're all fun, haven't tried one that I didn't or couldn't have a great time with/on.

I've done pretty much every mainstream drug there is save ketamine. 16-18 were my cocaine and ecstasy days. 18-20 I was doing a lot of hallucinogens, LSD and various phenethylamines like 2c-i and 2c-e mainly. 20 I was introduced to heroin and I've been doing that on and off since. Heroin or dilaudid would be my drug of choice, but I still very much enjoy various hallucinogens, particularly the phenethylamines previously mentioned.

Banning weed is really no different than alcohol prohibition (except worse) - and no one can describe that experience in other terms than an abject failure and a waste of resources.

Maybe its a age thing , but most the people I encounter that smoke weed. Are some of the most idiotic people. It is like social conditioning for the youth. Smoke weed , dedicate your free time and encouraging others its great. If you really want to go all out listen to reggae, express how everything is so much better. Point out responsible people on weed etc. I'm not saying it shouldn't be illegal. I just wish society would move on to better things. I for one can say Cocaine is a much more fun.

*edited in* Furthermore, it reminds me of gay people. Being gay is one thing , but making your primary focus on being gay is another. Responsible homos don't have to say they are gay all the time , let alone act like a feministic woman. One could say this could be the same with weed. Responsible on weed? Is it possible?
