the kid that got me into skateboarding died. at first he picked on me, then he became my bud, then we fell out of touch with one another and then he overdosed on cocaine and prescription drugs along with his girlfriend. word to the wise, if you HAVE to do drugs, do not to mix them. i think he was 27.

I'm so sorry to hear that. One of my friends lost her best friend to a herion overdose about a month ago. They found her on the floor of a gas station restroom. What a way to go.
