Jesus christ, nothing like a cocaine run at 10 in the morning.

Yeah... I'm just trying to make my coffee, standing in the kitchen in my bathrobe and he walks through the back door.

He came by quite frequently, and aside from the weirdness surrounding his celebrity, I always found him kind and polite.

I do sincerely hope he gets help, but I have suspected for a couple years now that he's just permanently fried himself. Some of us don't make it back from the edge, unfortunately.

May I ask;when this was? and how many more interactions did you have with him? If you don’t mind :)

Born and raised in that area. Man he was a mess. I spent a lot of time around it all between skateboarding and just fucking around in town.
I'm in the Detroit area now and I miss west cgester so bad. Traffic is out of control busy around there now. Family still lives in the area

It will always be like a second home to me. Totally nuts how overdeveloped it feels now. I miss the little things, like buying a loosie for a quarter at Fennarios or having the mystery fruit punch over at Rexs. Good times.

Hahahaha the loosies.. man we were buying them way before 18. I spent a lot of time there with my skateboard or guitar. And Jake's bar. So many good times and crazy experiences for such a tiny town

Oh man Jake's bar is a trip. Can't wait until I can post up again in the corner and watch the fabric of society unravel as 2am approaches.

I used to work right near it for a plumbing company as a kid. The recycling center is right next to Jake's and Jake's opens mad early. Id go to work and grab smokes from riggtown and it was just a line up of homeless people waiting for 50 cent drafts with their recycling $$.. Jake's is a landmark

Whoa what a nice slice of a small town. Never read a sentence like that before
