This past Saturday in the middle of the night I was woken up by voices outside my house. I figure it’s just high school guys, maybe junior high, out toilet papering a house or ringing doorbells. I got dressed, went down and scouted around but they were long gone by the time I got there. The next day I’m mowing the lawn, and low and behold, I find where they’d stashed an empty water bottle that had contained some sort of smelly liquid (cleaning fluid maybe?) and an empty Doritos bag. So I figure, apparently some of the neighborhood kids are sniffing stuff to get high.
I guess this has been happening forever. I knew people in hs who did this sh#t. But it makes me wonder whether it is getting more common among teenagers? That is, sniffing lighter fluid, or gasoline, or cleaning fluid? I can't claim total innocence back in hs. I may have smoke a little dope now and then. But I never sniffed anything. I can’t help but think that sniffing stuff like that is not good for the ole IQ. :lol:
