Yes Dan, its having FUN, alright. At earlier ages i had a lot of fun, myself. Then, if your survive that fun, its time to become a responsible adult. Fun is something you have after youve gone through your work day, paid all your bills, kissed your kids bruises, and fed everybody. Drug and booze fun is for people that really dont have anything else to do with their lives. If they have a full, responsible, life, then their fun is done through different means for different reasons. Most of drugs and booze help a person become self-absorbed. They are too busy being stoned to give a crap about anything or anybody else. Their fun is theirs alone, most of my druggie friends were friends as long as i smoked pot, then once i stopped they didnt have anything to do with me. Im still friends with a few of my old stoner friends, but most of us dont do drugs anymore. Weve grown out of it, and now were real friends, the kind that dont have a specific reason for being friends, were friends for friends sake...
