Scott G

Scottie... I went to school with this really sultry babe named Marta. And we ran in the same circles... which means we were usually at the same parties... it wasn't anything serious... more like we were close acquaintances through a mutual friend, Caroline (who I'm in touch with to this day). So, one day, Marta is looking around for something to smoke... (it wasn't like I was seriously into it yet but I was definitely putting my scene together) and I happened to have a few really high-quality Thai doobies to share with her... and somehow, she told her brother about it (Joey R who is also on this list) and her brother was very much into dealing. He had a partner (enter Scottie) and it didn't take long before they were asking me to get them stuff.

Joey was a story unto himself... He wound up turning to real junk and was dealing pot to pay for it. I remember one time he fell asleep on the subway and lost a bagful of cash. A few years later, he cleaned up his act, got a job driving a truck and managed to hit an overpass crossing Central Park in New York City with a truck filled with a few tons of pistachios... Crunch!!

Anyway, back to Scottie... He was a kind, gentle kid who was totally honest and wound up moving to Costa Rica to open a tourist spot. I'm wanting to believe he's still there and living the life he dreamed of.

Update:  Caroline RIP...
