I worked at a place called Sundown Ranch in Canton, TX that was absolutely beautiful! They had an oldfashioned school house and horses and cows. A pond they could fish out of that had a pair of black swans and turtles popping their heads out. They had a vegetable garden. Every Friday we would have this huge barbeque cranked up cooking brisket. And we'd play volleyball in between raps. They even had a couple of llamas. Sometimes I would take the kids on this long hike to this hill that made you feel like you were on top of the world.I imagined this sort of scenario when my parents told me that they were going to "take me to VA where I would stay with some people who could talk to me..." or something like that. At that point, I wasn't doing much in the way of drugs. I had left home sometime in September because I was tired of the school I was in, but mainly because my parents were interfering with me getting laid in one way or another. I came back a month later. I ended up in straight in early Nov of 82.
You will get to go stay in Dallas with a nice family...and be with other kids who understand what you are going through...

Anyways, about Kim... I searched for her for about a year. I called the post office, the news paper and her juvenile probation office. I finally made contact w/ her grandmother who told me about the accident. I spoke w/ Kim a couple of times, she was so dear to me. Shortly after out last conversation she was imprisoned. She really had no business going back to her folks. Foster care would have been much better. Anyways, she will always have a special place in my heart as will Ellen Savage... and yourself. "

A lot of postings about Kim after Valorie and I started talking about her. I don't have much to add, other than Antigen has a good point: I didn't try to contact her. Much as I loved her, I figured the news was bad, and frankly - I closed the door on Straight as soon as I graduated. This board is the first time I've re-connected in any way with Straight, the people i was there with, and what went on there. And it's not easy, so I'm taking it slow.

If I remember correctly your dad was a big greasy disgusting fuck, and you werent to easy on the eyes yourself, and what I am wandering is this....did you ever even do drugs??? I cant honestly remember anything coming out of your mouth except that whiney nasal arrogant rant that you did so often and so well, to the glee of all of the fat cat executives and the rest of your pathetic staff...staff, what a crock of shit ceasar, I went through the training for that shit "Paraprofessional Counseler" that is what they called us but you were particularly ignorant if I remembered correctly. Well enough about Me, lets hear how your life is "busting Druggies"and I sure hope that is just one of your ignorant jokes that you thought might help you fucking slide by all of the people who you abused
What the fuck man did you think that ppl would not remember? you personaly degraded me not only on the hardest day, my first day but many times after that, I was a fifth phase trainee a nd you were a junior staff member and you once asked my " what the fuck are you waiting for" as you sneered down at me, dude you must have hated yourself. I remember one time you wanted to rip this kid a new asshole beacause he was new and having a hard time letting go and wouldnt cut his hair, I was on fifth phase at the time you called on me(suspecting that I would rip this poor guy" and I calmy spoke to him as the group was turning into a seething mob ready to tear this poor schlubs head off for your enjoyment, and I startied calmy explaing to him that it was going to get easier and that we all had to do it when we were new and not to worry everthing was gonna be ok if he would just go with the"WHO HERE'S GOT SOMETHING TO SAY TO THIS SORRY DRUGGIE" is how you cut me off, how fucked up man, anyway if he could have this kid probably would have kicked your lily white ass all over the parking lot.
O.K. I sure do feel beter, so anyway hows your life man? I heare your a cop, so hows that going man are you keeping the streets safe from druggies and stuff? please let me(us) know what your all about.

I know the people you are asking about but have not kept in touch with anybody. I went on trainee for three months. They said i broke my 6 months. I felt something was up. I said i have to use the restroom and I never returned to the building. The few that began Dallas hung out for awhile. We all began to fall. Some had during their program.
I will try to find out more. If anyone is
interested.
They lied i'm still alive.
