        What was your first reaction to seeing this person strait (or was 
e)?
        I have said it many of times to both the people who had used here
        as well as the ones sent here from out of state to a halfway house,
        "don't be supprised one day when your best using buddies show up
        after a while".  Eventually, if we don't die first we all get         
strait.... either by choice or by force.

        The first thing I said to this guy was that I don't care to think 
much         or talk about that part of the past.  I just want to know what 
happened
        since I went to jail and got straight.  Hopefully that is all that
        we will do.
