Default Best choice I\'ve ever made.

Was to watch College Football.

There have been a couple great threads lately talking about drinking and friends we used to know.
It was New Years Ece 1995. I was 20 years old and spent the last two years of my life drinking 3-4 nights a week and partying my way through college.
I was home for Christmas break and had been hanging out with some super cool (so I thought) guys.
I had never been into drugs despite drinking alot. On New Years Eve I got talking to Gary. Saying what a great setup he had with his apartment and girls stopping by all the time.
If you hadn't guest he was heavy into drugs and sold them to many of his friends. I didn't consider him a drug dealer at the time just a cool guy I had met through friends.
Now I had known of Gary for a few years but hadn't really met him until 2-3 weeks prior. He knew who I was and for some reason trusted me.
He said if I wanted to get in on his action he needed a roomate. For a kid 20 years old this was gold. Party every night, drinking and girls.
Here's where it gets interesting-He said he was meeting some people the next day (to buy Hash) and I could buy some and he would show me how to cut it up and sell the stuff if I gave him a cut.
He talked like it was easy money and I'd only be selling to friends and blah blah.
The plan was for me to pick Gary up at 4pm (New Years Day) the next day.
I got to my parents at 8am still drunk and was going to crash for while.
I get up around 2pm and head downstairs. My Dad is watching football and asks me if I want to watch it with him. I said no I have togo.
I get in my car and just sit there. Suddenly it hits me what I am doing and how this choice is going to affect the rest of my life. The choice to get out of the car and watch football with my father changed my life.
I finished school have a great job, house and wonderful wife. All of this wouldn't have happened if I had made a different choice.
I never talked to Gary again. I couple years ago I'm driving Gary walking so I go to stop to see what he has been upto for the last 10 years. Then I heard my father asking me to watch the football game and keep driving.

Nice story, but I'd really like to know what Gary is up to.

That's kind of what I was hoping for. I mean we know that he's alive and by the looks of it out getting some exercise, which is important.
