I enjoyed going to her parties for she had friends that would come in from the caves along the MO/AR border and who grew pot inside the caves and so forth. Very interesting and very revealing to a kid who was just starting out in life (me, in college). I really enjoyed her gatherings and met the most interesting people. A experience in life I'll never regret.
One time, someone was caught spiking the punch bowl...and it wasn't just alcohol, it was something else (we never could figure out what it was, probably a preliminary date rape drug or something of the kind) and
they were caught. We ran him out of the party, especially after a couple of people started 'acting' up and tempers were very hot. I'm surprised that they didn't lynch (I hate this word) the guy after he was caught spiking the punch bowl. Probably thought it would be a good ol' boys trick. Pathetic.
This is why I never trust an open punch bowl. Too easy of a target. And there are scumbags who'll take advantage of it. True scumbags who'll dump crap into something and not realize (or they may, pathetically taking advantage of someone) the impact that the unknown drugs could have on people.
