This is your face on drugs - Before and After Meth Addicts

If this isn't impetus enough to stay away from drugs, check out this book I saw recently at Pages, "A Time Before Crack" by Jamel Shabazz - From the abstract:

"Once upon a time before crack, inner city communities were blighted by poverty and unemployment—but not by the drug wars that tore families apart, destroying lives with needless violence and mindless addiction. Once upon a time before crack, pride and style were as inseparable as a beatbox and mixtape, or as a pair of shoes and matching purse. Once upon a time before crack, Jamel Shabazz was on the scene, working the streets of New York City, capturing the faces and places of an era that have long since disappeared."

Amy Winehouse

I've been a fan of Amy Winehouse since her first album and love her still. But I hate to watch what is happening to her. There have been reports that she is losing herself to drugs. Others speculate that the young and naive Winehouse is heavily influenced by her new husband, and rumoured drug dealer, Blake Fielder-Civil.
