44 Years Old And Doing Crack
How many people do you know that are 44 and doing crack? Yeah, that's because there aren't many 44 year old people doing crack. Oh sure, they are doing coke and other drugs, but crack and meth, and those highly addictive, quick hit drugs are for the young. If you are doing them at 44, then you are really messed up.
I wasn't surprised Tatum O'Neal was busted for coke, but I was surprised she was busted for crack. It isn't like she has never done crack before, or heroin or a variety of other drugs. I mean she is a mother after all and needed to set a good example by extensively trying all the drugs that her children may someday come in contact with. Of course, the fact that she was doing this long before she even had kids just shows that she wanted to be a really good parent.
Most parents at 730pm on a Sunday evening are sitting on the couch with their significant other, looking at some television, wishing their kids would shut the hell up so they could enjoy the last few hours of their weekend. Most parents are not rushing around a park in New York scrambling to find the best deal on some crack. Oh, sure they might be smoking a joint or four, or coasting on that two bottle of wine at dinner buzz, but digging out the crack pipe from the junk drawer is probably not on the list.
Again, that is what makes Tatum special. I love the celebrities who share all their get clean stories as Tatum did last year on her book tour. I'm sure a statement will come out that says this was a one time slip and that she is suffering stress about something that you know she doesn't give a s**t about.
The good thing is it will allow us to drag out all the really bad father stories with Melanie Griffith. I love those stories. I would probably also do crack each and every day if I had to relive what happened in my mind each day.
