Ole FCP happened to drive through the sprawling metropolis of Albany, LA this PM and noticed a LOT of “meth faces” wandering around the streets. Spent about 10 minutes around the Hwy 190 Exxon and saw at least a half dozen youngish females with the characteristic sunken mouths and scars.

Thought the meth epidemic had died down nationally, so is Albany behind the times, or is it getting worse out there?

Not that anyone would want pics, this is the kind of thing that was on display. IWNHI, except maybe with a car.

Those pictures make me so sad.

Human faces and lives ruined by synthetic chemical addictions.

Pretty telling of your town if it's too poor to afford a f*cking Sonic

You’ve got a pretty decent drive in out on the west side of town, though. Had some good burgers there the last time I was through there at lunchtime.

used to be Erdeys. Called The Sandwich Shop now. Not as good as it used to be, but it's still not bad

Wasn't there a drive-in that used to be a hangout there?

I haven't been through Albany in ages as I don't do meth.

I once had a life to where my best friends, who I grew up with were my bandmates and basically brothers.

Every single one is either in prison now or dead and it's always involving methamphetamine. No one wanted to listen to me or care enough.

Wish I had people I could talk to about the old days. But it would have to be visiting to people who dont remember, or to gravestones. And I've done both.

Erdeys
Yeah, that was it. Forgot about the name change. Didn’t Erdeys move down the street or something?

The place out on the west side still had a line outside when I passed there this evening. Guess the dining room may have been closed, but it was still a parking lot full of cars.

no. Erdeys is where it always has been. They have a newer one not far from it but it might be closed now. Perfect hang out for you.

They cater to old telephone farts like me or something? Hell, I’m always on the lookout for a good burger. About the only part of my job that doesn’t suck is scouting eating joints across SE LA. Well, that and climbing up a pole and enjoying the solitude/view.

I actually meant perfect hang out for me.

Also, erdeys burgers are awful.
Only item worth a shite are club sandwich, roast beef poboy, and chili hot dogs.
