re: Who do you know that has fallen the farthest in your lifetime?

I know of a fella who once scored four touchdowns in a high school football game. He ended up selling too-small shoes to fat, annoying women at the mall.

Uncle was a successful corporate lawyer who married a woman back in the 80s who lied about her past. He thought she was remarrying for the first time and it was the 3rd and shite like that. Got him to leave his cushy corporate job then divorced him and took all his money.

Uncle was all conference D2 football player in college, graduted summa cum laude from undergrad and from a top 20 law school. My mom said he was a "catch"

He is now easily over 270 pounds, alone and miserable and bitches about life to anyone who will listen. Can't even get his son to hang out with him because the mom talks trash.

"Falling With Style"

10 years ago I received some nominations for the Carlin Droppie

I went to one of the math and science schools. Tons of folks in my graduating class had life on a string at 18 and now have nothing to show for it. The worst case was a guy with a perfect ACT who also happened to win a quarter mil car accident settlement his freshman year of college. He is now living paycheck to paycheck as a bar doorman.

Many years ago, I worked in management for the Government. A friend of mine also in mgt. was thought by many to be gay but back then it was always kept very much low key. We suspected this was the case but he became very sick and was said to have cancer. I later ran into him at Home Depot after he quit work and he looked like a shell of the man he was. He told me that he had aids , and he died only a few days later. He was in his late 30's.

My HS class Valedictorian was an uptight bitch. However she was a very smart person and finished her masters a couple years ago in Psychological Counseling from a small college.

Last time I seen her she was still a waitress in a shitty resteraunt.

I might come off as being bitter by saying it, but I laughed at her.

I was the only one out of my class of 80-90 people that went to a well known university, actually graduated, and moved on to have some success.

I guess it is kinda sad, but you reap what you sow when you treat people like shite.

Know someone that went to one of the best public colleges in the country, did drugs, developed schizophrenia, went to jail, gained 300 lbs as a result of taking schizophrenia medication, and died in his early 30s.
