The other day while reading a post on Amy's blog, I happened upon the word "cheese", mentioned as a drug. Like Jenny, I thought it a marvelous joke to lighten the mood.
This morning while listening to KERA, the local NPR affiliate, I heard a story about a drug being offered to DISD students. The drug was a mixture of heroin and Tylenol PM. This mixture is called cheese.
I'm not laughing any more. In my dealing with youth, I cannot recall ever having come across this term. Usually, we talk about alcohol, or pot. Suddenly, I feel so uninformed.

If I was a responsible blogger I would have linked out to one of the news articles on cheese in my original post. I explained it to Jenny in a separate email, maybe I should have posted an update???
Ya - super scary isn't it? There's been like 19 or 21 deaths already this year. Uggg, imagine what will be popular when yours are teens???
Argh. I hate thinking about that.
I could so see you trying to disarm the situation with a little humor.
