European Stars and Stripes (Newspaper) - September 20, 1991, Darmstadt, Hesse                                Ann Landers dear Ann Landers the Best reason not to get involved with drugs is that they can kill you. But if that in t Good enough think about what it s like if you get hooked and Start to Deal drugs to support your habit and end up in prison. In a a Young female who was locked up for four months with three other women in a cell that. Was built for two. I was constantly nauseated from the terrible doors that permeated the Cellblock. I had to use a filthy toilet it did no to even have a seat right out in the open where everyone could watch me. I had to dress undress and Shower in front of Creepy people who scared me to death. My entire life was regimented from the time i got up in the morning until i went to bed at night. The food was like garbage and nobody cares if you get sick. I was assigned to work in the jail laundry which was hot and miserable. I done to want to see another Iron or an ironing Board As Long As i live. I was subjected to humiliating strip searches by the guards for no reason at All. In a sure it was their idea of  actually i was Lucky my sentence was Only four months. Most drug sentences Are a lot longer. The experience was so awful that i will never have anything to do with drugs As Long As i live. I Hope every person who reads this will ask the question a could this possibly happen to me a any user . Dear Abby dear Abby the letter from Marvin h. Leaf d.d.s., who listed sonic prominent victims of lung cancer struck a very painful chord within me. Leaf mentioned Steve Mcqueen among those who had died As a result of smoking. Abby Steve Mcqueen died of a malignant pleural mesothelium a which is almost always due to Long term exposure to Asbestos and is completely unrelated to smoking. I understand that or. Mcqueen at one time worked As an automobile Brake repairman which would have exposed him to Asbestos on a daily basis. My Mother was a physician and the director of health for Alamance county . She was also a tireless crusader for Good health habits. Two years ago she died of malignant pleural mesothelium a. My Mother never smoked nor was she exposed to Asbestos and we have no idea Why she developed lung cancer. I certainly do not appreciate Leafs implication that All lung cancers Are the result of smoking and should be so publicized in the obituaries of the deceased. You will no doubt hear from Many other families who were equally offended by his misinformation and i Friday september 20, 1991 dear readers if you Are mixed up with drugs the answer to a any user s question is a resounding  it could happen to you. Dear Ann Landers you recently printed another letter about teen agers and sex. Here is some information i be never seen covered in your column. When you have sex with someone you Are in a Verv real sense having sex with everyone that person has Ever had sex with and everyone his or her past partners have had sex with. Medically speaking you Are putting yourself at risk for whatever sexually transmitted disc ease All past partners have had. Here is a progression 1 worked out assuming that All sex partners have the same history and that you have Only one partner per year. I took it from age 15 not uncommon today for the first sexual encounter through 21 at the end of your 15th year you would have had sex with one person. At the end of your 16th year three people a the one you had last year your current partner and the one your current partner had last year. At the end of your 17th year seven people. At the end of your 18th year 15 people. At the end of your 19th year 31 people. At the end of your 20th year 63 people. At the end of your 21st year 127 people. The progression just keeps building and this is based on a rather conservative Assumption. If you stay a Virgin and marry a Virgin the possibility of contracting a sexually transmitted illness is virtually Zero. Someone who cares in Georgia dear Georgia i agree with everything you have written. C creators Syndicate am sure that As usual you will set the record straight. Jill b. Koury . Dear or.
