Winning the war on drugs at school

The Sac Bee again shocks us all with the revelation that some teenagers are ocassionally “high,” in a feature piece on training school workers to recognize stoners, drunks, pill-poppers, and other losers among their students.

If “Jeannine” shows up at the high school dance with dilated pupils and can’t stop rubbing the frills of her blouse, Steve McPherson will be ready.

Unfortunately, what they don’t tell you is if “Jeannine” is wearing a “blouse” to her dance, you’ve time-traveled back to the 50’s, and Ecstasy doesn’t exist.

CoolDMZ Editorial Note: Don’t do drugs.

Speaking of the Bee, is it just me or is Backseat Driver a really good newspaper column? It says something about Sacramento that you can focus on transportation and yet somehow touch on all aspects of Sac life. Kudos to Tony Bizjak.

  1. This is the best story the Bee has done in years! The content, the quotes, everything is brilliant!
    I cut it out this morning and brought it to work with me. It is now taped up on my office wall and has generated numerous chuckles from my co-workers.

  2. I’ve been training to detect drug use in others for years. My research is nearly complete. I will be offering classes (on a contract basis with the State) starting next week. Course materials extra. Dude- my fingers look SO COOL!
