Celebrate a Life!

Another one of those calls you do not wish to take.
A dear friend, toiling for years in the Indie Rock scene, finally gets notice in the Industry press that results in signing a BIG deal. Oh sure, it is about ten years later that it could have, should have been, but still... it is a very good deal.

"Get off your Island and come home to celebrate!"

"I can celebrate here! I will send you some sand-dollars."

They went out on the Town without me. A little Scotch here, a little smoke there.
And then, somehow, in the early morning hours, a stupid decision took my friends life.

Heroin hates you.
