It's really hard to feel bad for guys who have so little sense as to do things like Regal is now alleged to have done.
It was Addy's comment to which I was responding. You'll note, I wasn't justifying Regal's actions. Simply stating that, every now and then, life immitates the art of cliche. People really do slip on banana peels; overused explanations really are, sometimes, the case.

I'd also like to point out that using drugs doesn't mean you're addicted. Having a beer at the bar after work doesn't make you a drunk; smoking a joint after school doesn't make you a pothead; taking whatever Regal took, the one time we know he took it, doesn't make him a junkie.
