     Man, this guy Cal's got a chip on his shoulder the size of a 
     Third-World debtor nation.  You'd have to slice up his attitude with a 
     blow torch or something.  Who died and made him so legit?  He's the 
     kind of reformed junkie, or even casual drug user, I tend to think is 
     more dangerous when he/she is sober.  In order to convince themselves 
     of their own sobriety, they keep rubbing your nose in their shrill, 
     sordid morality tales, only so THEY don't lapse back into their 
     failure to use in moderation.  By making it EVERYONE'S problem, he 
     washes his hands of the responsibility of governing his own actions 
     and keeping himself clean.
