    there's such a fine line, b/t an accidental death related to Alcohol, mixed with Cocaine.......

    I've never been one to buy into "it was an accident", mere use of Cocaine is no accident, its a choice, and on top of Alcohol, Hansen was begging for trouble, and he got it.......

    ...same here...I've never bought into the idea that people who die of drug abuse as being a "sickness"... IMO, it's more of a "weakness".

    At age Twenty most probably to believe themselves ten feet tall, bullet proof, and damn near immortal. When real life diminishes those qualities by the late 20's early 30's those who can face up will survive and do well.
