Yes, of course there are poor drug addicts. There are also many, many, MANY Hollywood party people who are addicted to a metric ass-ton of things (ask me about my cousin sometime...). I give it until tomorrow's tabloid news shows before at least one "long time friend" of Mister Ledger's steps forward with a tell-all expose. And only that long because they've already taped today's episodes.
