You should see the looks on people's faces when I tell them I live on Jane street... it's akin to saying Kabul.

So if Jane (north of say... Eglinton) is Kabul, that must make Parkdale Thailand thanks to all the newfound police presence cleaning out the old monarchy (the crackies).

P.s. don't eat that tomato dude... no really, don't.

the tomato is housing a family of badgers.

Yeah I totally see dead people and crackheads and prostitutes all the time where I work.. and people are all like shocked and appalled that I work in that neighborhood.

I like to see myself as a person who likes to be close to the real action. hee hee.

I knew Chris White before he was a 'crackie'. He was smart and funny and kind. He wasn't just some guy who got shot so you could write a pretentious, trying to be witty blog about. He was on drugs because of things that happened in his life and it's not an excuse, it's a reality. Don't shrug this off. The answer to this is education and rehabilitation. Not being an asshole to get a laugh. What have you done to help??

well i certainly wasnt a part of his life as you g, but if I was i probably wouldnt of let him get to the point where he was putting himself in a situation to be shot in the backroom of a notable shack.

regardless of lifes happenings the only barrier, in my eyes, between being in mr. white's position and being on the road to recovery is in the people who know him around him.

while we cant all hold hands around the world we can hold the hands of those in our world.

so while googling chris white's name post mordem may bring solace to you, i might of tried keywords like rehabilitation clinic, counselling, social addiction programs, prior to his death to involve yourself so emotionally in his situation.

so g. where we you?

How about a new post you unproductive bastard?

I'm tired of checking back here all the time just to see that you are indeed still sleeping with the fan on... most likely in addition to a nightlight and some footie-pajamas.
