The good thing about living in a crazy neighborhood . . .

. . . is that you've always got plenty of material.

We have this neighbor who's had substance abuse issues for decades. It's sad because at heart I think he's a decent guy. At this point he looks like he hasn't had a haircut or a shower for months, possibly years. Which is why we were all a leetle surprised when he stopped Quinton on the sidewalk recently and said, "Tell your mom to buy you some acne cream."

  1. Just think of the columns and books you could write if you lived next to me. CRAZY! Crazy, I tell you.

    Maybe crack dude was hallucinating. Q was probably nice to him. I would've had to share a few remarks.
