Walking at night in skid row with General Jeff

_DSC5941

Hey , General Jeff, that is the Downtown Skyline seen from San Julian Street between 6th Street and 7th Street in the heart of skid row. Have we lost our minds, cause we are walking down San Julian Street in the early morning hours? Isn't that the spot that Sterling said he would build something for the homeless?

Who!!! that is one of OG's trash cans . The Skid Row Brigade. It says something on the side of it . What does it say? Oh, yeah!!! One of Manuel Compito's favorite sayings. SKID ROW is holy Ground!!!

What does that trash can say? Pride in skid row!!!??. General Jeff, the social service providers and the ACLU said that we liked living in our own filth. But why is the neighborhood on the kick of trying to keep it clean? Could the trash on the streets just be a way of putting the blame on homelessness on the homeless by being able to say that it is all their fault because they throw trash everywhere. But without trash cans how can we throw the trash into the proper place?

I see, this is where people steal the wiring for the lights. General Jeff, I guess it is hard to keep the lights on when people keep stealing the wiring.

General Jeff , do you see that!!! It is shameful that people are still sleeping on the street right next to SRO Housing Corporation's flag ship hotel-the Yankee hotel- I thought the point of building this type of housing was to get people off of the streets. By the way, where are the LAHSA outreach worker's? Oh , I forgot, they only work from 8 am until 5 pm.

General Jeff, who is writing on this wall? OH my god!!! Are those taggers? My goodness.. how can people deface property like that in skid row?
_DSC5969
My bad!!!! Sorry, General Jeff, that was you that wrote on the wall. I wonder if it is like in the story of the fall of babylon. When the hand wrote on the wall? Oh that is your name? OK, so it wasn't taggers. This was the wall that Operation Face Lift wrote all over to tell the world we want a clean neighborhood like everywhere else.

Is that like the declaration of independence from the residents in skid row? What does it say there on the left General Jeff? We want clean , safe, and healthy streets? Wow!!! Totally the opposite of what some of the social service providers are saying we want.

For my dear friend Richard Feagin - Sifu Richard Feagin

For some odd reason when I heard news that my childhood friend was killed in a car accident I thought of another friend we used to get together with and sing this song and others. We were all a bunch of christian rednecks. Didn't drink , smoke, use drugs and searching for wives and not whoring around. Richard Feagin introduced me to the world of anime. HE went on to beome a master karate instructor. Who would have thought. He was a close friend that helped me work out lot's of questions I had in puberty. Girls and all that. Kept us out of trouble to be two guys who were waiting for the right girl to marry. HE leaves two young children and a beautiful wife. None of the renditions of this song on the internet even come close to the ozark type of twang we used. I can still sing like that. Raised on that Southern Baptist Gospel Music. I will give alist of my favorites. We used the banjo a lot. This is not my home On the wings of a dove- this is the version I remember growing u...

Los Angeles Mayoral Candidate Gordon Turner visits skid row on election day

Gordon Turner does make it to skid row on this election day. He was at San Julian Park passing out flyers and speaking to voters. Some voters got excited and asked for handfuls of flyers to begin to pass out to voters on the Nickel.  Someone had passed out flyers last night , apparently, because there were already flyers all over skid row when he arrived.

To those who think that Marijuana has never killed anyone

Update: once again marijuana used by sexual deviants to assault young teenagers who skipped school. When officers arrived, the men were gone, he said. "It looks like this house was not lived in," Taylor said. The girls told police they met the men at the Paseo Colorado mall on Colorado Boulevard, where they were playing hooky from school, he said. The men then invited the girls to the Idaho Street house, he added. Once there, the men brought out alcohol and marijuana and gave it to the 14-year-olds before sexually assaulting them, he said. Marijuana is addictive and it is also plain fun for many young people . John Wayne Gacy used MArijuana to lure young men into his home Jeffrey Dahmer used marijuana to lure young men he killed into his home Jaime Green, who lives at the Southern Hotel operated by SRO HOusing Corporation, uses his medical marijauna to lure young males to his room to molest them...and he is a registered sex offender that has to register e...
