HA! No, that's A MySpace page, not THE MySpace page. That's for one dude in Spartanburg who likes Jamie Foxx and Family Guy. His interests: "basketball and football, and like to chill and get fucked up".

Somehow I doubt he speaks for the BGF.

...unless we're expected to believe that The Black Guerilla Family is a proud parent and a capricorn.

Well, the BGF does get called the Black Gorilla Family a lot. It seems to be a pretty common mistake. But the BGF prison gang is actually supposed to be Guerilla.

Okay, well I'll be in Barclay on Saturday. Perhaps I will ask a few residents and we can get to the bottom of this spelling conundrum.
