Art -> Life

Snoop's lawyer: she's innocent but pled guilty to get on with her life. Hmm, where have I heard that before? (.. & I love how if you google "republican bathroom" he pops up immediately)

Shootings & stabbings over the weekend, and a man died at Central Booking (coincidentally, it sounds like)

and don't miss the poetic stylings of Sen. Catherine Pugh. ("Some think politicians . . . / Are much like magicians . . . " Frank Conaway's rap is not all that bad, by comparison-- full of piquant disses! ("Frank Conaway, how you going to get a fair chance in the race when all you gonna worry about is where his daughter stay .... don't take advice from the gift-card bandit, dammit .... Catherine Pugh, that ain't the only thing I smell in the room ...")

There was a very moving, though heartbreaking, full page ad in the Baltimore Sun yesterday from the friends and family of Stephen Pitcairn, thanking the Baltimore community for its support in this painful event in their lives.
The page thanks a variety of folks from the Baltimore area, including people in hotels and hallways who offered support. They offered a special thanks to Reggie, the Charles Village man who held Stephen while he died because "no one should have to die alone".
