CROOKLAND

For those of you on the West Coast who have been thus far disappointed by my lack of interesting reports on the crime in my neighborhood, I have some good news: my drinking buddy and sparring partner Frank's neighborhood is a like brick-and-mortar "eBay of crack; a place where the frugal crackhead goes to hock DVD's and, if he's lucky, gets a crackerjack deal on a vial." Click on the link above and he'll tell you all about it.

P.S. — The above title was supposed to be a Spike Lee-esque twist on the name of Frank's neighborhood, Brookland, but maybe "Crackland" would have been better. Oh well. Sometimes there's no way to pull off an effective play on words unless everyone already knows what you're getting at.
