Dear Craig,
"I hope everyone remembers that this is our neighborhood. Yours - Mine - Theirs.
The elected, the unelected, those who pickup poop, those who do not. (I do both.)
Those who blog, those who don't. Those who can spell, and those that can't. (I do both)
If it weren't for the diversity and points of contention, this would be a boring place to live.
Despite what many of you think, this blog is the stuff of legend. People now come to Rogers Park to see if it this shit is really really true.
From a Diamond in the ruff, to Otis and the other cast of characters that write poems, sing songs and create the best photoshop images ever seen.
Who knew the Hell Hole would make Rogers Park a tourist destination. Come for the blight, stay for the fight.
Smoke 'um if you got 'um - cause 1/1/08, I'm callin' 911 if you light up in a public space.
Signed, Pro Gun

To my new readers - and I know there's a lot of you. I've recently passed the 2000 story mark, so there's plenty to reading to do over the holidays.
Neighborhood knowledge. It's my Christmas present to you.
Congrats on the 2000 story mark, Craig!
Your blog is on my daily must-read list.

So, like, you're the John Tesh of Rogers Park? *grin*
Craig, thanks for all you do. For the last two years, your blog is my first stop when I get home from work, and catch up on my leisure surfing.
You set the bar Craig!
