Summer daze

I blame the heat. Here now find the link to my latest column, on cyber cafes, gang bangers and how the city deal with both. Please note that in the eiting process the word "emoticons" was changed without my knowledge to "emotions," thus making the sentence senseless.

Here's the link.

Couple weeks before, I had a column on how politics are cool again for the Gen X set. (And they called us Slackers!) Check it out here.

Also, stay tuned for my exciting column this Sunday on how ugly buildings get built and why the city need a Deputy Mayor of Beauty and for a post here on my bold experiment of taking public transportation to the Valley.
