Also, I'm not sure how he hasn't been shot yet. I couldn't take more than a few months of hookers, dealers, gunshots, and drama in just the Southside.

"Johnny Northside" is a fun name, it's the name of my blog, and I intend to keep using that name on the blog. It's the blogosphere. I'm allowed to have fun. For the record, I don't say "Johnny Northside" did whatever, in the third person. I use the word "I." I might say the JNS blog did this, that, the other thing...but obviously I am a separate entity from my blog and the blog does things, even while I'm sleeping. And (I may as well say it) I've figured out that my constant use of the word "Northside" on my fun, activist blog helps dilute the use of the word "Northside" in the media when it is used as shorthand for, like, an urban dystopia.
