Before I get on with this let me just say that if you don't get the titular reference, you haven't watched UPN30 in the Memphis area over the last 10 years.

This past Friday the Commercial Appeal saw fit to print a business section cover story about our neighborhood, The Edge, and our plan to deal with all the graffitti that goes on around here. It's actually gotten pretty vile around here - initials and half-ass logos, be it for gangs or just graf crews, covers not only the empty buildings, but storefronts, apartments, hotels, even the Junior Achievement and YMCA. My landlord came before the neighborhood association last month with a plan to eradicate all the garbage and also involve some of this local talent that is going to waste while annoying the shit out of us.
