Just one thing I want to set straight - Cap Hill was historically a business district (mostly car stuff). Then it was a ghetto, with poverty, crime, rampant drug use. Then it became a gay / artist / hipster area, then it became the brogrammer paradise it is today. The hipsters complaining about getting kicked out are are conveniently forgetting they kicked out the broke addicts to move in. Hipsters aren't victims, they are another step in the gentrification chain.

We communicated with one another last night and he said it has more to do with him and stuff going on in his life than Hubski or anyone here.

He knows that he is always welcome back. He may come back after a hiatus.

I hope so.

Me too. We exchanged CDs. That's almost like blood brothers.

Fair, I muddied too much of that together. And now we're going to kick everyone out of the Central District whooooooooo.
