Down here in Memphis. it is somewhat unhealthy to use the word crip,
especially if there happens to be a Blood around!!!

    From what little reading I have down in the Ragged Edge, "Crip" is
now used as and "in your face" term by activist types.

    I believe Ken is right, though, it should all be in humor. Laugh at
life, now one gets out of it alive.
