The Lo Zone

A groovy place in cyberspace run by author Lolita Files. Come on in. Bring some Pepsi.

 
Lo Fun Fact #1
"Lolita Files" is my real name. It is not a pen name, as incredible as that may seem. There are plenty of Files family members and people who have known me for years capable of validating this. As for the "Lolita" part, my mother named me after the movie based on Nabokov's book, although she saw or read neither. To this day, she has no idea what a "Lolita" is.
Lo Fun Fact #2
I love fried chicken and fabulous shoes. If you ever want to get on my good side, send Popeye's or Mr. Chicken (my favorite spot in Cleveland) and a pair of Christian Louboutins.
Lo Fun Fact #3
Never show up unannounced or without a Pepsi (preferably Pepsi Jazz Caramel Cream). Better yet, how about not show up at all?
Lo Fun Fact #4
I hate the telephone. Don't get mad if I don't call you. I don't call anyone. Don't call me asking why I don't call. Just don't call, okay?
Lo Fun Fact #5
I love the internet!!! I love communicating through the internet!!! You can e-mail me and odds are I'll e-mail you right back (if I'm not in the middle of a major project). Makes up for my hangup about the phone, doesn't it? See, I'm not so bad after all!!!
Lo Fun Fact #6
I can't stand IMing. Please don't IM me. You will get the cold shoulder. I don't like giving people the cold shoulder, so please don't put me in that position.
Lo Fun Fact #7
I have four five six wonderful, slap-happy dogs, a bird (some kind of dove/pigeon mix), and a cat, all of whom I love to pieces. If you meet me and ask me about my dogs, bird, and cat, we'll be instant friends. If you meet me and ask me why the f*ck I have four five six dogs, a bird, and a cat, see the above fun fact for how I will respond.
Let It Snow, Let It Snow, Let It Snow!!!

Crackheads, rejoice!!! There'll be no more thousand year sentences (hopefully) for having a handful of rocks versus the considerably lesser sentences that are typically handed out for having truckloads of the powder version.

Hint:
poorer folks---read, blacks and latinos---are often the possessors of crack rock...



...whereas your cozy, comfy middle and upper-class folk---read, whites---are often the purveyors of powder.



Notice a pattern?

So get your happy dance on, crackheads and neighborhood slangers!!!

Your day has finally come!!!

    I love how you've blended the crack theme with the holidays. Yesterday was hoe, hoe, hoes and was all about a crackhead, and now you're doing it again. Very clever!

    It's about damn time. The prisons are filled with brothers who got damn near fifteen years to life because they were toting a few rocks. Meanwhile you got cats trafficking mad snow who skate their way through. This has always been bullshit, different penalties for the same amount of the same drug but in different forms.

    Oh lawd......the corners are gonna be thick with dealers now that this has happened. You know black men ain't scared to do a bid especially since it's a way to get your street cred. Now that the bids are getting cut short nobody's gonna be scared of jail.

    The courts were wrong in the way they handled this from the very beginning. It's about time there was some parity. Now let's try for fixing the rest of the (in)justice system.
