last time i was in dallas
i didn't really get to see dallas.
the weather was gray and rainy.
it was cold outside.
and for the most part,
i stayed in grand prairie.
none of these things is necessarily bad,
but it does mean that i didn't get to see
all of the places that made rcg who he is today.
i didn't see his elementary school,
or his mother's hair salon,
or his uncle's restaurant.
i didn't see the famous
and "dangerous"
oak cliff.
i didn't see the places where he hung out
or the places where he got into trouble.
but this trip,
i did.
and it was sunny and warm.
hallelujah.
i know we are sometimes
a product of our environment,
so this is just a sample of rcg.
the 1980s and 1990s version.
