BoarSpear..
When you come out of "left Field" your pretty sharp..and wise. Gotta watch people like that. Very good posts.

So East London is such a rough town? Never knew that.
There are tons of bad places, everywhere, that you'd never think about, so I could be wrong again. For example; I always thought East Buffalo, NY was tough till I went to D.C. (what a surprise) Camden, NJ is horrible. Atlanta, GA sounds nice but outside the city is a ghost town of stripped down cars and bodegas. I once bought a car on ebay from Hartford, CT..drove out there to get it and it was at a chop-shop in one of the biggest slums I've ever seen with about 100 mexicans standing around a garage full of cars from the 60's and 70's. (Always thought CT would be a real cushy place to live).

Real poor ghetto areas are everywhere. Miami and Tampa florida are tough too. Of course you can read that all in the news; but I've never read about how tough East London is...unless of course you're talking about South Africa.

Everyone gets in fights and has a tuff time growing up, but dont think your from one of the roughest neighborhoods and had to fight to survive. I know people that had to fight to survive...they dont spend their time on computers. Most of them dont know how to even use a computer.

I think the reason you fought so much is you're trying to prove something to yourself.
