Good luck with that

This column in the Minnesota Daily, "Good luck with that,"
was one of my most creative and heartfelt. This picture shows the
house which was mentioned in the
column at 2631 Penn Ave. N.

All the same, it didn't generate the response and controversy
of my other column, "Don't all stampede at once." One reason
might be because critics didn't have a lot of wiggle room when
it came to somebody highlighting North Side issues. In
between "stampede" and "good luck" came the stabbing
of a 70-year-old woman in her home and the 4-year-old
child who was beaten to death.

All the same, there was one printed response, which made
no substantive points but simply engaged in name-calling.
