Don't mess with this quy lol

I felt bad for these ponies and goats. I know the kids love it, but it kind of looks sad.I written about the Don Hotel before it used to be a very popular hotel back in the 1930's. Now it is a senior apt building. I also got V.I.P access...





Yes the best view in town!

Overall it brought back many memories of going to the carnival as a kid and teen. It was always fun as a kid to get on all the cool rides, but as a teen everybody went to see who was cute!. It was the cool place to be on a summer weekend no doubt.

Life down a tragic road

I remember watching this back in the day. I always thought it was a truly sad story about a few kids who got involved deeply with a gangs at a young age. Chuckie, Woody and Midget all ranging between the ages of 10 and 12 years old where documented in Compton in 1993. They where troubled kids living in the crazy world of gangs.The mother weak with no control of her children; the father no where to be seen. A sad tale with a tragic ending. Fox undercover followed up with them ten years later 2003. The video was cut off when they tell what happened to Lil Chuckie, but from what I remember and the comments he had gotten killed. This is another display on how the early 90's was a time when the gang culture was at it's peek. Innocent kids turned heartless.
