Yo soy Jack's demographic data point
So I was having another Prisoner-related fever dream Wednesday morning (OK it was more like noon) when I managed to answer my cell phone for the following (paraphrased with license) conversation:
Andre Coleman: Ruiz ... just what the hell are you?
Kenneth Todd Ruiz: Dying at the moment.
Andre: So I've heard. But do you consider yourself Latino? I'm filing something on the media thing last week.
Todd:: Well that's a tricky one. I've never identified with any ethnic group.
Andre: So is that a 'yes' or a 'no?'
Todd: Here's my quote: 'I will not be filed, stamped or indexed."
Apparently it didn't make the cut. Otherwise have been too busy upon my return to life to scan this week's edition for comedic material and cheap shots.
Prisoner, great show man. LOL, sorry it didn't make the cut.
Hope you're feeling better.
"As far as I know, we haven’t been abusive or untruthful or arrogant or hypocritical. Then why did people attending this meeting — called by newly elected City Councilwoman Jacque Robinson — seem to want to tear down the independent press now operating in Pasadena?" A.

Am I paranoid or is strange for a politician to call a meeting to evaluate the local press. I live in district 1 I wish I would have known about it in advance. PS. AC has appointed you Latino.
Yeah he knows, I called him on the phone.
