Say goodbye to the gangbanger girls. This week, we’ve lost Snoop as well as Margaret B. Jones. Both were fictional, but only one was a work of art.

Her death has to go down as one of the great ones. Only time she ever looked like a girl and where did it get her?
That was such a great moment. So much regret and yearning for a normal life, all in those two lines.

I’m now listening to the CD compilation of music from the Wire (am reviewing it for the Phoenix). The songs – remember that Pogues song from the wake, season 2? – are making me choke up.

First they take Omar from me and now Snoop. I expected it, but it’s still sad. I can’t believe there’s only one more episode. I was sure there had to be at least three. I’m really going to miss this show. Thank goodness for DVD’s.
