Hee, hee … yes, this is how my city influences my book. I live in one of the most corrupt cities, in one of the most corrupt counties in the United States. I hear Alaska and Louisiana have us beat for corruption at the state level, although that’s hard to imagine. Four out of seven of our living former governors are in jail. But hey, I guess at least we put them there.
