Too Real Halloween

On the building site of the latest mini-mansion to invade the neighborhood, I noticed that the construction workers had decorated for Halloween. It's not unusual in this part of the 90210 adjacent to see the spooky signs of the season. So what that the workers don't live there? They get to whistle while they work! Their decorations were very simple. Rough-hewn plywood grave markers with epitaphs written in black ink--stuck into a pile of dirt. Very effective! It wasn't until I took a closer look that I noticed what was written on the headstones. A little too real in this LA gang-land! I just hope they weren't real homies!
