Over the lsst few posts and the next however many, the editor is showing the contrast of the 1985 Blagden Alley and Naylor Court world with that of today. Here is a simple picture showing the contrast:
Just a baby carriage in front of a house on the 1200 block of Tenth Street. There was no such picture in 1985. Yes, there were a few babies. But the simple fact that the baby carriage is there to be photographed contrasts with 1985. In 1985, the baby carriage would not be there. It might be on Fourteenth Street being sold to a passer by.
In 1985, if it could be stolen, it was stolen. Period. The contrast of then and now isn't just in pictures. If there is any political incorrectness about the above fact, the editor doesn't really care. That's just the way it was.
