In its paltry defense of why no one at Penguin’s Riverhead imprint did due diligence on rogue scribe Margaret B. Jones, the editor cites a ‘letter from a gang leader’ as evidence that the author was legit. On that note, The Rage can think of five great reasons to get a gang leader to vouch for you.
1. You are seeking membership to a gang.
2. Someone kicked sand at you.
3. You are trying out for the role of a Jet in a local production of ‘West Side Story.’
4. You can’t get your Endeavor agent to return calls.
5. Your dog -- er, pitbull -- ate your old letter from a gang leader.
