Back door graffiti bandit hits the Zone

If you've come or gone through the back door recently, you've probably noticed the strange markings. We don't want to encourage this sort of vandalism (degenerate art?), but we are nothing if not curious at the Coffee Zone.

We seem to recall that lots of businesses have been "hit" by this graffiti gangsta. Has he or she been caught? Does anyone know who is responsible?

At a deeper level, what do the markings mean? Letters? A symbol? (sort of looks like the word "two" at the bottom) ID of the tagger? Do the same markings show up on each door? Is it always a back door? We seem to recall seeing at least one different color used on a door up the alley.

If this is your handiwork, turn yourself in. We'll see you get help. If not help, an Atomic Wedgie you will never forget.

It says FAZE TWO. These are called 'tags', graffiti artists use them to mark their territory or to make a name for themselves. They 'tag' spots where a large amount of people will see it. If there are other 'writers' in JC, don't be surprised to see this 'tag' crossed out and a new 'tag' underneath.
