Photography is better than painting. Ever try painting drunk? But even a drunk baby could still work

About Me

I'm Rock. Rock Hard. Rock Tard. Rocko. Rock'em Sock 'em. I'll answer to just about anything. I live a simple life of work and play. I'm a farm boy from Illinois originally and ended up a punker in Vegas. I moved here a little over 5 years ago. I'm a fireman here and will hopefully stay for a long time. I LOVE this town. I love the hell out of some good shows and beer. I dig tattoos, 50's, Rum, shows, my friends, anyone that can be cool, literature, religious and political discussions, philosophy, existentialism, and Rum. Or did I already say Rum? Fuck it. This is who I am, if you can pick up what I'm putting down, Cool.

My Blog

I’m bloody engaged!

Yup, it's not a rumor, it's the truthitude.  I asked Jody yesterday on her birthday and she said yes.  She's undoubetdly emailed half the world by now telling them, but I'm telling the rest ...

The rumors are true, I have a son (really).

If you have heard the whispers or whatever you might already know, but if not, now you know.  He is two years old, and his name is Trent Vincent Lee.  His mother and I are currently in talks...

There is no such thing as motivation sometimes.

I want to work on the book I'm trying to write, but only because I want it done, NOT because I actually want to do it.  Why the crap doesn't it write it's damn self?

1984 or 2006?

In my recent delve into Orwell's 1984 I came across a paragraph: "...practices which had long been abandoned, in some cases for hundreds of years-imprisonment without trial, the use of war prisoners a...

Years young? What the fuck does that mean?

What kind of a fear of aging does it show when someone refers to themselves as "27 years young."   It's fucking ridiculous, we all get old, we all die and I'm guessing most of you need to shut up...

Supreme Stupidity?

So Rehnquist died.  Another conservative off the Supreme Court, and another opening for Bush to fill with his right wing war mongering political views. The problem here is precisely views.&n...

Justice

So I've been thinking about the American sense of justice, and I've come to the tenous opinion that it's a warped view at best.  We divide crime by status, class, the number of people harmed, etc...

hero

I'm kinda tired of being called a hero. Yea yea, firemen are heroes to most of the world, especially post 9/11. But, I'm no hero. I do my job. I don't do it poorly, and I absolutlely love what I d...

things

Tonight, well, it's tonight. I'm above ground and should be thankful for it, but somehow, it's failing to be enough these days. Something is missing...oh, I know what it is...more booze. If you rea...
