11-30-04  greetings from new orleans! i hope everyone enjoyed there thanksgiving, filled with turkey and football!!!! i missed everyone very much. things here are okay. i am very stressed out right now i got tons going on. i left the police force i was working for and started at a different one. i loved working for the one but it was time i moved on. i had allot of great years there, tons of stories, and no regrets. but when it is time to go its time to go. that is a very small agency (1 square mile) which has ups and downs but it lacks allot of the things i am looking for. most of all heart. there is allot of people there (not all) that i thought of as my family. but no family should ever have all the  jealousy, betrayal, back stabbing, and lies as i was a victim too. but i take away years of training, education, and life lessons with no regrets.  worst part is i had to give up duco. he was my best friend and a huge part of me. this was very difficult but has to be. he will be missed. i have allot of issues in my personal life as well right now. i am trying to settle everything down and just be happy but with everything upside down it is very tough. those of you that really know me know that i was raised to be tough and i am, so this is just a step in my life that i'm dealing with and i will overcome.

11-16-04  wow it has been a month since i last updated the site. some of you know that a whole lot has changed in my life in the last month. for those of you that don't know in time you will but not now. i have however got rid of my bellsouth e-mail. there was no need for it so the only working e-mail i have is the eric@scrappymofo.com. so halo 2 has been released for my box. i am really enjoying that. i totally re-built the yamaha yz, and burnt out the gsxr rear so i somehow squeezed a 200 bridgestone on it. that is a big tire for a sportbike fills up the swinger but looks great. i added a bunch of pictures to the random picas page.  

10-19-04  well the weekend did really suck other then voodoo est. if something could go wrong it did. thank god it's over i really can't get much lower then right now so it only can go up.. voodoo est was a blast though. check out some of the pictures. halloween is two weeks away!! new orleans seems to think that halloween is a bigger deal then christmas so fun fun fun. went down on the dirt bike again but no major injuries. got some bruises, and cuts but i laughed and walked away. the bike got about 2 hours worth of repairs but nothing major. that's it, i am off to my box where mortal combat is waiting.

10-17-04  it has been a horrible month for so many reasons but i really can't get into any of it right now. just right now it seems like i am having a streak of bad luck. but it has to end soon. but on to better things. i am trying some new stuff with the look of the webster.  i am going to the voodoo music est. today that should be fun. the house of shock has returned. that is allot of fun very scary but fun. so there is hope in the future. got some new pictures up check them out. i will get some of voodoo today and post mid-week. i'm out.

10-1-04  october has arrived! the weather starts to cool down, my sissymofo's birthday, halloween, steel pony, and voodoo feast. i went to the cramps show all bands played great. i had a blast! surpassingly small crowd, but that just means no sweaty shirtless guys standing next to me so i was happy. i watched most of the debate on t.v. i am still having some problems digesting the shit they got me to swallow. now i must decide who i should settle for and deal with for 4 years as i watch police programs and pay fade away and drift to another country. oh boy rock on electoral college. one more thing i remember while i was growing up my mother waking me and rodney up at the crack of dawn and driving us 30 ins. away to play hockey for an hour. or the days i would go into the backyard and skate that pond and play hockey in freezing cold weather all day. our games under the lights was when we would turn our headlights on and light up the pond. i remember skating all night at sir and lakeshore sleeping on nets in the back next to the zamboni just so i could wake up and skate some more. that's love for a game. i wait all summer i sit through boring ass baseball just because i know hockey is right around the corner as i track all the off season trades. now hockey time is here and it's cancelled till further notice!!!!! the league and unions can't work out issues over pay!! what kind of crap is that. this could be a year that i don't sit on the edge of my couch screaming at the tv because i want to see someone kiss and lift a cup into the air. no hl??!?! i wish they would trade the bmw back for there hearts. 

9-28-04  the cramps in concert tomorrow. i can't wait!! some may remember that i worked security for them a few times last year, but not this time i will be just another drunk face in the crowd. chesterfield kings and rock city morgue (white zombie members) open up for them. this should be a great show. during the day i will be racing the yamaha yz at the spillway. so i have a full day ahead of me. i put some new pictures up in bikes, the boys, and ivan so check them out and i will update again later.

9-22-04   i have worked way too many hours over the past 2 weeks!! last week alone was 84+ hours recorded. it has been tough but i see the light, i am one more 13 hour day away from a 3 day weekend what to do what to do... the cramps are in concert at my house of blues, the bikes are calling to me, and i may be getting some ink done on sunday if the guy draws what i'm looking for. i had the opportunity to see ministry and my life with the thrill kill cult in concert two weeks ago. what a great show. i got a few picas i will post but for now i sleep.  

9-16-04    it's over ivan has come and gone (at least for me). so here is the deal. everything was closed, and almost everyone evacuated. a curfew was put into effect, no one was allowed outside at all! so it looked like a ghost town and then there was me and k-9 duco just chilling outside waiting for something. and nothing ever happened. it never rained here!!! it was strange. it got cloudy and windy. real windy but not like what i heard it was supposed to. last i heard about 25,000 in my area without power, no deaths, and no real major damage. it was almost fun the wind was between 30-70mph some gusts would knock you off balance but no cars got flipped. hurricane mara will do more damage in portland this week then ivan in new orleans. so i am alive and got some pictures but it's hard to get a picture of wind so nothing great.  

9-14-04     ivan!!!!!!!! wow it is getting crazy here. the gas stations are running out of gas the stores are running out of everything, home dept. is out of wood, the roads out of the city are backed up for miles and miles. and then there is me, the bikes, and the boys in the middle of it. i have been put on emergency schedule. they are saying that if it comes up the gulf into the mouth of the mississippi river there will be a huge  amount destruction! floods is what scares me the most.  but 160mph winds!!!!! oh my god. this might be one to talk about for years to come. the worst part is i will be worried about my house and my dogs and bikes. and my life for that matter all while trying to prevent crack heads from looting and elderly loosing power to there medical equipment. my mind is going nuts and i am freaking out!! but i guess this is what we do, this is my job, and life. all of us that pin that badge on is willing to put everyone else in front of themselves, yet most of us work side jobs to pay for food? but i am yet to met a cop that does this for the money. wish me luck i will have the camera in hand.

9-8-04        well september has arrived!!!! kids are back in school and off my streets!!! good old curfew is back down and no more babysitting at night!! my dream is my little sissymofo's nightmare who is back teaching the little devils of this world. hockey is back on, football is starting, motorcars coming back around, steel pony bike show, and a great set of concerts all right around the corner! all good stuff.

8-30-04    the olympic games have come to an end. i really didn't get to watch too much of them. i saw a race or two, a couple dives, some jumping, even a little jumping around gymnastics but man i got into that women's beach volleyball!!! was that great or what!! what a event i was glued to the t.v. overtime that was on. i will be waiting for the 2008 games. i might even fly to beijing to watch it in person!!! i wonder how you become like a referee for that???? i will give up police work if i can get that job..... so on to other things i had a great awards ceremony for work last weekend and i took home 9 awards including the highest a "class a. medal of valor". i also got a life saving, award of commendation, and other things. the event was great nice place incredible food. and just very well put together and made me very proud. feels good to get a that-a-boy every now and then makes you feel good (until you return to the streets and chase some cracked who just beat up his old lady for a nickel  while he calls you a doughnut eating pig) but hey, i guess it's the ones that fear us that hate us and the good people thank us! right? sure. (remember that next time you get pulled over for speeding or seatbelt....) 

8-27-04   alright i got some new pictures up and made a few changes. i have broke my cellophane so i don't know anybody's phone number so don't expect me to call for a while. everything is good here i have been very busy catching up on work and things around the house. i enjoyed all my vacations so much i really needed to get away for a while, i am just glad i got to do it. i hope everyone is good. enjoy the site. my email is linked at thew bottom still until next time...take care

8-23-04    so i think i am going to list a singles ad. in the paper tell me what you think:
i like long walks on the beach. candle light dinners, and sweating to the oldies. i like to pretend to be a speed reader and dancing naked in front of my pets. my hobbies include dialing wrong numbers and hoping a conversation starts and i get stuck in traffic just to pass the time. also enjoy watching the boobies on national geographic while making love to a batch of silly putty. my future plans include... not much. looking for a girl that’s like rice crispy treats (easy, hot, and sweet). see i like my girls like i like my cheese. perfect for me fat free american singles only. i am looking for a girl that is anorexic. the winner is the thinner so i don’t have to take her out to a fancy dinner like gmc. d’s. age is not important. the older the easier they are to pick up and i can fill the generation gap while cleaning the cobwebs from her rafters. overall, all i really want in a girl is…. me.
i think i may be single for a while but it's worth a shot...

7-19-04   well i am another year older. this is somewhat scary to me. though i have learned some things. girls lie, bikes don't. don't matter how bad of a day my dogs are having, they are always happy to see me. today is a day tomorrow will never see. and a good friend will always be there whenever you need it. may it be when your pissed, sad, bored, whatever. to help mend whatever seems to get broken may it be a foot, or a heart. too buy the next round of drinks, and to say that chick is checking you out (even if she's not). i may not be able to find a good girlfriend, but i have found some great friends. but in my years, life overall has been good to me. my bikes are running great, i am a sergeant making good money and i love going to work!?! i still haven't gotten fat and i can still eat whatever i want. cartoons and toys still make me laugh. a great song can alter my mood don't matter what mood i'm in. so anywise... i am going to rochester to help my now married sister party a little this week. then me and mike will be returning to florida in two weeks to cause havoc and work on our pro-bodyboarding careers. i will take tons of pictures of both and will update when i return. till then take care...  

6-20-04   bad news.. i crashed the dirt bike and jacked myself up. spent some time in the er and now can't walk, drive, run, ride, nothing... this sucks.. i feel that i will heal up soon but i guess time will tell. i know the question everyone is wondering. and yes the bike is fine. i have a little work but nothing major. i will be back up and riding soon. other then being a cripple everything is good. since i will be off my feet for awhile i will do a full update to the page soon but now i must go and ice.    

6-7-04      well i can share my good news. i was offered and accepted a sergeants position this past week at work. this really doesn't change a whole lot. i still work nights i still roll with duco i just have allot more responsibility, more stuff to pin on the uniform and get a little more money. i will keep everyone posted. now i must prepare myself for what people wait for all year....game 7 stanley cup finals hockey
