Make Yourself

Make Yourself

They say there are two sides to every story. I say that everybody has a story. This is my story and as dictated by the cliché, I am in a constant battle with my internal identity paradigm. Some of you know me as Steven, to the rest I hide behind a guise of The Standout. [...]

Every vice has its price

Every vice has its price

Everyone has their vice. Some people have dependencies. A select few have addictions. I have an affliction of all three for the same poison.

I know how I got here, I just don’t know why

I know how I got here, I just don’t know why

I’m about to get serious here folks, so if you are looking for the classic Standout mental regurgitations of women, booze and debauchery check back another time. Today I want to talk about life. I spent yesterday morning in the hospital visiting an employee who recently was stricken with cancer and is fighting a battle [...]

Bulletproof

Bulletproof

The journey of my current quest of personal development has rendered me bulletproof.

Crawfish, ambulance rides and booze

Crawfish, ambulance rides and booze

What do these have in common? My weekend. Every year there is a festival downtown Memorial Day weekend that involves live music, unlimited booze, miniscule clothing and crustaceans. I make no attempts to justify the correlations between these, but I also make no attempt to deny that Crawfish Festival is a scene that demands my [...]
