finally. a real live outlaw in my lifetime.

Outside magazine recently published an article about an 18 year old outlaw from Washington state who goes by the name Colton Harris-Moore. Many speculate his inevitable life as an outcast to society simply by his name, Colt, which has a thick connection to historical outlaws of the wild west. a kid who simply evades government authority by stealing as a means of survival...maybe a little on the extravagant side when you consider his taste in planes and boats...yet doing no humanly harm besides crushing the egos of police and FBI. none the less, a kid who is living the way a lot of us only (secretly) dream about. what dude doesn't want to be a badass? what chic doesn't want a badass boyfriend? these questions are generalizations and do not apply to me, i am neither and do not want either...although i must admit that the noun "rogue" is quite appealing, and sometimes endearing. like my step-dog Weston, his human daddy is a rogue, which is why Weston is his name...West of the Peocs....future outlaw's doggy sidekick in the making? we'll have to wait and see.

in the mean time, read the article for yourself and decide how punishable his actions are, all laws aside. because, i mean, come on, do you agree with every law?
