collective minds to discover his true identity.. but Rock? Well, read this and see what
HAPPENS!
Story 6: Bonnie and Clyde
Well, they SAID Bonnie

portion of Rock's journey is INTENSE and GENUINE! Not a story for the faint hearted.. Rock
is given a gun.. must pout run police... he is tempted by the sordid personality of
"Bonnie" to the point he commits two armed robberies.. and then is set up to be
murdered!! This is REAL and unedited.. How did he survive...?

a place as strange to him as SF. But once here, a strange thing happens, he is soon
running around pan handling and such? Pauly is aghast, Rock a member of a CULT? Read

figure a way to get to New Orleans in this part of the story. They are in Indigo
California.. hot.. dry.. dead.. They see a Freight train and think.. WOW! You must read

happen here.. READ IT!
Story 10: Joe Arrives Home To
Rescue His Family!
Well, if you miss this
one, you missed it all! In this story, taken from several chapters of House Of Cards, Joe
(Rock) returns home from years of travel with enough cash to rescue his family. But, low
and behold, those Mafioso that had been a part of his life, those whom the first 30
chapters had spoke of, well, they were waiting. But Joe (Rock), at 16, has learned
much from his journey. From Jack The Cat to Bonnie and Clyde, Joe had saw and done it all.
Had these experiences taught Joe How To GET THE JOB DONE?
This is the TAKE DOWN portion of House of Cards where Rock, with
a .38 Revolver and no bullets, with two friends, take down over 30 Mafia figures, force
them to strip, rob them, and get away.. well, do they.. if YOU READ NOTHING ELSE, READ
THIS!
Story 11: Is There Life After
Death
Have you ever lost a
mother, father, child? Have you ever asked your self if your loved one KNEW you loved
them? When was the last time you SAID that you loved those around YOU?
This is one of the most difficult writings of Rock. In this writing Rock (joe),
after 30 years of travels and placing blame on his family, comes to terms with his mother.
He does this after receiving a call forming him that his mother is dying of cancer. In
this heart breaking yet glorious true story, Rock will come to many terms and endings in a
twinkle of an eye..
The writing is MOVING and focused. It is majestic in its delivery..
places you RIGHT THERE!! Will he truly understand? Will his Mother forgive him for his
life time of hurt?
I would like to say, READ THIS and WEEP and BE REFRESHED and INVIGORATED and
then CALL SOMEONE that you have long thought wrong and FORGIVE THEM-- TELL THEM YOU
LOVE THEM!!!!!
