A SICK S.O.B.

I was showing Adam's book to several people at work today. They all seemed surprised a had a son with some talent. They would start reading some of it and I would have to remind them that he didn't write it, he just did all the illustrations in it. The guy that wrote it must be some kind of a sick S.O.B. to come up with some of the shit that is in there. So I started getting questions about Adam's childhood, What did I do to him so that he could come up with some of those drawings in that book? Did I beat him? Lock him in a closet? Did he like to kill things? That was when it hit me. Is the mother and father of the author saying the same thing. "No Scott just wrote it" "some other sick S.O.B. did the drawing"

I got an email from B&N that my book is on the way...finally! Now, I must be a sick S.O.B because I'm curious to read the book! :)

You go Adam!!!

The mother and father of the author are both in prison and when the book came out they showed it to their cellmates and now they have the exercise room to themselves, and the guards give them smokes.
The drawings were wonderful! He got his talent through you and Cindy. Have you ever seen the beautiful clothes she can sew? Taste something she's made from scratch and for a moment you know what Heaven is like.Joe, you don't lose as little as you do at Pokerstars without a lot of talent! Also you've taken some beautiful photographs over the years. Also I think talent skips every other generation on the paternal side and fast forwards on the maternal side.
Maybe I'm not concise. I don't want to be succinct. I may be a laconic SOB, but at least I'm not afraid to use vocabulary.
Adam's drawings ROCK!

ok...I must be emotional...first i am crying b/c suzie is in love...really in love, and now i am crying because ANYONE would think we beat Adam...I love Adam and I would NEVER lock him in a closet (though we kidded we did) Adam was ALWAYS his toughest critic and would self punish by sending himself to his room when he was mad about something.(maybe he dreamed of drawing himself as a Zombie during those times?) I'm sure he would say his childhood was NOT a bed of roses, but I think he would say we did ok....OK>>>I am being defensive, but this is Scott's fault...HE wrote the book...Adam can draw kitty's and bunny's too!

That's pretty bad when postal clerks think *I'm* the psycho

Adam's right! Illustrators are much less likely to go "postal". If they get disgruntled they draw smiley faces until they cheer up....

I onlt read parts of the book....maybe I should see what that sicko is saying....the illustrations are wonderful-Adam does use his talent well....I am sure that is beacause his parents raised him well. Who is in the newspapers more...postal workers or graphic arts people???

The last postal worker I read about in the paper was a gal that tried to save a child in a burning house. Unfortunately the child died.
Damn postal workers.

ALSO
It was a joke. 99% of the blog was made up by me. It just got me thinking from the authors parents point of view because we are always saying "Adam didn't write it"
Don't make me delete this blog post.

:-X

Of course Adam is sick too. He's a Bozarth.

Eric you are talented too! I think you need to tell these people about your "vanity" book that almost made the family go broke...oh wait maybe that was John Boy from a "The Waltons" episode. Did you shoot a bear and save your father???

All I can say is that postal workers have always been very nice to me. I have never had a graphic artist be anything but pleasant to me either. I don't know it this is an apples/oranges things.
I LOVED Adam's illustrations! I didn't mind reading it either. If you've never seen the word *uck than it's time you did.
