Feeling My Mortality


In a coincidentally random way, Mongo ran across a couple of articles today concerning two of my skateboarding contemporaries...Tony Hawk and Mark "Gator" Rogowski. Both of these guys are right around my own age, but their lives have taken distinctly different paths since we were all young skateboarders. One of them is a legend but is getting divorced for the third time, while the other was just denied parole for at least another seven years and is serving a potential life sentence for rape and murder.

At one time in the 80's they both had the world in front of them.
