The Rogue Rideshare Driver
The dictionary defines a rogue as … a dishonest, knavish person; a scoundrel, a playfully mischievous person; scamp:
I’m not sure I qualify as a rogue under those strict terms, although as a writer of fiction (See The Wiz of Iz link), my stock and trade is making stuff up. In other words, I’m a professional liar. That’s not to say that everything that I write in these stories didn’t really happen. Everything that I relate or describe did, in actuality, happen. This is a fact. It’s indisputable. However, some of it happened, primarily, in my own mind.
But am I a scoundrel for this? Perhaps, I scound around a bit with words and subtle suggestions? But a hard cold scoundrel? I don’t think so! Not like the knaves that I used to work with inside the system. If you want to know exactly what I’m implying here … well, you’ll just have to subscribe to this blog to find that out.

What makes me a rogue is my outlook, because, well, it’s different. I tend see events from more ironic perspective than most, in part because I tend not to frequent conventional mental habitats - especially television and the Faceborg. Despite all the known risks, I still read books and long articles. (See It’s a book)
Some of these don’t even have pictures.
