Erik Schrody: Built to Last
I came to a realization that any time I got my ass kicked, wound up in jail or woke up next to an ugly broad, liquor was responsible, he says. And getting beat up or winding up in jail is not as bad as waking up next to an ugly broad.
Schrody smiles, almost to prove, yet again, that he is a blur of contra-dictions.
