Since last we spoke

Filed under: Blog Post

It’s been over a month since my last post, but a lot of good shit has been going on in my world. Other then the hardcore, extreme board gaming for interstellar domination, I’ve had a few revalations in my life. I’m not going to be doing music for a while, not until I can revamp the home studio. Why am I stopping music for a while?

I don’t have the time quite frankly! I’ve been working on a new adult horror book, caring for 2 puppies and 4 cats and working on starting several small businesses. Plus, due to having so many animals and the sinking economy here, money is in short supply, so I’m selling my laptop.

WHAT!?! OMG!!! Don’t worry though, I will be online regardless and will be making more time or this website from now on. Until I can set up the home studio, I don’t really need my own computer. Plus I’m getting a Nintendo DS and an iTouch DS out of it, atop enough money to pay up to date all of our bills. Good deal!!!!!!

Recently I’ve been reading A WHOLE SHITLOAD of H.P. Lovecraft, as I have his complete works, and will be setting up a D20 call of Cuthulu game here in Tucson soon. Good ole’ Dn’D with a Lovecraftian twist of Shoggoth lime. Lovecraft is by far the finest horror/Macabre author America has EVER seen.

I have tons and am an avid collector of all media H.P. Lovecraft related and created. I have a ton, but there’s tons more to get…Lovecraft is by far and in large the biggest inspiration in my own horror works. I you’ve never read anything by Howard Philips Lovecraft, you need to NOW, because about 80% of all horror books and movies alike, borrow greatly from his genius.

Lots of new stuff is coming for my lil’ corner of the net, I’ll keep everyone posted.

New News

Filed under: Blog Post

I have a ton of stuff going on right now, which explains why I have been blogging so infrequently. I’m forming a fight club here “T-Town Tigers Fight Club” for people interested in learning martial arts or mixed martial arts in Tucson. Second I’m forming a company with our buddy Jake called Custom Critter Creations, as I mentioned in a previous post.

I’m designing and having business cards made in a simular style to those found in Japan. I’m working on a new novel called “Neo City UR” that is already well underway. In more mundane news, we’re assimilating the new puppy and kitty into the family and cleaning up after the new puppy and mojo are full time jobs unto themselves.

I’m also in the process of landscaping our yard to be able to train outdoors, without having to go to a park. I have not even found the time for music recently, but music is a hobby, not something I plan on making a career out of. I got a haircut last night finally, not short, but not nearly as long as it was. Now I really look like an evil Jesus, lol!

Oh I’ve also ventured into a new avenue of nerdom, were creating sinister alter-egos where we are super-villains. I’m already in the process of designing my costume, robots, death beams and more all in fun. For those interested in becomming a super-villain, they can apply to me in email for the free course.

New members of our family

Filed under: Blog Post

Today while perusing, we managed to find two perfect children to join our extended family. A cat named Major Pita and a new seven week old puppy named Wuzzle. This brings us to four cats and two dogs, Gobbles, Punkin, Dhot, Major Pita, Mojo and Wuzzle.

Major Pita is a great little kitty boy who loves T.V., playing and exploring the house. He is the perfect little gentleman, but he still hasnt warmed up to the other cats and dogs. Pita has been exploring a ton though and seems to be adjusting to his new home here, better then I’ve ever seen a cat do.

Now comes the point where all of the cats adjust to one another and Major Pita becomes one of their crew. Many of you who know us remember how it was when we got Dhot.

Wuzzle is an incredibly adorable Aussie/Heeler mix, that has come to us at only seven weeks old. He was a little afraid of the new house at first, but within hours Wuzzle was running around and playing with Mojo. Instantly Wuzzle and Mojo clicked and are B.F.F’s. Mojo and Wuzzle didn’t even have a period to adjust, it was just meeting, best friends, play time right away.

The cats will still have to warm up to the new little ones, but they both have taken to Sat and I. Now the plans begins for the first creations from Custom Critter Creations, the company our buddy Jake and me founded.

The pictures on here are of the two newest editions to our household, as soon as I can, I’ll nab pics of them all. Both of our dogs are hybrids, not mutts! Mojo is a Puggle, a designer dog breed mix of a beagle and a pug. If you don’t know what a puggle, designer dog or hybrid is, there’s tons of references online.

I accept your nomination…

Filed under: Blog Post

Over the years, many individuals have said that I should run my own country or become president of our great United states of America. Recently, after a discussion with a close friend of my wife and mine, I decided why not me? All kidding aside, when I am officially old enough and meet the criteria, I am and will run for the Presidency of the United States.

Possibly by next election or the one that proceeds it, but rest assured I will be running and setting up a functioning campaign and cabinet. I am also working on my platform and finding donators and skilled and dedicated campaign workers.

I will start by posting information on here, but I also hope to soon have a campaign site up and running soon. I’ve genuinely contemplated running my own country, but I love America and would much rather help America progress into the new millenium. Anyone interested in helping my campaign, please feel free to email me at dlux18 @ Gmail . Com (please remove the spaces).

I’m Frederick W Cook, and I hope to lead our nation into a new age of prosperity and pride in America.

You Reak AHHHH

Filed under: Blog Post

Well our best friend out here in Tucson was over and he and I sat in the same dilemma career wise. Neither of us wanted a “job”, we wanted something we could do, make a living from and be happy with all at once. Then one of my ideas stood out from the past, an idea that struck a chord with both of us. A business…a business we’re currently already working on starting up…Custom Critter Creations!!!

We both love animals, hairy and scaled, big and small we love them all. To be a vet, we’d need LOTS of expensive schooling and though we’d be helping animals, it would play on our heartstrings to see injured and sick animals all day. We could volunteer at an animal shelter, but then not only would we not have any money and be homeless, but we’d also want to take home every animal that came in.

Enter Custom Critter Creations!

So what is C3? That’s best described in what we do and offer pet owners. First and foremost, we’re building super high quality animal enclosures/homes. fish, gerbals, hamsters, birds, reptiles etcetera will all be covered. These animal enclosures will be the lap of luxury for pets and will provide not only a great home for them, but also a great experience for the owners to watch their pets in.

Second, we’ll be building totally custom cat walks and hamster ball tracks. Basically, we’ll come to your home, figure out what you want, measure, cut and install stairs and tracks along the walls of your home for your pets to run around at eye level (or whatever is specified) beside their owner. Catwalks will be complete with small cubby holes and will allow you and your pets, hours of fun and adventure!

Third, we’re going to be creating what I call “Feline box condos” to fit one, two or even three cats at a time.
Feline box condos are filly carpeted square homes with several toys inside and will also provide a cozy nook for sleeping.

Custom Critter Creations will provide your pets with the very finest in living quarters and will always pride ourselves in giving pet owners/care takers far more then they expect for their money. We’re a new business, but we’re in it for keeps and for providing the best homes we can for all of earths non-human creatures.

T-Town producers

Filed under: Blog Post

Greetings once again Fredaholics…I’m putting out an APB on all Tucson area hip hop producers. As Strik9 I do not do the music, I only Emcee/M.C. and so I’m looking for a steady producer or crew to work/roll/spit wit out here. First off, I’m not down for paying people, I wanna come up in the game and bring peeps along with me. Just like I’m not looking to pay peeps, I’m also not looking to make a million dollars either.

Second, I’m not Pac, EM, Twista, Tech nine the sequel either, if you are, I’m not interested. Must be relaxed, mellow and easy to work with, being 420 friendly is a plus too.

I’m 30, now what?

Filed under: Blog Post

As of July 30th, I am 30 years old…now what? I am an author (Published many times), I’m a musician in a death metal and a hip hop project, I’m an artist, I have twenty years devoted to the martial arts and I have little in the way of monetary growth to show for any of it. I have accomplished quite a few of my dreams, getting published, finding the woman I love, teaching martial arts off and on, finding a religion I fit into and becoming a Priest, getting a house and dog etcetera.

All of my accomplishments aside, show me the money??? Almost all of my students in the martial arts have been taught freely (Friends, family etc…), I give away my music freely, I’ve been published but have seen little for it from magazine or novel publications, my art is a hobby and though my art is good, I wouldn’t know where to begin selling it in any capacity other then online (not interested in doing).

Now, I stand thirty years old, a multi-talented intellectual who has no money to show for years of learning, toil, devotion, practice and application. I find my focus is on money more so now, then at any point in my life, I want money…I want a better and more secure life and future. Not just a secure and better life or me, but for my wife and our pets also.

I need to open a business of some sort, where I could utilize my skills, abilities and talents and make money from it. Ideally, I have plans and ideas worked out for a business that’s one part music studio, one part art gallery/tattoo studio and one part martial arts training facility for Mixed Martial Arts. I literally could have an entire crew ready to work the facilities, myself, wife and my best buddy Jake included, in about two to three hours!

Basically I’m looking for several investors, to make this dream a reality and to make us all a whole hell of a lot of money in the process. Your money, my vision, my work and my decades of experience! Let me make us all rich! This is seriously no scam and no internet bullshit, I am a real person wanting to start a real substantial business to make real substantial money. in total, I will need about 30,000$ to get this started up and get all of the equipment and space needed to execute this.

Monsoon a stay stay

Filed under: Blog Post

As anyone who knows me can attest too, I love the monsoons here in the desert. Rain ONLY hits here during the monsoon, the rest of the time it’s uber dry and dusty here. The monsoons here energize me, I feel like running around outside during a huge micro-burst, replete with lightening and thunder. Nothing is more impressive to me, then mother nature trying to shake a few of us from her back:)

I love storms in Tucson, they are impressive, beautiful displays that can calm the sometimes overwhelming heat of the desert.

The big 3-0

Filed under: Blog Post

That’s right, you’re boy Fred will be thirty on the thirtieth of this month. So what do I plan on doing to celebrate? Getting a tattoo…the first one EVER on my face! No cakes, no parties, no B.S. just ink, pain and love. My wife just got a digital camera, so we will have some new photos here and for the official website soon. I’m still a lil’ sick today, but I am feeling better for those who care…
