King of the Gun
Here's a tale of mine picked up by Andrew Sullivan on his blog on how one gay Marine became "King of the Gun."

Reflections on the vagaries, comedies, and tragedies of mankind.
What makes mankind tragic is not that they are victims of nature, it is that they are conscious of it. - Joseph Conrad
Who is PatricktheRogue?
Patrick (Padraig) was a Celtic chieftain about a thousand years ago who was forced, with his clan, out of Scotland into Ireland. I, the blogmaster, am one of Patrick's ancestors and I've named this blog after him in appreciation for my Irish heritage. In other words, I am grateful for having not grown up eating haggis on St. Andrew's day, but instead thriving on the unparalleled Murphy's Stout on St. Patrick's instead. Unfortunately my grandfather made it more difficult for me to obtain my favorite brew by moving to America long before I was born, but I have still managed to locate a few (thousand) pints here and there.
