In reality, little Johnny in the school yard will probably say any way. I
met my share of "little Johnnie's" in school. Yes, to a certain  few Rocker
is a "role model" but that's a whole other social issue. I watched him play

types of epilepsy.
It would not surprise me if Rocker were given the right neurotests series,
he may be shown to have some type of seizure disorder, sort of like
Tourette's. Then again, he may be, as Mag so aptly put it "just another
asshole".
