Rock_The_Ice's Lensography
Make yourself comfortable, the kettle is boiling... (Stavy, I will get that USB Kettle! For those not in the know, go to the TalkWhatever Forum and meet the inmates *cough* locals...)
This lens is going to be in a Q&A format and I'm going to answer many of the common questions that you may or may not be wondering. Basically, lots of questions and links to my lenses. I may end up baring my soul here; I'm not sure yet. We'll see how it goes...
P.S. If you have any suggestions for unanswered questions, contact me and I'll do my best to provide an answer!

Where Am I At In Life Now?
And A Few Things You Should Know...
I refuse to dwell on the past. What has been before doesn't necessarily influence what is yet to come.
Currently, I'm trying a few things. I'm trying to find my feet in a world which continues to spin.
I play poker. No, poker is not a seedy, gambling game only played by unscrupulous individuals. It's a test of nerve, wit and skill (and to some extent, luck) to which cards and chips are mere accessories. (Click here for some brilliant tips on how to improve your own game!)
I sing. Rock music is my forte.
I'm an opportunist. Just ask the lensmasters I have bought lenses from!
I love the excitement of a little chance; a few risks. I don't, however, make unnecessary ones.
I'm a pool demon. Challenge me, I dare you!
I also have a music blog. Check it out! Rock This World!
As well as a Squidoo blog which you should definitely subscribe to in your RSS reader; Rocking The Ice!
I consistently over-use emoticons. =]
I have a business venture coming up in the near future; watch this space!
Finally, I NEED a USB Kettle!

Significant Other?
This module was reserved for the girl known only as "Dareyourself". As it happens, fate took it's course and we have split up (yet again!).She may be my ex-girlfriend now but she will always be my best friend. I love her; it may be a different kind of love than the love when we were together but it's love all the same.
She's always there when I need someone and I hope that she could say the same about me. She's my StarsClothing partner, my "crazy angel" and the most significant person in my life by far.
So to that, I have to say; "Rock_The_Ice and Dareyourself taking on this idiotic world one stupid b****** at a time!"
The Running From Bon Jovi At 9:15pm Song...
Oh Yes; It's A Long Story...

Life Objectives?
My life objectives are probably based around what I perceive to be a perfect life.Somewhere down the line, were I to become a father, I'd want to be there for my children.
Like most people, I want success.
I also want to live my life though. I'm not on this planet to survive. A 9-5 job will never be my style. Some people will see it is crazy that I'd rather die than live a mundane life but I couldn't live a life of boredom!
I'd also like a crazy amount of money but not many people would turn that down, would they? If that ever happened I'd probably be one of those people that can go to a casino, lose $1,000,000 and say "Hell, what's a million bucks?!"
My other life objective would also to be accepted by Dareyourself's parents as I'm not posh enough...

What Would Make Your Day?
(Or Things That Would Make My Life Perfect!)
Note: This is kinda like my personal to-do list so it will probably change!
- Marry "The Girl".
- Move city.
- Find riches.
- Produce Jack's music.
Or in just three words;
Learn. Live. Love.
What Is The Significance Of "Rock_The_Ice"?
The username stemmed from my two most obvious personality traits; emotional strength and coldness.It is often commented that I show no emotion and basically, shut down to the world. I refuse to let anything phase me and very rarely do I willingly show any form of distraction from a cause.
To me, rock resembles strength. A toughness and resolve to take on any challenge, a determination that surpasses all other elements and the ability to let nothing affect you.
I also think Ice, as well as reflecting the cold trait, also resembles water. As a piscean, and someone who has an interest in the Zodiac, I relate with water quite well and I feel ice reflects that aquatic desire.

Rock_The_Ice's SquidTop Blog!
Fetching RSS feed... please stand byWhy Do You Squidoo?
I'm a Squidooer because I believe I can make substantial amounts of cash with it. It will take a lot of effort, a lot of dedication and a lot of time but I believe it is possible.Lensmaster Loyalis proved just how much can be made when he earned $1000 from one lens in one month. Whilst it isn't a typical example, I really believe it could be in the not so distant future!
I also like to both share my knowledge and learn. Squidoo gives me a platform to do that.
Sharing Some Knowledge...
To help your Squidooing and increase your productivity!-

I was browsing the internet and stumbled across Rolling Stone Magazine's Top 100 Guitarists of All Time. I'll admit I didn't agree with it and I wasn't the only one. Examples being; Eddie Van Halen was ranked #70. This is a man who defined the elect...
Interests?
Anything that allows me to escape reality. I play a lot of video games and way too much pool and cards.I'll also play virtually any game for bets. Like the late Puggy Pearson (Poker player) had quoted on the side of his bus; "I'll play any man from any land, any game he can name for any amount he can count...Provided I like it."
I also have a strong interest in illusions, paranormal phenomena and psychology. Whilst I may never know any real answers, it is the perception of what is real and fake that intrigues me.

Any Idols/Heroes?
As awesome as Chuck Norris is he isn't in this list!My heroes would have to be, firstly, Jon Bon Jovi. Jon is a man who has built a legacy from nothing. The lead singer of the legendary rock group Bon Jovi, who also became the first rock group to top the country music chart in 2007, he has achieved his ambition and created the life many budding singers can only dream of.
Secondly, Kelly Jones. He carries Stereophonics through. I admire his passion for music above all else and he really knows how to work the crowd at a gig!
If I was to name yet another music hero it would be Hayley Williams. Many female lead singers have to put up with a lot of flaming and she has dealt with it well. Although, I suppose a perk of the job being a female lead singer is you get a lot of guys obsessing about you and vice versa for male lead singers!
On a more personal note my heroes would have to be;
- Dareyourself - My best friend and StarsClothing partner. She got a full module dedicated to her; need I say more?!
- Scoot - For being the mate that will always kick me while I'm down, then tell me I shouldn't be down in the first place!
- CakE - For always just be generally understanding and being there.
- Dani - For being my "Double Trouble Buddy!"
