fight

People say, “Rolston’s got a big nose,” and I’m like, “I can hear you. I’m standing right here! My nose isnt big, it’s well proportioned for my face.” And then I get in a fistfight and its like trying to protect a boat trailer hanging off my head.. So I lost the fight last night. The weirdest blood came out of my nose, too. It looked like the miscarriage my ex showed me. You can’t ever forget that. Liver like. Glossy viscous chunks.

Today at three thirty I’m interviewing a local congresswoman about impending legislation that requires recyclers to be licensed. This is part of the pod Fisher and I are shooting about cardboard recyclers in the city. I have a set of knuckle marks on my forehead and a crust of blood in my left nostril. Thank god for bangs and camera angles.

  4. What?! You can’t just casually mention you were in a fight and leave it hanging there…

    I hope there’s a story coming soon. Hopefully with some witness testimonials.

  5. Jon, I’m surprised by how many fights you get in. One of these days, you’ll win one…

    A tall guy like you shouldn’t have so much trouble protecting your nose. Try a narrow guard, next time and keep your elbows in so they can’t get you from underneath.

  7. Once my nose heals up I’m coming by to spar, gonna try the narrow guard. Also, won’t be drunk.

    the short story is, a guy is asked to leave the bar, he brings his beer with him, I grab his arm when he refuses to leave the beer inside, i take three punches to the face.

  8. I learned a cool technique this summer for disarming people: put a stiff ridge hand (like a karate chop) under their nose and push upwards. You can walk them around the whole room, likely without retaliation. It’s like grabbing a kitten by the scruff of the neck, only humiliating. You can do the same thing under the ear behind the jaw.
