Bio: Kevin was born to an upper class family. Dad is a computer software developer and mom owns 2 posh restaurants. KJ is the youngest of three children he has an older brother and an older sister. Both of whom are in college where his brother Eric is getting ready to be drafted into the NFL, and his sister Leigh is a year away from going into Law School.

Kevin was always a “unique” child. Very unfocused and just willing to be on his own. However he always demonstrated a love of music. His parents figured let him go to the music store and pick something out. At the age of 10 he picked out a bass guitar, and this was all he needed. Kevin was suddenly focused and driven to develop his skills. Kevin knew this was what he wanted to do with his life.

Kevin’s desire to be a musician has created some tension within his family. His parents want him to go to college in case the “music thing” (as they call it) doesn’t work out (Which by the way they're hoping it doesn't, because they feel this is beneath them). However they support him begrudgingly and they are willing to indulge him for now. Unbeknownst to Kevin his grandmother fully supports him, and she is far wealthier than Kevin's parents. The reason his parents support him is that his grandmother has said if Kevin’s parents don’t support him they’re out of the will. Kevin’s parents don’t realize it, but Kevin is now the executor of his grandmother’s will. Kevin feels that his band is on their way, and views his band mates as his family.

Oddly enough...I agree with you my friend.

Surviving: The End (character-centric; modern zombie survival)

Luke walked into the dining area and looked at the feast before him. He shook his head at Ryan and said, "Come on now man. You know I like my beans medium rare these are well done." The two men chuckled at one another as Luke sat down to enjoy the meal with a cup of coffee. Luke heard Ryan's analysis and ideas about the day. Luke nodded and said, "That sounds good to me. I gotta believe though that with all the people working here, and all the chemicals for like the upkeep of the station that there has to be some place they washed up. With locker rooms and everything there has to be something somewhere especially with the executives living high on the hog in this place."

He looked over at Ryan and said, "Yeah I think we both can use a shower and some washing up. It's a bad sign when neither of us can readily recall when the last time we took a shower. Then again it's just you and me I don't think we have to really worry about impressing anyone right now. Besides compared to some of the others that we've run into we're actually a couple of winners."

It was when Luke thought back to when Ryan mentioned another way in that Luke's focus shifted from the DVD to business at hand. Like a switch went off in his head that told him it was time to get back to business. Luke stood up and paced a bit and said, "I agree face it you and I have it pretty good in this joint, but you and i both know at some point things are gonna get dicey again. My friend we are living on borrowed time it's best we get ahead of things while we can. Not to mention it would be a pretty good idea to know of another way out of here."

Luke took another sip of his coffee and then left the room to make ready for their trip out. He thought about his bow and arrow, but decided against it because Luke knew it was time to keep an eye on his arrow supply. Sooner or later he would have to venture out to get some more from the sporting goods store down the street, or hope that there was tree farm in this place that he could pillage. Luke didn't think there was a huge chance of that happening, so he grabbed his baseball bat, some rope, his knife, a flashlight and made his way back to Ryan.

He said, "Once this episode is over go ahead and get ready and we'll move out." Luke looked back at the TV and said, "Didn't see this much when it first came out. It's rude and sophomoric and totally predictable." Luke looked back at Ryan and said, "And I love it." The two shared a laugh over that and watched the rest of the episode. When the episode was over Luke asked, "I wonder if the blonde is out there and is a survivor?" Ryan looked at Luke and Luke said, "Hey you never know a beautiful young lady like that and a mature guy like me. You know stranger things have happened."

Ryan shook his very slowly and Luke said, "Go ahead and gear up before I start asking those questions about the blonde wearing glasses. Which by the way not bad looking either." Luke shook his head and said, "Wow I need to get out more."

Luke said to Ryan as he prepared to get his gear, "Just a heads up with beans and coffee in me you might wanna let me walk behind you. I can already tell those beans are gonna give some issues."

Welcome Back my friend. I will have post up before Midnight.

Walking the tightrope (AgniSpirit/MST3K 4ever)

Rick nodded when Lia offered him the "pre-promotion" and said, "Thank you ma'am. Sorry about the accent I try not to let it out, because if people hear the first thing they think is 'Gomer Pyle is in the big city probably dumber than a sack of hammers.' so I try not to let that get in my way." He shrugged his shoulders and said, "I'm also a little nervous right now. Less than 24 hours ago I was back home in Raleigh now I'm in one of the largest corporations in the world telling the co-CEO that something is wrong with her bookkeepers and accountants. Kind of thing doesn't happen to me everyday you know." Rick then smiled at Lia and said, "I look forward to getting a lot of things done here."

Rick followed Lia throughout the building and made notes along the way. Rick was sure of one thing, and that was Lia was the power behind the throne. She was beautiful but there was a mind like a steel trap too, and woe be to the one who under-estimated her. She knew people by their first names and titles and rattled them off like there were second nature. Lia was interested in the people who worked for her and that said a lot about who she was. Rick had to remind himself periodically of one fact. The fact that he was supposed to help bust her at some point so it was important to remember that she was one of the bad-guys.

As they walked along Rick looked at the people in the offices and their body language as they did their jobs. This was an environment where there was a strong sense of community and willingness to help one another. It was a unique situation to say the least, and not to mention that from what Rick could tell their charitable foundation was on the up and up, and gave millions around the world. Again though Rick had to remind himself these people were the bad guys.

Rick started to say something just the elevator doors opened up and out stepped Renzo. That alone would've caught Rick's attention, but exiting with Renzo was several members of the Yakuza. It was like a mob dream team meeting here, and Rick was starting to put two and two together very quickly. Mr. Kawashima was one of the big names in the Yakuza and he didn't come to America on social calls.

Renzo started talking to Rick, and Rick was convinced that if it wasn't for the fact that Renzo was born into this family he would've ended up being a used car salesman. Rick's little voice was telling him that Renzo was the one who took great pride and pleasure in doing the old school stuff for the family. Renzo loved the mafia lifestyle and enjoyed the many fruits of it, but there was something about Lia that while she was involved in all of this it wasn't really who she was.

Renzo calling Rick "Ricky" was not something Rick appreciated, but he didn't exactly have the home field advantage in this case, so he let it go. Rick replied (without any attempt at covering his accent), "Well it's the usual first day stuff Mr. Barriello. Getting the lay of the land, seeing how things work here, talking with Miss Barriello about the accounting department and some ways to improve things. The thing I'm really looking forward to actually is just getting down to business sir. That and fixing up my apartment, and getting a car. I just got in last night so things are bit whirl wind for this country boy sir."

Sounds good to me...no problem.

Walking the tightrope (AgniSpirit/MST3K 4ever)

Rick was gazing out the window at the Chicago Skyline.The buildings rising up to touch the sky and the people scurrying about looking like ants at a picnic made him shake his head briefly as he said in a tone slightly above a whisper, "Toto I don't think we're in Raleigh anymore." He adjusted his gray tie that went with his beige suit and brown loafers. As much as he hated the look on a lot of levels Rick had to admit he did look good in his suit. Even though he thought for sure he could pass for Clark Kent's twin brother.

Rick had a working knowledge of how companies like this worked, and since he looked like an accountant the Bureau made sure he knew all the in and outs. Of course the Barriellos were always able to keep things in order to prevent any red-flags from going up. From what Rick could see the Barriello books were pretty tight all the way up to last year. This year's books though on the surface looked solid, but there were definite cracks in the armor showing up. Whoever had been doing them was not as sharp as they had been in the past. Clearly they were focused on something else, and did just enough to keep things looking legit. However all it would take was one over eager accountant to do some digging behind the numbers, and boom the house of cards goes down hard. Rick knew that the Bureau would never settle for arresting the Barriello family on Tax Issues. The Government had to settle for that when they went after Al Capone, but the guys that Rick (or Kevin) knew wanted blood and to make names for themselves. They wanted this family on murder, gun-running, drugs, the headline grabbing stuff. Following the money where the money led to was the first step for most of these guys on their way up the status ladder.

Just then Rick heard a voice behind him call out his name. He turned and suddenly he was face to face with Lia Barriello. Rick was expecting to see a lot of things today to see Lia Barriello was not on that list. He was actually expecting to see a sub-ordinate from accounting or maybe even a lawyer, but seeing Lia was a surprise. It went without saying Lia was a beautiful woman and looked way better than her pictures. Granted those were grainy black and white photos pulled off of surveillance footage, but even in those Lia had nothing to be ashamed of in the looks department. Rick also realized that if Lia was going to be involved in this he was dealing with a very smart woman, and that he needed to be on his "A" game.

Rick replied trying to cover his Southern Drawl (although not very successfully), "Yes Hello Miss Barriello. Rick Cooper I represent the accounting firm of Montgomery, Holden, and Miller. An outside independent accounting firm contracted to go over your bookkeeping. "

He motioned to the bookkeeping report on the table. The report looked exactly like Webster's Dictionary . Just as thick and it was even hardbound with gold lettering that stated, "Barriello Inc. Tax Summary for Fiscal Year 2013." Rick said, "I went through the first 10 pages on the flight in last night, and to be honest Miss Barriello there are things that I have found so far that might be considered questionable in terms of the bookkeeping."

Rick looked at Lia and said, "In comparison to the previous years when you and your brother took over for your late father those books were sharp and tight. This one not so much from what I've read so far. Not enough inconsistencies to call the bookkeeping into question as of right now, however if there are even more obvious inconsistencies, or an eager auditor should get a hold of this then you and your brother could get a call from the IRS and they would probably suggest that you bring a lawyer with you."

Rick took a deep breath and said, "I realize that this is not the kind of news you want to hear so early in the day, but I have a job to do and if I wasn't honest with you Miss Barriello I wouldn't be doing my job, and you and your company would be in a lot of trouble."
