More importantly, who cares? This one is about Troy, a young metalhead Mark knew as a kid who loved to shoot things, drive erratically and play pranks on whoever they could find.

For everybody else, it&#8217;s the fascinating story of somebody who&#8217;s not quite a loser, but also still pretty far from being one of the &#8220;cool kids&#8221;.
