LOL, I was thinking name tags with our screen names, but your idea is a lot better, lol

I’d hope so since you live like 20 mins from it :stuck_out_tongue:

Talked to my club today. I have to put together a proposal.

They’re usually looking to make a buck, but I told them I’m not looking to profit from this. Hopefully, it will go smoothly with the club.

Guess the next step is contacting some of the authors.[/quote]

Did you have a timeframe in mind already? Whatabout travel/lodgin arrangements? If you have some of that info already let me know I can ask at least one of the authors.

I’m in! I’m from DC so I’ll go home whenever :slight_smile:

I vote for sep 26th… since I’ll be up there then anyway :slight_smile:

I better switch my avatar back to my weight set then…

I better switch to, since I already have a Cobra t-shirt and hat.

lol, something like this will take a while to plan.

I’m thinking maybe some time in April.

Nice.

Too cold for the pool at Chez Say…you’ll just have to plan on going swimming with She Say in the bathtub.

You didn’t realize this already? That guy is my physique role model, and I’ve only seen his pictures!

Any threads relating to what happened at the last shin dig?

I’ll manage. You don’t need a lot of room for a breaststroke.

I guess it’s fitting that at the Scottish Games last weekend I bought a katana that has a cobra head for the handle.

Did you buy a kilt too? If you wore your helmet, cape, and a kilt you would pretty much be the ultimate badass of the universe.

Oh man.

The last time there was an unofficial T-Fest, it led to 3 divorces and way too much drama.

Ain’t no way we can officially sponsor one unless Biotest conducted the whole thing and made everyone take an oath of celibacy.

Oooh. Good point. I almost forgot about all of that.

What on earth happened that it led to 3 divorces? My goodness

Just a lot of high T, high energy, well built folks out on short leave and mayhem ensued. I will just leave it at that.

Hmmm thats unfortunate. Hopefully it won’t be a repeat of the last one then

My hope as well. Either way, that should not dissuade people from attending this potential seminar and having fun. I really had such a good time at the last one. It’s incredibly cool to meet the people behind the posts.

Here is what I recall:

  • Bauer97 is ginormous. Seriously.

  • Nate Dogg is exactly as you would expect him to be in person (and to me, that is a good thing).

  • BostonBarrister is the same in real life as well. Super smart guy and a genuinely nice person.

Met a bunch of other folks (not everyone is jumping to mind off hand) but some of the best moments come outside of the presentations. I was fortunate enough to be sitting outside the hotel bar in a group with Dave Tate, Alwyn Cosgrove, Eric Cressey, Mike Robertson, Jason Ferruggia and Dave Barr, just listening to everyone shoot the breeze about anything and everything. It was hysterical.[/quote]

Get those guys again and I will be all over it. I also like the recommendations of Berardi, N Green, Polquin and Robertson.

Hell, I may be able to expense this.

April could work, just not May.

Either way if anyone knows of a good gym in NOVA let me know. I always get kicked out because deadlifts set off those damn lunk alarms at the foo foo gyms.

That is an odd reason - even if only an ancillary one - to travel to a different continent.

A few people from this site have met me. Trust me, I’m not nearly as scintillating in person.

I will be the one wearing the “Eeyore” t-shirt.

Look here for one of the threads leading up to the event:

and here for a report of what transpired:

I’m sorry I missed it. It’s a bit of a drive from Toronto, but I’ll go to this one.

John

This would be awesome, I’d definitely try to get there.

Add Bill Roberts and Cy Willson (if he’s still around) to the list of contributors that I’d like to see.
