Big Benching Harry, Looks strong!
Very big benching. Great work!
As to the above clean…how is that a fail? You took a step back, but I figured that was just to make it harder.
Hope all is well with you and yours!!! Your lifting and throwing seem to be agreeing with you!!! Take care and enjoy the summer with family and friends.
Catching up with you Harry. You training is mind blowing as usual!
About 31 years ago I did a joint training mission with Filippino Commandoes on Negroes Occidental, an island in the Philippine Archipelago. At the end of the mission the Filippino Commander threw a fiesta, complete with roast pig, pancit, balut, eel, OB and San Miguel beer, all the good stuff.
The Filippinos all brought family members with them to the party. One brought his sister. I thought then, and still do, she was the most beautiful women I’d ever seen. Took me a year to kidnap her. Over the next 30 years she got drug all over the world, had her belongings totally destroyed twice, had to be flown to hospitals to see her husband at least 3 times, and didn’t know where her husband was for months at a time.
She also raised 2 great boys, went to college, got a bachelor’s degree, and made a career of her own. Have to work tomorrow so we’re celebrating our 30 aniversary tonight. I guess she’s decided to keep me for a little longer. Sorry for the long story and sappiness. You get that way when you get old.
Steve, ain’t workin them hours by choice. PO refuses to hire any more people til the Saturday delivery issue is resolved. Making lots of money but I’d rather have the time. Did 30 years of real long shifts, days, nights, months…
PG, That’s just what everyone needed, another shot of my butt.
Thanks Colin, following you benching closely.
Skip, I was trying to clean and press it. Bit off more than I could chew.

Happy Anniversary Harry! (and of course to the missus!)
30 years?WOW!! My wife will kill me before we see 30 years.
Happy anniversary Harry. And adams apples are overrated.
and happy anniversary, i forgot to say that.
when you do highland games, do you throw in the open, or in the masters (with the lighter weights)?
Happy Anniversary Harry. There is nothing more I can say to follow that. I bet the next 30 will be just as good if not better!

You’re a lucky man, Harry! Congratulations on your anniversary.
Nice work, nice training too,
what a great story, here is to another 30 years.
Congrats, Harry, and I love it when you get all sappy.
Thanks everyone. I went all out on this anniversary. Drive thru at Burger King, and, I let her supersize! I do spoil the women.
MJ, both. If they get to many master’s the promoter sometimes ask some of us to compete in the Bs and vice versa. Many times the master’s is a lot more competition than the Bs. One of my goals is to get my A rating in the open this year so I’ll be in the open at least for the rest of this year.
Yesterday, looked at a bank sign while delivering mail, said 102. I was soaked by midday. Musta been given 30 glasses of water by different customers. Nice people. Kinda lifts the spirit as well as the body.

Very impressive lifting in here. ![]()

Supersizing at the drive thru. I need to take notes, this is good stuff. Might have to rethink my street vendor tacos.
