Hi I’m Joe, for those of you who are new I included the handy dandy link to my old log(see above)in case you want to see anything there.
I’m a 43 year old who pretty much acts like a highly responsible, moderately well behaved 17 year old. I grew up in the inner city of Birmingham, Alabama but thanks to the efforts of my Grandfather I learned all the essential southern skills such as shooting, running a trotline, skinning catfish, and refering to everyone as Sir or Ma’am. For years I was certain I had escaped speaking with a Southern accent but my first trip to Chicago throughly abused me of that notion.
I spent a great deal of my youth with relatives in New Orleans and on the swampy parts of the Gulf Coast where I worked construction or on shrimp boats during the summer months. Here I learned that shrimping is hard work and that cajun and creole young women have a sort of voodoo thats hard to describe and harder to resist.
It was my honor to serve as an infantryman in the USMC and I attended the University of Alabama both of which I am inordinately proud of. I work at a University where I do thing the DOD prohibts me from being specific about.
If you continue to read this log you will find that I use self depreciating humor to motivate my self. Don’t be fooled, in reality I’m am pretty damn cocky and while I might have the normal self doubts everyone does I’m fairly self assured.
This log will contain videos of my lifting and lots of me being a goofy ass.
You will not be wowed by my strength as you might be in some of the other logs posted here but I hope you enjoy your self. In my spare time I have gone back to school with the long term goal of geting a Doctorate in Economics, we’ll see how that goes. I also Medieval Combat which I might mention here every so often. I really like to cook, as well as dance. I am terrible singer and if mankind can build a thing I can break it.
Now on to more important things.
Pie>Cake
Pancakes>Waffles
SEC>All
Alabama>Auburn
Finally, all hail the mighty Wendler from who all wisdom flows.
Hope you enjoy the log.
That point will be proved to you even more next week when you are all here
