Thanks man. I appreciate that.
Kill it this weekend
Can’t wait to hear about your meet. I am a big fan.
DF, Snapper, thanks. I feel honored to have Snapper as a fan.
will anyone be streaming your event? I got to watch soldog live last year on uStream. Let me know.
20 elliptical, 20 bike
blah blah blah
Effen A I am going stir crazy. It’s only Wednesday? This week ain’t moving at all folks. Time is crawling. As goofy as it sounds, I just can’t wait to lift something heavy.
Also I am really really hungry. I am eating non-stop, but mostly clean. Not doing a weight cut, per say, but also trying to avoid any crap until after weigh-ins Friday. Have a ballpark target for what I want to come in at. So I down 10 oz of steak, or chicken, and rice, and an hour later I am starving again. Last night I skarfed a lb of rib eye and 2 hours later had a huge omelete. After weigh ins I will junk up the diet just a little.
Wife and kids are heading to Chicago tomorrow to see family. This was strategic sneakery on my part. Every meet I do my wife thinks it is a great idea to throw a party. Well, we all know that meets can drag on. Back in October I was still waiting to pull and I had a house full of people, an hour away. By the time I got home there was hardly any food left, lol.
Seriously, I am going nuts over here. I am now convinced I would a sever ass hole if I didn’t lift.

Kill it at the meet. I always read your stuff. Very inspirational.
And, I was trying to figure out the last line…“sever ass hole”, fuck that sounds painful. Don’t get on Pete’s bad side. No, that can’t be it.
Maybe he meant “be a severe ass hole”, that must be it. Still not good though.
Good thing you lift
I don’t think I know you well enough to say what I wanted to say to that last sentence of yours, just to be funny. heh.

Damn fried gator sounds good. Years ago I would make an annual pilgrimage to NOLA, and consume large amounts of gator, along with crawdads, oysters, etc etc. Could always gain 10-15lbs in a weekend.
Oddly enough a restuarant opened up just by my house that boasts the best gator burgers in the state. I think probably the only gator burgers in the state. Little dive joint, apparenlty run by the former CEO of a large financial firm that went belly up. He must feel guilty for what he did because the food is damn good and ridicously cheap.
And I meant ‘severe ass hole’.

Trips to NOLA huh? Man, gather the family and come down again, give me a lesson in shirted benching in person.
Dixie, some day, shit hopefully next year. Miss the place, have a good friend living down there, keeps PMing me on FB.
Funny NOLA story. This is probably '97 or 98. A group of us that were all meatheads living in Chicago went down together. All of us lifted, don’t think any one of us was under 240. Kept getting asked is we were professional wrestlers, lol. My one friend, actually ended up being the best man in my wedding and my son’s godfather, had been training real hard to get big arms, and damn, they were pretty big. Plus he was wearing tight t-shirts, lol. But he was neglecting diet/cardio, to say the least.
Well, one afternoon we were 1/2 in the bag walking down Bourbon St and a homeless guy, totally in the bag, came up to us asking for change. We shot the shit with him for a bit, then he looks at my buddy, says
“Damn, those are some big arms. But it looks like you need to do some more sit ups.”
This had us rolling for, oh shit, 14 years later and I am still laughing about it…
On the same trip a 320lber, a thick black dude from the west side of Chicago, disappeared, drunk. We got worried about him, went looking for him, only to find him in a conga line with a bunch of trannies. We pulled him away, kicking and screaming “But guys, there are soooo many hot chicks at that bar.”

Youre on fb? No way.
Those are some impressive stories, the sit up comment is just spectacular.
Here’s to hoping you get to come down here again sometime
Take any frustrations out while on the platform. You’ve trained well, your lifts are strong.
After the meet get a good bloat that would make Buddha proud.
Good luck this weekend! I plan on seeing your name highlighted when Nutter sends out the totals.
DF, is that fb comment supposed to imply I am old?
I have better NOLA stories, will post some tomorrow if I have time.
My Iowa neighbor, there are going to be some crazy totals this weekend, or some crazy bombs. Either way it will be a good time:)
630 is a lot in a wheelbarrow, heck it is a lot in a truck.
That’s all I got to say…

Is that what it implied? Nah, though you have my real name, look me up if you desire.
You will be happy to know that benching tonight 1) I worked on being flat footed.
You will not be happy to know that 1) no video - turned out too blurry to see what was goin on, 2) had to stop cause of my shoulder, and 3) I missed (twice) an inch from lockout…dammit. Whats your preferred way of hammering lockout strength?
