Regarding Lou Schuler and MadTitan’s cover: I know Lou pretty well from the internet; in fact, I know Lou about as well as I know Professor X or nephorm or any other regular on T-Nation. Better, really. I would be absolutely stunned if the man turned MadTitan down for any sort of racial reason. The excuse MadTitan is writing about IS really lame, so I would bet quite a bit that MadTitan was just too big for Men’s Health or that someone higher up the MH chain told Lou to choose someone else.
I think I might ask Lou to chime in on this when I can.[/quote]
I don’t think it was racism either like i said earlier they used a black guy who had a lighter skin tone and it does go with what lou told about my skin tone. The reason you gave (me being too big) has been the reason i have been told by my friends. However, at 5’9 179 I’m really not big at all.
I thought of another useless fact about me. I spell at about a fourth grade level. Even my one sentence posts consisting of four and five letter words need to be run through a spell checker. That part of my brain just doesn’t work.
However, I am excellent at spelling Russian words.

WARNING - THE FOLLOWING IS R RATED!!!
Okay, I had to do some research but here are some personal insults: (the "y"s are pronounced like the y in your, not like a long i sound)
Yobany stos - f–k
Yob materi vashi! - I f----d all your mothers
There are also some very interesting insults:
Pizda ti jopoglazaya - You are a vagina with eyes on your ass
Ne ssi v kompot, tam povor nogi moet - Don’t piss in the bowl of punch, the cook is washing his legs in it. (don’t chicken out)
And a good one for the T-Nation forums:
Perestan’ mne jabat’ mozgi svojimi voprosami - stop f-----g my brain with your questions
Here is one Nate Dogg could use:
Jebat moi lisiy cherep - F–k my bald skull
There, that is enough fun for one day.

Oh, why stop?!
Here are a few of my favorites:
T’i malenkaya gavyochka =you little shithead
Yob tvayu mat’ = go fuck your mother
Yah tebye dam po-yaitsam yesli t’i budyish menye porot’ khuinu = I’ll kick your ass if give me any of your shit. (a rather figurative translation, but they’ll get the idea).
I’ve forgotten how to say “I am not a panty sniffer”, but I’m sure it’ll come back to me.

This cracked me up. I hardly ever post but I do peruse the site often and have thoroughly enjoyed this thread and the shoe one with Eliteballa.
I would post a picture but:
1-I don’t know how
2-I am hideous
3-I don’t possess any “obscure” facts.

Here is me lifting in Iraq at about 2 a.m. on a day off. I think that this is about 350+ lbs. I really don’t remember for sure so don’t even ask. It’s been a while now. I was, and still am, training in the powerlifter style. My equipment is now exclusively from EliteFTS. It’s expensive, and top notch. It’s so worth the $$$!! By the way, if you don’t support the troops getting their asses shot off and blown up, then fuck you!

I’ve told no one except T-Nation that I’m an aspiring screenwriter
-
Celebrities I get compared to: Arnold, Ben Affleck, Jon Favreau.
Oddly enough, my goals are somewhat similar to these men. I want to look great with my shirt off like Arnold, I want to get laid like Ben Affleck and young Arnold, and I want to write a successful screenplay like Jon Favreau.
-If you watched the Pope’s last hours and funeral on FOX or MSNBC this past spring, you may have heard myself or my mother doing simultaneous interpreting.
RIP John Paul II.
- Claudia Schiffer and Anna Nicole Smith used to live in my building.
-I also was once a pro wrestler

Va bennissimo. Spero che anche Italiano e una lingua che tu parli.
Parlando di donne, non ce una lingua piu bella e melodica.
Ive noticed that some languages are better at describing certain things than others.
For example…
Lets take the butterfly.
In english it sounds nice…butterfly.
In french also…papillon pronounced papion…very soft.
In Italian…farfalla. Just lovely.
In Russian Babochka…also pleasant.
Even Japanese it’s quite nice…chouchou or batafurai.
In German however we have the…schmetterling. Sounds like a new type of machine gun.
Just for fun.
The only other language I speak is “Navy”.
Picked it up in my youth and became fluent in it while working on a 73 Chevy van with a 307 V-8 shoved in an engine compartment designed for a six. Changing the spark plugs took hours and I always broke at least one porcelain.
I later perfected it when I owned a '63 MGB. Fun car, but what a nightmare. To this day British engineering makes the hair on the back of my neck stand up. You know, Lucas electrics (the Prince of Darkness) dual carbs and two six volt positive ground batteries. This is why I don’t own any British bikes (although I lust after the Brough Superior SS100).

Ha ha ha! That’s so wierd, my wife and I (she speaks a bunch of languages) have often played this game of comparing words, and our classic example to use with friends is butterfly. For some reason, it is completely different in every language we know of. We also noted how nice it sounds in all of them, but we never knew how it was said in German! Thanks for that, at last I’ll be able to show her that T-Nation is useful for something after all
Just to add to the list:
In Spanish: mariposa
In Portuguese: borboleta, very bouncy if pronounced with a Brazilian accent, something like booh-boo-LE-tah, with the h in booh pronounced like the hissing ch sound in German.
In Dutch: vlinder, I don’t like it, it sounds like the name of the goalkeeper on some obscure eastern European soccer team.
Sonny, you look just like a “Sonny”, you fit your name perfectly.
An italian gladiator? hmmmm…
Some random things about me…
#1. I close my eyes when I brush my teeth.
#2. I like to mix all my food together.
#3. I have a religion degree from a Souther Baptist University yet am a die-hard New Englander…
#4. I have lived in several Asian countries and can speak a few different languages.
#5. I have had a few shoulder surgeries and played D1 Softball.
#6. I often get mistaken for a high school student.
This is what I have done since moving to The Nation. Thank you all for your advice and support. On to bigger and better…
