WANTED: All T-Nation Members

Obscure fact:
We met while I was dating a loser in high school. I went to his graduation party–there are pictures of me staring at Leland while standing next to the loser.

A year later Lee asked me to go out–first date, Mr Gatti’s Pizza and Candyman the movie…I told him I wanted to go see a scary movie so I could jump in his lap at the scary parts:)

I broke up with him the day after I graduated high school and we got back together 6 months later----we made 10 years together this past Christmas Eve!!! He’s my best friend and my lover! He rocks! Our wedding lasted 2 weeks—that’s what I get for marrying an Italian-Coonass!!!

Lesse. 2 black belts, wrestling coach in an inner-city school, competed in my first triathlon this last year, do long distance biking on a racing recumbent bike. Ummmm, a couple things I don’t normally share: I used to be 315 pounds before I discovered T-Nation, and I’m polyamorous.


Here’s a pic of me taken with Flex Wheeler from about two years ago from a body building show where he was signing his book. The size difference between us is pretty obvious, huh?

I was about 170-175 in that pic. I’m about 200-205 now. Ronnie Coleman was there as well. The man is just plan huge! The t-shirt he was wearing looked like he just cut a hole in a tablecloth.

Random facts about me:

  • I like Star Wars…a lot.
  • I hate flip-flops and think they should be banned as footwear.

From 145 to 171 in two years, never set foot in a commercial gym, i workout at home.

favorite colour: blue
favorite food: chicken pizza


Me in Vegas ^ I’m lookin for the Balla Bros…u know who I am and I’m comin up behind ya…G


Here I am in the middle with my two brothers at my younger brothers wedding.

Not too interesting, but:

-I give the greatest best man speach you you ever heard.

-I can stick my tongue in my nose

-I never dance unless I’m drunk. Seriously, when I’m dancing, it’s time to take my keys.

-1st degree black belt American karate/Kicboxing

-I have bitten a dog

-I’m not just a steely eyed firefighter, I’m also a damn good residential home inspector.

-My favorite movie is Lonesome Dove.


And I could totally kick Chuck Norris’s ass!!


This is me and one of my older brothers. I’m showing him how to set up the bindings on a snowboard.

Obscure fact- I can’t resist the urge to tickle snowboards. Makes me giggle like the Pilsbury Doughboy.

Here are a couple obscure ones. I doubt anyone on here races go karts. This is the only reason I don’t want to get any bigger, I can barely fit in as it is![/quote]

I do a little Kart racing myself. Here are a couple of pics from my latest. Had a little issue with the wall. (Both me and the kart are still under repair)

No way! I freakin love that shirt! Besides, it’s not something I wear around to the mall or anything. That photo was taken just after kicking some butt in a 45 mile bike race - still in my gear.
