about me
Big guy who used to be a much bigger guy, trying to get to be a smaller big guy. But at 6'6", I will never be a small guy...

Towels...
You heard me. I am thinking about towels.
You see, When I was 515 pounds, I had a favorite towel. It is (for it still exists) a bath sheet 66"x60" given to me by a lovely couple who don't speak to me anymore. Oh well...
As I ...

I faced the current 3-time US Heavyweight champion
I faced the 5-time US Lightweight and 2004 World Lightweight Champion
I faced the 2006 and 2007 Georgia...

Okay... wish me luck!
(blog entry)
And let's hope I don't get crushed by younger, faster, stronger sumotori!
<sigh> Once more into the fray!
Things are going very well at present...
(blog entry)
I am not alone...
Now, that may seem hard for some of you to understand (I ALWAYS have people around me [I suspect it to be the remnants of my gravitational pull from my huge mo-fo days]), but I am thoroughly pleased with things right now.
I...

It's a deep burn... So DEEP!

I did my FIRST Sumo preparation work-out last night...
Ouch, ouch, ouch...
My thighs are STILL killing me, and I even saw my physical therapist this morning. I am so very sore. But, I got a good workout in for my lower body, and the upper ...

As I was saying... This was my favorite towel as a fat guy because I could actually wrap it all the way around me and THAT was how I would dry off... Passively. I would just sit there at the computer or whilst watching SportsCenter and let the moisture...

I faced one of the current Japanese university Champs
I faced the current Samoan champ
I lost them all.
I wasn't the heaviest (at least 4 dudes outweighed me, and a few by 100 pounds or more), but I was the tal...

My thighs are STILL killing me, and I even saw my physical therapist this morning. I am so very sore. But, I got a good workout in for my lower body, and the upper body got a nice few sets as well.
