"Group Home" and he and 3 other "Special Persons" moved in.

Being awarded my Purple Belt in Brasil at Gracie Humaita.
Some of you will recognize just what an honor that is for an American.
That is Rolker Gracie and Vitor Terra.  Vitor Terra is one of my best friends and BJJ Professors.
He is a 9 Time Rio BJJ Champion among many other high achievements.  His matches are worth
watching on the internet.

What is amazing about this picture is just how many Black Belts are training in the same class.

Dear Las Vegas,
  I wanted to thank you once again for your time and patience in attempting to teach me
how to post pictures here on this thread.
  I have an appointment with my Computer Guy Friday at 8:00 am to teach me how to post
pictures which don't fit, from my phone, etc.
  Again, thanks to you and everyone else.
  Initially, I thought I should send some photos of different things just to ensure that you guys
finally believe that this is me and not a "gimmick."
  I will be happy to post photos of Craig, Dorian and all the others I have once I learn a bit more
as to how this all works.

You can add more than one image to a post.

If you look to the right of the little "attachments" button, you'll see a link that says "more attachments" and it allows you to add up to 4 images at a time.

I am building a 1963 Corvette Pro Street

That is crazy nice, man.  

Did your father always want a Bentley?

[HarleyBreite]

Dear TuHolmes,
  Thank you.  I was unaware you could post more than 1 picture at a time.
  I wasn't trying to add pages which I have inferred is some sort of bragging point in that
having more pages is equal to having a better thread.  I could be wrong, it was just my own
inference.
  Still learning the argot and ways of GetBiggers.

 The Vette or the Bentley?

Did your father always want a Bentley?

  My Dad, whose story I told on this thread or the one about my client killing his lover with a 25 pound dumbbell, came to this country at age
13 not even knowing the language and grew up very poor.
  He worked all his life for his family and never felt the need to acquire material things for himself.  But, as a kid, he would sometimes say that if
he ever won the lottery, he would buy himself a Bentley.
  When he turned 70 years old, I had it waiting for him at the bottom of the driveway with a "Happy Birthday Pop" banner in the window.
  It was probably the best day of MY life seeing him cry tears of joy not in receiving the car itself, but finally having to feel comfortable that his son
was ok and wouldn't starve or be poor like he was.

Just trying to help.

Harley, look back in the thread and you'll see I put up directions for both of those (file too large problem and email folder problem).

Any time you want to get walked through either problem, though, just say so.  It's only a couple steps, like what you did today.

That is really something to hear, Harley.  That is such a great story and what a memory it must be.

Hey Guys,
  I thought I should try to educate myself a bit with some of the more common GetBig topics so I watched a bit of a video
with some guy named Rich Piana and another fellow named Viking whose face is quite filled with tattoos. 
  Are these guys heroes on GetBig?
  I don't like to judge anybody but they are a little hard to watch, even for me.
  His girlfriend and wonderful implants but for me, the idea of having to wear eye liner to hit that, just makes me
want to walk away.
  Again, I am not being judgmental, I just didn't know if you guys support Rich Piana the way you do some other folks.

His act is a big running joke on here, Harley.

[HarleyBreite]

Then I can candidly say, Wow, what a relief.

[Las Vegas]

He's probably OK IRL, but he's so extreme with everything that people like to post his videos and discuss them (usually about the things he's doing with the filler material and other crazy shit).
