Thanks.  My contacts were pretty dried out... I had been out all day then hit the gym then drove 2 hours to tampa.  After sitting in the theater from 6 til 11;30, I was pretty sleepy as well.  Hence the red eye.

I found Dan first, introduced myself.  He took me backstage, then onstage, where Ron and Bob were standing.   Ron was taking pics of Toney with the trophy.  DH was collecting his checks right then, I believe.

I shake Ron's hand, tell him I've heard he has a website about bodybuilding...

Dan introduces me.  Bob asks if I'm ready for the beatdown.  I ask him to aim his punches at my gut, as I want to have an unbroken face for Ron's camera.  Ron finishes taking Toney's pics and we take a few pics.  Bob chatted about the stay in tampa, Ron chatted a bit about anything and everything.

Yeah, I really have no reason to lie about height.  I thought both Bob and Ron were pretty tall.  Bob's built like a brick shithouse.  Huge in person.  I had my knees bent a tad in that pic too, in case one of them actually decided to bump me for the pic, I didn't want to fall on my ass :)

I tired eating good for the weekend. They had a great menu at the hotel, clean, no salt, butter, excellent for the competitors.  And  I did great Friday, for breakfast, lunch and dinner until late evening, when Bob Chick, Dan Solomon, and others decided to get some dessert. I couldn't help it. The Chocolate Lava cake was just too good. I blame Bob!

As for the bodybuilding.com Tiger Woods polo shirt, it looked good, and I take pics for them too (you will see my pics from this weekend there).  But I also wore  an American Bodybuilding shirt, a Muscletech shirt, and a BSN shirt too.  I guess I should get some Getbig shirts done...
 
As for 240, hell, I respect the people who actualyl come to support an expo and contest, unless the ones who complain all of the time. Rob drove the two hours to come down, meet people, and actually introduce himself, whereas others hide. 

I never understand why some of you think you need to be a bodybuilder to be a fan or come to an expo or show? Strange. Never see that in baseball, football, basketball or any other sport.

Why would you attend a show, game or anything related to a sport/passion of yours, that you do NOT like?
You don't necessarily need to look like a BBer, but it helps- especially with the guys here!

On a serious note, you sound like an ideal candidate for a variant of Intermittent fasting. Instead of slavishly eating tiny portions of the kind of shit farmyard animals eat all day...you fast for 16-18 hours of the day and then have an eating window where you can pretty much eat as you like (although, strictly speaking, some adherence to healthy eating is desirable).

 You're a big guy and you like to eat. This way you can look forward to a nice big meal -it makes the hunger fine as you know you got some good shit coming.

Obviously, some are dead against it, but it's not actually that dissimilar to how many hunter-gatherers eat and it gives your digestive apparatus a break.

Obviously, some are dead against it, but it's not actually that dissimilar to how many hunter-gatherers eat and it gives your digestive apparatus a break.

Dead on True Grit. We try to fight the normal urges of eating everything in sight at times, but that's how we managed to stay alive thousands of years ago. I know the ultimate diet technique is many small meals spaced throughout the day, but I am convinced we are not programmed to eat like that.

I had to go on an intermittent fast some years ago due to travel considerations. When I got back from the trip, I was shocked at how lean I got in such a short time.

And 240, cool of you to meet Ron and Chick in person.

nah, i hit the gym on the way to tampa and showered there... put in gel while my hair was wet after shampooing, then rode in AC in car for 3 hours, and it all just fell together in clumps.  So it split up there.  I didn't have blow dryer, didn't have gel (it was in trunk with gym clothes) so I just had to deal with the bad hair day, hence the shine up top.

I seriously fear the day I have to shave it.  My dad shaves it, my brother shaves it.  I'm fighting.  Obviously the hairline is coming back, but no bald spot, and yeah, starting to thin a bit up top.  This it how it'll usually look, not all gelled down as it was at the Tampa pro

I've had a huge forehead my whole life.  Makes me look like I'm receding and the last couple years it has a bit in the corners.  I don't think I'll be bald though.  And I keep considering transplantation but I doubt I'll do it until a cool 8 grand is merely change to me.

Idk.  So far I like every year better than the last.  But I had a shitty childhood so that's inevitable.  I think I'll like being 30.

my brother turned 30 today.  I called and wished him happy birthday.  He doesn't lift, smokes, works hard labor... sounded 20 years older than me.

Getting old is certainly easy.  At 32, it's easy to make money, it's easy to get girls (well, when single), it's easy to do what you want to do.  At 22, it was a lot harder.

You gotta deal with things like going bald and watching cholesterol and checking lumps, etc... but yeah, if you take care of yourself and plan long-term, things are way easier as you age.

That's too bad for him.. I think 30 has a LOT to offer.  You're still young enough to do crazy shit sometimes but you're also smart enough to keep your ducks in a row.

Judging by how much better being 24 is than being 19 or 20 I can only imagine how things might be at 28, 35, 45.

Being 45 in good health with a nice pile of $... probably a very good spot to be.  You can snag the gold diggin' 18 year olds just as easily as the 34 year olf MILFs, you're set financially, you are wise...

I tired eating good for the weekend. They had a great menu at the hotel, clean, no salt, butter, excellent for the competitors.  And  I did great Friday, for breakfast, lunch and dinner until late evening, when Bob Chick, Dan Solomon, and others decided to get some dessert. I couldn't help it. The Chocolate Lava cake was just too good. I blame Bob!

As for the bodybuilding.com Tiger Woods polo shirt, it looked good, and I take pics for them too (you will see my pics from this weekend there).  But I also wore  an American Bodybuilding shirt, a Muscletech shirt, and a BSN shirt too.  I guess I should get some Getbig shirts done...
 
As for 240, hell, I respect the people who actualyl come to support an expo and contest, unless the ones who complain all of the time. Rob drove the two hours to come down, meet people, and actually introduce himself, whereas others hide. 

I never understand why some of you think you need to be a bodybuilder to be a fan or come to an expo or show? Strange. Never see that in baseball, football, basketball or any other sport.



Great point here Ron about NON hardcore bodybuilders going to bodybuilding type expos and events.
I enjoy going to Minor Lague Baseball games a few times a yr. I have not played since little league and sucked even then hehe. Same with music , I have no musical talent and the only instrumnet I can play is "the butt trumpet", but I still love hearing music and going to concerts.
The Arnold weekend is the one BIG exception to this rule. People from all walks of life go the expo and various events at the Arnold. This to me is "proof" that bodybuilding can draw a good crowd.

At least you have an answer for your baldness. I don't. Every time someone tells me "It's on your moms fathers side" or "Your dad..." etc...

...not in my case. Entire family has hair. My grandfather, at 80, is thin but currently has more hair than me!!! >:(

Once I started shaving it a year ago, however, I thought 'Why didn't I do this sooner?!?!'

i believe that hairline told me 'peace out' a year or two back.

but I added 15-20 pounds since this (2006?) pic, so at least I look a little scarier with a buzz cut.

I was surprised to learn so many grownups use it.  I thought it was a kids game initially.

yeah, he scores off the charts in math & logic... he creates these insanely complex above ground, underwater cities... skyscrapers... intricate things that I can't come near.
