Chem, Congrats to you and your dad from me also. I actually have not bought a magazine since the early 80's so I can't figure out who you and your dad are, but I probably know you or know of you both. Once in a while I'll skim through one or more while they are on the news-stand.
I have to say that it's great to talk to some sensible people here who know and understand the sport of bodybuilding and what it takes to get on that stage.
Thanks, guys. And you lady contributors too!
Moose, you are correct on the Gold's Gym answer, but I got no idea of who on that list is a champion bicycler. My best guess would be Tarleton who is one of the guys who served some time in prison. Another hell of a good guy in my estimation who took the wrong turn back then. Anyone know how Jim is doing today?
And as far as "who has passed away", I have no idea but my GUESS would be Brian. Please let me know in your next post.
Regarding fighting with Joe over picture rights ..... I recall Robby's argument over Joe's use of his photo claiming Robby's body was actually his (or something similar to that). Is that the argument you are referring to?
We visited Joe's office a couple of time and had an enjoyable visit. Even helped him decide on the photo to use on the cover for the next issue. Both my nephews did a few cover shots and were featured in the magazine more than a couple of times.
WEB, Correct on the Atwood cartoon critter. Thanks for participating.
