Dave,you`re the man buddy!!
No Tim YOU are the man. You’re the one out there doing it. I’m just banging around in the gym.
I know and worked with Max Rep and I am pretty sure he would take Hedge in any type of competition. And for BB knowledge he is very hard to beat on here. I only wish I had his memory.
I still love to train Keith. I’ve been going through Active Release Therapy so the injuries are almost all behind me. Now I can step it up a bit.
Benny Podda
Benny (BTW, Benny was not his real first name he took it on after his father died. His father was Benny) has to be one of the most “colorful” personalities I’ve ever met. Craved attention (imagine that… a bodybuilder who craves attention) and loved to make people laugh.
Ray, Benny, Mike, some of the regulars at Ray’s gym (Muscle Mill) in Redondo Beach, CA and myself would go out to eat after the gym closed at 9:00 p.m.
One night after we ate we were all outside talking. Only a guy named Ross and myself knew the proper way to alleviate our excess testosterone and Ross was doing so by talking to a seemingly willing tenderloin (girl). She was in a convertible and Ross squatted down next to her car and was giving it his best sale pitch.
We had carpooled (a feat in itself) to the restaurant and those guy’s wanted to go. Benny yells out “Ross if you ain’t gonna d**k her, let’s get the f**k outa here”. Ross keeps talking but says just give me a minute. Benny goes up to the car holds one nostril closed and blows a snot on her windshield. The girl freaks but Ross tries to overcome it.
Next thing we heard Benny shout out “Ross call the fire department”! Benny has his pants around his knees and he’s lighting his pubic hair on fire!
The next thing you we heard was the squeal of her tires as she sped out of the parking lot like a bat out of hell! “Call the fire department” became Benny’s knew moniker.
What a character!
