I liked Kamali back then. Guy actually brought some personality to the sport.
Me, too. I loved it when he got all mad and started raving about buck-toothed jackasses

The thing is, he's really nice in individual correspondence. I don't think I ever e-mailed him
even though I wanted to inquire about some used posing trunks, no homo, but I do remember posting a message at his site or something :?: He wrote back and seemed genuinely cool.
And like you said, he brought a little personality to the table. After a time, no matter how much you enjoy lifting and/or are amazed by how freaky some of those fuckers get, the endeavor gets BORING. It was fun to see Lee Priest bicker with Bob Chick, Tom Prince blow his top, Nasser get mad and egg on "Team Nasser" to represent him on Getbig against the "pumpkinheads" ... LOL. Some funny shit.
