Is Minister Lumpsford back on top a good thing for the sport/industry?

[mops]

Guy was/is an artist. Body and mind. An inspiration to the youths.

I remember when Benfatto got busted at Australian customs in 2006 with 926 diazepam tablets and 29 Ritalin pills.

They said he was delirious too and behaved bizarrely.

It was all downhill after that.

It was for a friend.

Isn't that part of being an artist?

[Humble Narcissist]

I wouldn't say Sergio and Arnold were taking bodybuilding downhill.

[Brenda Steunbeer]

Now seriously. Benfatto had the body every man would like to have, bodybuilder or not. It was flawless. Not to adress the posing skills, amazing also.

What kind of half empty cup gimmick dares to criticize this kind of excellency? Maybe he went to affeman university, where they learn that Lee Haney had a swimmer body...

He was a midget. No sane man wants to be 5 ft 6 or 167.5 cm in "height".

Not much he could do about that.

You just know he is very eccentric (to use a positive word for bat shit crazy)

Fans and observers complain of today's bodybuilders, they are ugly and they are so drug laden it's disgusting. Many of the old timers were no better, bodybuilding drugs but rec drugs too. Benfatto doing drugs and smuggling Valium to probably pay for his plane ticket too, what other reason to bring so many Valiums. Tony-something, the Aus promoter, said Benfatto was running around the venue in his posing trunks acting strange, Tony was pissed it seemed. Before Serge Numbret died promoters complained about him demanding lots of bb drugs whereever he went on seminars in Europe, the promoter was to arrange it. I saw some on forums who supposedly knew of the circumstances surrounding his death intimate he died of insulin overdose. A old golden age man using insulin for bodybuilding. I don't have a problem with it per se, just saying.

Among other languages, I speak French fluently (gay, I know.) You should have read the pseudo-deep spiritual -- and aneurysm inducing --  crap he used to write on French bb forums circa 2005.

Endless verborrhea-ridden posts about cosmic/galactic enlightenment through infinite space and time (or some shit.)

IIRC Benfatto was even worse. Think of Kai Greene with a touch of 'tism.

Bien sur. Merci.

Here in Portugal you can buy 25 for 2€, if you are a regular at the pharmacy.

He is a shorter version of Bob Paris.

[Zillotch]

Benfatto is definitely among the most aesthetic of all time

for sure.

benfatto had a unique, exaggerated aesthetic - one of a kind.

big hair, tho.. made him look like a bobble head onstage at times

[SF1900]

Bhanks > Benfatto

Yes in the UK or Portugal, but may be different in Australia? Incidentally I would desperately have needed some Valiums a while back, long story. There are basically no Valiums to be had easily here, almost none on the black market, what there is is Xalol, which is Serbian Xanax made by ICN Galenika, the ones who make those testosterones. But junkies claim they have tested positive for fentanyl after taking those, saying there are a lot of fakes around, and despite them being plentiful I have no connects now. I'm not so sure about that story but that's what they say. Seriously, a couple of months back I would have paid 10 British pounds for one of those. Even now, not because I want to get high but there was an acute "situation"
Lots of people here would prefer Valium specifically but they only have access to the Xanax or they use these dangerous research chemical designer benzos out of China. This class of drugs is really shitty and using these daily for fun will fuck up your life, and there isn't really a fun "high" either, more like a "low." But in certain situations they are a gift from god.

You need a connection in the UK or Portugal then. 

[Van_Bilderass]

Yes but then there is customs

[illuminati]

Yes but then there is customs

Do they check every letter ?

[Van_Bilderass]

Do they check every letter ?

No they don't but I've had a bunch of packages from the UK opened, all legal, and then sometimes they have stolen part of the contents. No letter, no explanation, nothing, sometimes they don't even bother taping the package shut, they apparently aren't accountable to no one. I read the police here have new domestic regulations where they are allowed to check more mail for drugs. Supposedly they even often open regular looking thin envelopes now, like a simple letter, so now drug dealers somehow hide drugs in open magazines or whatever with a stamp on, I don't know exactly, but read something like that lol. I don't buy illegal contraband on the net so it doesn't affect me, however from what I've seen UK seems like a dope and steroid and PED heaven for those so inclined. I know a couple of dealers and users who get their roids from there, it's all apparently pretty open, one guy said he tried to order but you had to show you were a "serious lifter or competitor" and make a profile with pics to be allowed to order

Damn, yes that's very strict going !!
Yeah it's fairly lax over here, thankfully.
