Have a great time at the Arnold Tom. Take lots of pictures of the Expo for me . I love seeing all the people at those things......
We are leaving any lady friends at home and one of my best friends and I will be at the San Fran. Also Roger [ the over 50 currant Mr. Cal will ] will probally meet us up there with his wife. The guy I will be with is getting ready for the Mr. Sacramento in Nov. He is currantly bulked to 300 . He trains using DC' methods. [ he is part italion as well , but he is half german . I forgive him for that part ,because he is one the greatest guys that know......LOL ....known him most of my life.] I really hope that we can sit down for dinner or something before the show and maybe hang out during the pre judging. Your friend sounds great.[ very knowlegable and cool] I can't wait to meet him as well .Just be prepared ,I will buy dinner , but I will also being asking alot of questions.lol! I feel alittle out of the loop . It has been 8 years since I was really in this scene. He and I shouldn't be hard to miss. He is 300 like I said, and I am sitting at a fat and happy 270 or so .[ not too bad considering I have been gear free for 8 plus years and have only trained on and off for maybe three years total during that time] Tom , I am really looking foreward to this show and meeting you and your friend. I hope that it will motivate me to give it one last good run before hanging up the old spurs........Take care ......and if you see Markus 's , Ronnie 's .Trevor Smith's , or the lastest Battle for the O training tapes please pick them up for me . Or anything else that looks cool .....I can send you out he money to the show or just pay you at the San Fran . I am a fan and I just love the shit. I trust that you will pick me up whatever looks cool . And anything else that lmight find interesting pick that up as well . I trust your judgement.I am good for the money T and I will throw in some extra dough for your time and having to carry that crap. Thanks bro, then I can get the stuff at the San Fran the next week.
