Just got back a little while ago from observing some Jiu Jitsu. Wow, is really the only word that comes to mind. Here's the dude who runs the program.
Our Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu program is run by Rodrigo Vaghi. Rodrigo is a 4th Degree Black Belt, and highest ranking representative, of the Rickson Gracie International Jiu-Jitsu Association. Rodrigo originally began teaching at the Gracie Academy in Brazil, and has since made his home here in St. Louis.
The dude is really down to earth, nice as hell, and polite yet intimidating. I told him my story, lost a bunch a weight, still losing weight, loved Jiu Jitsu, after watching him teach, told him I wanted to sign up if that was cool. He smiled, said heck yeah, and some paper work later, I had my Gi, belt, and a high that I had only experienced before with my clothes off and a woman present
I can't wait to get my ass kicked next week, and it will be kicked. Maybe after I lose this weight, I can find a nice lady to practice my moves on lol.
Also, got home and had a package from Amazon, something I forgot that I had ordered. Any fans of Rob Zombies House a 1000 Corpses and The Devils Rejects?
Captain Spaulding in all his evil clown goodness.
Also, I'm a huge fan of a movie that hasn't even come out yet called Trick R Treat. I am hoping that it comes out this year, but here is the spirit of Halloween, Sam.
Sorry, huge movie nerd. Later guys, and have a great week/weekend.
