construction is a bad field to be in right now. i've got other ways of making ends meet but it's frustrating because carpentry is really an all or nothing trade. either the market is booming and they want you to work overtime all the time, or the market sucks and there's hardly any work at all. so earlier this year, i was going crazy, working...

3rd place Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Blue belts, absolute division.
the one kid who beat me got a bye in the first round, was 6'7" tall and outweighed me by 46lbs. He still didn't get any points or submissions on me. i almost won, but he ended up in my half guard at the end and they gave him a decision...

I just saw Cinderella Man with Russell Crowe. that was an awesome movie and russell crowe is a good actor, he just needs to learn to shut the fuck up. that movie was based on the true story of james braddock, a heavyweight boxer from new jersey who made a huge comeback during the depression when everyone said he was washed up. unlike rocky, the...

Yeah, it was cool. I didn't get the name of it. It was neat because the guy was pretty big but able to do all these tricks.
I'm most definitely going to be moving back here. I feel like a bit of a hypocrite because I was talking the place down so much last year. But I love it here and know so many people etc etc. I think as long as I don't surround myself PNW ego-fuckwits I'll get along just fine.
I'm going to try find a bit of work under the table when I'm back from the States so I can support myself until the end of my holiday visa in October. And also get the ball rolling on permanent residency. Which takes years.

HAHA I had no idea about DIo thats some crazyness.
so, a month or two ago, i had been going to a bando school to work on my kickboxing for MMA fights. i wasn't paying and bando is similar enough to muay thai that you can kind of use it for mma if the class is mostly drills and sparring. it was kind of cool for a little while, but i don't think i was...

i had to stop for nearly 2 years due to a knee injury so only just got back inot it, and my knees still dont want to behave, but yeah back into it hardcore. i know no point being healthy if you dont excersise...plus muscles are hot.I have a lot to learn though. Anyway that guy does sound a douche. working out with a sandbag?
i think I'm becoming the new owner of the MMA group. Drama is leaving the site and he selected me to be the new owner and everyone there seems to support the decision. so, wish Drama well if you haven't, and if you're interested join the group.
That said, it's hard to pick a winner for the Griffin vs Jackson fight coming up. I like...

is that kind of like "beware of geeks bearing gifts?" 
Funny story from last week.... I went to this club in Providence called AS220. It's a pretty cool space for DIY punk shows. sometimes they have artsy indie rock crap, for a bunch of RISD kids but i just don't go on those nights. other than that it's got a nice bar and awesome Mexican food. I like it because it's a place for DIY...

I'm on antibiotics for an infected toe. But I went straight into free weights when maybe I should warm up on the machines for a few weeks.

wow its good to know that I'm not the only one who can mess up a conversation by being in a shitty mood 
What are you lifting? Trying to develop you upper or lower body mostly? Are you trying any break training to condition your hands and legs to the blows you have to give in MMA?

the song + the intro from rambo, + don frye kicking the shit out of people in his american flag shorts = pure genius.

Nah, I'd say I'm another 6 months off from the tattoo. Everything I'm earning is going towards my trip to Canada in 5 weeks. I'd say just after Christmas.

hey joe
the bad was made using just a cheap army carry bag
you know the ones with a draw string at one end?
then just get a big bag of sand, weighing scales, tape and sandwich bags
the last thing you wanna do is just put a 50lb bag of sand into another bag because if the big internal bag splits your fucked
what i did was weigh out 5lbs of sand at a time
pour it into a sandwich bag, double it up and then tape it up tight with masking tape
then you can fill the bag up to your desired weight and add and subtract how you want
if one 5lb bag splits it aint the end of the world
to finish you just tape the end up fucking tight
you will have to retighten and retape it every couple of weeks after throwing it around but it works out alot cheaper then the sandbag trainign bags there selling on the internet
i have probably done a crap job at describing it so heres a picture if its anymore help
