..."I'm a man of wealth and taste
I've been around for long, long years I've stolen many a man's soul and faith."

I imagine that's an easy one to place.

Well, chalk one up for a total miss. Not at all what I pictured in my mind's eye. Thanks for the pic. Mine is all over the cycling forum, if you haven't seen it yet.

PS: Always a girl on your arm?

Certainly not what I pictured either, but it is really great to place a face with the name. [img]smile.gif[/img]

You certainly look pretty stout. Knowing your background in martial arts and seeing you for the first time, I can say quite confidently that I would never want to tangle with you!

Just wish I didn't have to crop that pic and you could've seen the 2 girls on my right [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Too bad I had to crop it because in the pic we're standing in front of a huge tree on a temple grounds atop a mountain we hiked up in Japan last month.

I'll post a pic exposing more flesh when its warmer and I'm all ripped & shredded

So what brought you to Japan? Can you speak it fluently? I have always had an appreciation for Japanese film. Especially (not surprisingly) Akira Kurosawa! I think I have seen just about every film he has ever made.

?#1: My hometown has a sister city in Japan so for years I was in that organization and did a homestay yrs ago, then upon graduating Univ. I just decided to try living in another country so took a shot.

?#2: nihongo ga dekimasu!日本語ができるぜ！(set your browser to view Jpn to see that, which translate means "you bet your ass I speak Jpn")living there and being the only foreigner in my work place improved my level REAL quick.

By the way, if I posted a pic of me next to my siblings I'd look tiny. 3 older brothers all 6'4" (I'm 6'1), so you know who got his ass kicked in backyard tackle football everyday, and why I learned to fight .

all about adapting to the environment.

No, but when my hair was a bit longer I used to get Jean Claude god-Damme often.

In Japan I've been told I look like MMA fighter Bas Rutten when my head is shaved. see last wks T-rag. Personally I don't think so but....
