I know that NJ is quite a trip from Chicago but I sure wish I could meet you two at the Classic. Maybe you can swing by Greysteel gym in Farmington, Mi. Maybe, we will go to NJ someday and have a beer or better share a single malt straight scotch.

Yep, if you ever have plans to come to NJ, let me know. Or I might hop on the motorcycle and take a ride out to Michigan some day.

The hand specialist showed me the x-ray pointing out two bone spurs at the base of my left thumb. At least now I know why it hurts. It won't stop me from lifting but it will be an annoyance. I may get cortizone shots starting in November.

Cortisone weakens the bones. A word to the wise.

Thanks for the warning.

I guess I won't get a stuffed dinosaur this classic or any classic. As much as I've tried I cannot do a straight bar squat. As you can see I can do squats are fairly heavy weights as long as I can do them with a safety bar. It would make sense for the classic to allow the safety bar but then it's a free country and despite this I enjoy going. Onto approx. 370+/- for Dead and 125-130 for Press.

[Mr. Bingley]

can't wait for the 370 video!!

Light day as I prepare for this Saturday's USSF meet.
