Thanks, Rip!

Just read your article about the blind leading the willing. Obviously, you put a lot of your time into enlightening us ignorant folk, and I am sure I'm speaking for most everyone who reads the boards and your articles, it's very much appreciated.

As a teacher, I often struggle with separating what I want from the experience of teaching from what the students actually need. Thus, you serve as an excellent role model for myself, not only for your coherent, detailed, and enjoyable to read writing style, but also your willingness to take time out of your very busy schedule and help others out who seek knowledge in the area of fitness (and life in general, in some cases). For this, I really want to thank you again.

I am trying to plan a trip to America for one of your seminars (also, I'm using Vegas as an excuse to get my gf interested). I look forward to meeting "the MAN" someday.

I don't know, jab, I may be a racist: http://www.startingstrength.com/reso...t=17602&page=5

And me being a racist would make everything else irrelevant. But thanks for the kind words before you decide to take them back.

Most people give you enough reasons for you to dislike them regardless of race.

I am a white dude teaching English over here (and trying to pick up on hot Japanese girls who tend to be kinkier than fuck).

Well, they do have the weirdest porn on the planet.

So now you're saying Japanese people are genetically predisposed to making weird porn?

You xenophobic bastard.

[Mark Rippetoe]

And thank GOD for them.

I live in the heart of the porn district, so I see the girls who make this stuff constantly (try a hot girl every 2 or 3 min on the street). Could you believe that I'd need a special visa (entertainment visa, teacher's visa won't cut it) in order to be in one of those movies (legally)?

I'm still waiting to see some voyeurism video being shot on the street around here.

They certainly have a thing for bukkake on subways.
