Hey Buddy - I'm at Star City most Friday nights extracting cash from the fishes at 200NL tables.

P.S Manly are crap - Go the Sharks

I got married at a Tokyo hotel and there happened to be a bunch of PRIDE fighters there.

I met Fedor and he took a picture with me and my wife. Pretty cool.

By the way, I am a HUGE MMA fan, too. I do some translating for Sherdog sometimes and get free media passes to events.

I can't wait for the new "pride", DREAM to start up next month.
