It was a pleasure to meet and lift with Dave. A very unassuming guy. You would never know by his modesty that he was one of the best.

thanks guys.

In all fairness, al, I am not sure my detention caused us to miss the plane. It merely set us a little further behind than we already were.

Heavy lift Championships were a blast. The Atomic Athletic picnic was fun, and a cool venue. And the trip was a hoot (though we struggled for a while trying to get home-but that is another story)

Ughh. I just spent like 15 minutes looking for that link so I could post it.

Here is the problem with that-for someone old fashioned like me. I enjoy reading stuff on the internet. I do. But it is not the same as sitting in my easy chair of an evening with a stiff drink and my paper copy of a publication. That is why I dropped milo. I was not about to pay the same price for a publication to read it online that I was already paying to have my published copies on the shelf. I still have all those-I own them and can reference them at any time. I still have most of my old copies of Clark’s newsletter, and reference those fom time to time as well. So, for better or worse, while I will read the internet regularly, I am not going to give up my paper copies of literature. I still have a folder with all my copies of “The Avil” and “The Braemar Tablet” (I think that was what it was called) by T VanV as well

Yeah, I was disappointed to see that as well. One of the only good strength mags out there

OK-here is what I found. Consider them unofficial because they are coming from me and from something other than the official USAWA record list, but I thought I’d give you an idea
