WrestlingRasta Posted July 12, 2023 Share Posted July 12, 2023 South Florida, I go outside pretty much every morning and it’s like walking into a sauna. And to think it’s been like that every year I’ve lived here. Maybe it’s just hot down here 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will say I cut the grass in three parts during the summer: Front right at 6:30am Saturday; front left at about 7:00pm, and then the back 6:30 the next morning. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We felt pretty bad for the road workers and the roofers. But then I went inside one of the buildings and there was no breeze, it was just still air, oppresively hot. And the dry wallers had to work in that. So I had sympathy for them too. mspart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mspart Posted July 12, 2023 Share Posted July 12, 2023 I wrestled in WA and no I did not have a lot of success. I never went to State. In 10th grade I just missed by one match going to State. I should have won that match but my head wasn't in it. 11 grade I got Russian Flu just before the tourney time. 12 grade I hyperextended my elbow Spraining it badly and that ended my season. I feel I was on a path to go to State that year, but was injured. My elbow still does not straighten out after all these years. Never wrestled college but did win one season of Intramural Wrestling. Also I participated in various old man wrestling tourneys including 3 US Veterans Championships. So I kept my hand in it but never did very good. I just love the sport but was never super good at it. I was adequate enough to help coach kids though. And that was really the most fulfilling and enjoyable. I quit the coaching thing a few years ago as my body hurt for months after the season. Just too old to do that stuff anymore. mspart 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WrestlingRasta Posted July 12, 2023 Share Posted July 12, 2023 Everyone wants my smoke. It’s really the best smoke, probably in history. You should have seen the people as they got to experience my smoke. Grown men, with tears in their eyes, telling me how grateful they are for the smoke. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
