Update for May

Greetings everybody. Thanks for checking out my site. You'll notice it looks pretty sweet, huh? Watch for it to keep developing in the next several weeks. By the way, as per several requests, I will be putting my workouts up in the near future.

I'd like to tell you that Sabu says "Hello" but he's not really into talking. He's fine though, so don't be worrying.

Anyone interested in the cannabis prohibition situation should check out Marc Emery and consider his petition before the end of the month. I met this guy in Vancouver a few months ago, and what an interesting story he has! He is the Johnny Appleseed of the herb! If you want to see someone who's upfront about his beliefs you can see him on his online video program Pot.tv.

Wrestlemania 23 is out on DVD this week. Disc 3 has myself and Sabu inducting the Shiek into the hall of fame. I checked out my superstar early release copy, and it has the entire, unedited speech. This is the only time I've gotten credit for speaking well from WWE besides the original One Night Stand shoot promo, so it might be worth checking out.

I will be signing your DVD's Tuesday May 22nd at FYI #1597, Jordan Creek Parkway, in West Des Moines from 12:00 – 2:00. Wow, that's in twelve hours. I better get ready for my flight.

Robot Chicken is on DVD too! Funny, funny stuff.

I recently gave LOST a try and went through the entire first two seasons as quickly as I could watch them. I'm waiting anxiously for season three to come out on DVD, or at least rerun on television because I really enjoy that show. I think you have to start at the beginning, but check it out.

I hate season finales of great shows. Damn it Heroes! Can't we have a few more weeks?

Last show is on now but I've got that flight we were talking about, remember?

Let's do this again soon.

Time to Roll…

Atlanta Women...

Finally, I have a minute to write an update. We have been on the go for…as long as I can remember, actually. Anyway, I'm still catching up from the Mexico trip and this last trip to Europe was ALL travel. We had some great turnouts everywhere from Italy to London. It's always awesome to see the support from other countries who watch the television shows every week.

Quick turn around and then I went to Atlanta to start the week.

Atlanta made news recently when members of a Georgia narcotics investigation team shot and killed 92-year-old Kathryn Johnston during a drug raid in her Atlanta home November 21, 2006.

A search warrant stating crack cocaine was being sold in her apartment allowed the officers to cut through the burglar bars protecting Johnston's home and burst through her door without identifying themselves.

Johnston, who lived alone, apparently mistook the plainclothes officers for intruders and, according to the prosecutor trying the officers, fired one shot through the door and hit nothing. The police responded, firing 39 shots, killing Johnston and apparently wounding three of their own.

Investigators did not find any crack cocaine or any evidence that drugs were being sold in the apartment. In an apparent attempt to fabricate a cover story, one of the officers, J.R. Smith, planted three bags of marijuana in the home, according to Assistant U.S. Attorney Yonette Sam-Buchanan.

It's amazing what extents they'll go to, to protect a crazy law. If you want to know more about Kathryn's situation or learn about other victims, check out MPP.org.

When I get home, I catch up on my tivo before I pass out from the travel. Too bad they don't run out here on the West Coast very often. Here's what gets watched in order. Heroes, Medium. Entourage, Sopranos and until Dexter or Dirt come back it'll probably stay that way. There's a bunch more, but dude, quit being so invasive! Kidding.

All right. Time to fly again. New York, three hours ahead, afternoon show means I get to leave Friday night for it. Yay.

It better be warm.

Go see Spiderman 3 and we'll meet back here next week.
Late.
