I forgot that you don't go to the Political Forum now....this was in the Post your face thread.

Was the show your face thread moved to PF? I noticed that it was gone for awhile but now it's back.

Check out this Kiwi from the 1974 Commonwealth Games.

I remember watching this live on TV when it happened.

I started two of them. One was in the General section, started awhile back. I started another one in the Political forum with the intention of putting a face to some that have unpopular opinions. Of course, the biggest offenders were conspicuously absent.
It was naïve of me but I had hoped that it might make it harder to be rude to others if we could put a real face to the screen name.
I know....I have a history of being rude sometimes. Nobody knows my faults or my skills better than I do.

I remember watching him lift on Wide World of Sports when I was very young. He was a giant amongst men.

My hero when I was powerlifting was Bill Kazmaier. I got to meet him at The Arnold in Columbus, Oh. in 2006. Even though he was in his early 50's at the time, he looked like he could still compete with the best of them. The man was a mountain!!
