Thanks guys, I will keep my head up high dont even worry about that!

Chad and me we did the right thing this year and the placing is not going to make me change anything. I will be doing the Ironman and the Arnold next year and I'm sure I will qualify for the Olympia 2005 there is no doupt in my mind.

And yes I will hook up with my boy Mo (Renegade) I always like to help others especially guys like Mo since he has so much potential and talent that it would be a damn shame to see this go to waste. I remember when I started training in 92, I had noone to tell me what to do how to split up my training or how and what to eat at what time. Now I work with Chad and you dont know how good it feels to have someone in your corner who can see your potential and is helping you to achieve your goal and dreams.
Mo is very young and also very determind and diciplined and that is exactly what I like cause I'm the same way and it will be alot of fun helping him to achieve his dream. I told him yesterday over the phone that I'm sure if he does everything right there is no doupt in my mind that he can turn pro at the age of 23-24, and then it's on! I also said that I hope before I retire I would like to see him compete in a proshow where he can maybe stand next to me, so I can slap hiss butt around a bit.lol. No but serious I think it would be something else to see him take over where I left off.

Again thanks to you all who stood and still stand behind me for you continued support.
Chad, thanks for believing in me and helping to steady improve and I'm ready to go for the early shows bro.!! Will call you later.

Peace
