Why am I dressed in my jiu-jitsu gi in most of my profile pics? Do I walk around the mall in my gi? Do I sleep in my gi?

There is a simple explanation for this. In recent history, it seems that the only time someone takes my picture is when I am at some jiu-jitsu function (e.g., tournament, class, etc.)

If someone wants to take a pic of me in my tie and dress shirt while I'm at work, I'll be happy to post the pic.

Thank you for your interest. You may now read about of few of my fascinating dietary, hygiene, and fashion habits.

A sampling of my fascinating dietary, hygiene, and fashion habits:

I am compelled to eat as much açaí as humanly possible.I have not eaten fast food or drank soda since 1989.I brush my teeth twice per day. My flossing is not as consistent. I'll floss in streaks e.g., I'll floss every day for two weeks, but then stop flossing for two weeks.I do not eat pork. I must admit that I eat pork occasionally. (Poor little piggies...) My wife makes a great pasta sauce with sausage that I cannot resist.On those few occasions that I need to use deoderant, I use un-scented deoderant.I do not gamble.On those few occasions that I eat ice cream, I eat vanilla ice cream.I never wear cologne or jewelry.I have never smoked a cigarette or done any drugs.I drink about 4 beers per year.I have been buzzed but never drunk.On average, I shave my head every week.

Ascetic? Nonsense. I live a life of extravagance and excess.

On most days, I can be found on the discussion forums at either NHBGear.com/forum or the OG ( www.mma.tv ).
