One thing I have realized, is pretty much every guy you talk to, will tell you that his martial art is better then the next one. Thats why in the end I chose the muay thai, and the BJJ. You get a mix of striking and grappling (I already have some wrestling) so you should be prepared for the ground as well as on your feet.
Also Muay thai is supposed to be a killer workout, and my cardio could be improved. Ive been lifting weights since I was about 10 years old, so Im plenty strong, but I never have worked on my cardio, so I have a little catching up to do haha.

You still running with your dogs?

The "stamp of approval" most often looks similar to this, but rotated 180*...

I'm still here too. I talked to the alternator rebuilder and he said that he needs the info off of the name plate. He said that it can be done quite easily but needs to find a few parts to price it out.
