my book ...
so a lot of you guys might know that i've been working on a book for the last few years. well, it is officially published as of last week!
when i was three years old, i decided i wanted to be a pro wrestler. i never grew out of my childhood aspirations. when i was 18, i opted out of college and went to the Chaotic Training Center (see Kofi Kingston, Chad Wicks, Aron "The Idol" Stevens). i was thrown over the top rope and broke a bone in my back which ended that dream.
i came back to DC w/o any idea of what I wanted to do next, found work in some local restaurants and wrote about my experiences.
for wrestling fans, i've snuck in some of my favorite catch-phrases throughout the book.
if you wanna check it out, you can do so by looking for "It's a Miracle They Ain't Dead Yet" on amazon.com or finding me on facebook.

I swear on my life I will get this! I am Christmas shopping so money will be tight but for the price, I can still swing this with my next order from Amazon which will be Monday when I get The Green Mile on blu ray for someone. I'll review it ITT after I read it. I'm sure it'll be worth it and can't wait to get it and start it. (really!)

I found it on the Barnes & Noble website, so I'll check it out tomorrow to see if they carry it at the nearby store.

Added to my wish list.
Good job being published. Now when you apply for WWE creative you have some writing experience to put on your resume'.

I've done it all except for server/waiter mostly at Shoney's, Denny's, Ruby Tuesdays and a Chinese Buffet Restaurant.
But did it all from line-cook, dishwasher, prep-cook, buffet/salad bar but never was a waiter.
Ruby Tuesdays and Shoney's btw were like a f*ckfest between the guys and all the waitresses, which I was an intregal part of at the time. (no e-brag, especially when I think back to one of the waitresses I hit). HEYYY any stories like that in the book?

What a bunch of nonsense, the oWo and WSO's get lots of GOOD pussy. Why most of us have great sex with beautiful woman two, three or more times a day while you all rub one out in a circle to gifs of Maryse!
I wouldn't let someone like that waitress serve me breakfast in a restaurant, let alone in bed!
The said waitress I was thinking back to was a psycho. Not really an uggo. A psycho. Let's just say she was not right and scared me during and after the sex. Talk about a hook up gone wrong...
