Did you watch it to the end? I almost didn't but I thought, what the heck, I have already used up a couple of minutes I will never get back so I might as well see it through. I won't say how it ended in case someone else wants to watch it.
The big guy tapped out. You know, if he had ever been able to get that little guy in a bear hug or even just a front or side mount with his arms pinned the little one would have been toast.
Yeah but at his size, once he goes down on the mat, there was no chance he would get back up. Big guy had to hold him down for the win or if not, lose.

Yep. The little guy got free enough to pound on his gourd and the big guy figured he had had enough I reckon.
Doing well. I am helping to run the St. Vincent De Paul food room on 99 North.
Thursday we had 131 families come through. There are many needy folks out there. I gave away a new backpack and a clean used sleeping bag to one poor woman who had had her pack and bedding stolen.
Food For lane Couty does great things in our community. Working a food room is fun, but I miss working in the Family Dining program.
They have replaced people like me with bouncer sized and experianced individuals to help cntrol some of the more unsavory homeless people activity like the drug dealers who would treat the place like a watering hole siutible to stalk potentual customers.
FFLC serves meals in a restaurant setting four days a week and the Laurence Street Chapel covers Friday.
I work the front once a week seeing if there are any new veterans in town I can help hook up with services. I am a veteran and a very notorious activist in town.
Hey, it keeps me out of trouble. That's how my sister puts it in her tongue in cheek way.
There are so many thousands of disparate groups out there, all trying to do good for those in need: I wish that somehow that they could all come together and form one powerful force for good in this country.
it's hard enough to trust charities already, (like the red cross selling & throwing away gallons of blood donated by sincere dupes) i think centralization would make it much worse.Indy is better. If it were one force, kissinger or soros would take it over
I agree with you. Our small size gives us flexibility to adjust to our client base. People where I've been working move through the stations on industrial rollers and can use grocery cards at the produce area at the end to transport their boxes to their car or bycycle trailers.
A few times some of us escort clients to deposit their stuff at the bus stop as it brings the cart off the grounds and we need them to stay where they belong.
Some things people can take as much of as they want like bulk oatmeal, rice, pinto or white beans, and meat, sugar, bread and other things are doled out depending on how many dependents are listd on the slip clients bring with them though the stations at the food room.
Now, if I get a mom at the meat station who you can tell from their comments and body language that they need a little more then allowed and we are not critically short on the item, many of us will help them out.
The job requires a great deal of patience at times because some homeless folk really are frustrating to deal with as they have tactics to try to game the system we do not allow to happen (bless their little hearts). But is is rewarding and not boring at all.
You meet some very interesting people who come through there. We get many older folk with education and past success and position in society.
you see, when people are leveled by living on Social Security and really need 15 food boxes a year, the former mill worker rubs shoulder with former university professors.
sounds interesting, keep up the good work. I am curious, How much is govt or govt agencies (state,local,fed) involved, if at all, in the operation, and its funding? Would it even be possible to run such an outfit without govt meddling?
