reveal your secret identity…
Chris Benoit – wow, what can be said. A tragic occurence. Had to be some sort of domestic related problems, most of the time people just don’t kill their children unless there is something major going on in the family. Just goes to show you that you no one knows what goes on behind closed doors.
The UWF photos from Waynesboro are finally up…a storm came through yesterday and knocked my computer out three times, so I just gave up for awhile.
Going to APW in Spartanburg this Saturday night, and also on Independence Day.
unconsciously vulgar…
To catch up:
Wednesday’s winner – Andy H. from Rochester,MN
Thursday’s winner – T.W. from Ottawa,Ontario, Canada (international!)
Friday’s winner - Bethany J. from Paragould,AR
Friday was the last day for the free photo giveaways. Thanks to everyone who visited the site, and thanks to Kirby Mack for getting the word out. It was very interesting to see what a little name dropping can do.
Good luck to the Anarchy crew tonight as they enter the Georgia Mountains Center for Hostile Environemnt 2007.
Thursday I joined Team Macktion and ER and headed to Waynesboro, VA for the UWF show inside the Shenandoah Valley Fair. Took almost 6 hours to get there. Had a great time – worked the Highspots table (I always enjoy seeing and talking with the fans here), got to shoot some firsts: BJ Whitmer, Andrew “Test” Martin, Scott Norton, Sonjay Dutt, and Christian York.
Got home at 4am Friday. Watched the Jaime Dundee shoot interview from Highspots…great stuff…speaking of that, check out the covers from the NC UWF shows:
Tuesday’s winner/post weekend…
Tuesday’s winner is Danny M. from Charlotte,NC. He has requested some pics from Starrcade reunion show that was held in Spartanburg,SC.
This past weekend saw us traveling to Statesville, NC and Cornelia, GA. Friday ER and Adam met at the house and we hit I40.
This will be the last CWA show until August. It was nice and warm inside the Grace Park Rec Center. I heard that Statesville is planning on closing/tearing down Grace Park. I hate to see that. The lighting in there was never good for me though.
Christopher Desales told me that he is moving back to California in July. I first met him and his “brother” Rob in EWA as Los Guerreros. Good luck Chris.
I know a guy from the south that when he gets drunk he starts talking like he’s from Brooklyn…where does this come from? “The Manhattan Kid” is hanging around too many drunk Yankees I think…
Where was Michael Frehley Friday night? He was at the 2nd red light and then disappeared without a trace…
Adam ran the camera for Stoney and then worked concessions with Thomas. ER and I gave our “young boy” to CWA for the night.
Match of the night was “The Elite Icons” – Jake Manning & Joey Silvia facing “The Neon Lions” Chris Collins and Lee Valiant. The Macks will be facing the Icons soon – should be some great matches.
I was mistaken for David Wills on Friday…yeah…
We met another Peter Griffin impersonator late Friday night too…
ER loves the Cubs…
Saturday was NWA Anarchy – met ER and Jake Manning in Greenville…my first road trip with Mr Elite…
I gave Jake bonzer ideas for upcoming Highspots projects…
Match of the night for myself was Slim J vs. Patrick Bentley…they are now tied in their best of 5 series…
The fans in Cornelia love Truitt Fields – very loud reaction.
Noticed a Team Macktion ”Death From Above” t-shirt in the crowd – and it was in the high bleachers, those guys who enjoy yelling the most…
Good luck to the Anarchy guys this coming Saturday on “Hostile Environment” at the Georgia Mountains Center, I hope the show goes well…
I understand that APW in Spartanburg had a capacity crowd Saturday night…
Upcoming: July 4th in Spartanburg for APW’s Fourth show…July 12 – CWA in Orangeburg,SC…July 13-14 Flying down to FL for the Jeff Peterson Memorial Cup…July 21 UWF in Columbia for the last night of their tag team tourney…August 10-12 NWA Legends Fanfest…
Monday’s winner…
drumroll?
Our friend, Bodie J. from Earnshaw,WV was the winner for Monday – he requested some photos from our last UWF shows in Virginia.
Don’t know what I’m talking about?

I watched, keen-eyed for the feared horizon of scowls…
It’s going to be a couple more days for the photos from this past weekend (CWA in Statesville on Friday and NWA Anarchy on Saturday). Other than work today and tomorrow, I have some stuff going on that requires more of my attention right now. I’m hoping to get started heavy tomorrow evening and hopefully at least get CWA up.
Also by this weekend I will have up a blog about this weekend…incuding an encounter with a detective, and how elite is “Mr. Elite”?…
Time for bed…

Inside BBQ news…
So here I am stuck at work…truly alone…the lights are off…everyone is at the BBQ Festival at Harmon Field…Channel 13 is there, I saw them on the news…
Just got to make it until 7pm so I can go home and sit in the dark and do nothing there…
I couldn’t help but laugh at this news…
