Hiya folks, Steve here. Merry Happy and all that, Jolly new year etc. Hope no-one's dead and none of your family pets were raped. Now that the niceties are done with, onto business.
For those of you who don't know, which I am assuming is pretty much everyone, I have started MMA training. I am 37, I've been smoking, drinking and generally sitting about quite a lot for about 20 years now, and I decided it was time to do something about it.
I quit smoking a few weeks ago with the help of some wonderful little pills, and PSC (punkspacecadet, my lady love) and I are both training at a working MMA gym in the city.
The MMA community in Adelaide is quite small. In Australia in general we are a boxing and kick boxing country as far as martial arts are concerned, but I have hopes that I will be able to eventually fight in a ring or cage, as does PSC.
So this webpage is pretty much going to be a record of our training, and of our journey from couch potatoes devouring junk food and cigarettes all day to however high we manage to climb on the MMA ladder.
So, if you are interested in this sort of thing, stick around. If you came here for the podcast, I don't do that anymore. To be honest, I'm pretty embarassed about the ill thought out and poorly educated ideas I put out in those podcasts, but I am still an honest guy. I made em, so there they stay.
No matter how much I might want to delete them.
Look forward to videos and whatnot about our training, and maybe some discussions on technique as well.
This is irregular, I am not going to be posting weekly, monthly, or even annually. I will post when I have content, and not before. Feel free to write in anytime on Bleep@internode.on.net with any comments or questions.
-Steve

More pics coming soon! But no video treat. I've checked Santa's list, and you've all been very naughty, and don't deserve a treat. Don't blame me!

More Steve a'comin!

Tasty as the tastiest tart in a totally tasty tart tourney! Oh YES!
What?
Did you think I was going to just DISAPPEAR!?
BWAHAHAHAHAH!
My ego, (and mortal fear of obscurity) ALONE compel me to seek the limelight! Let alone the burning need I have to spread the message! The very important message! A vital, life altering, soul saving message!
I'm not quite sure what that is just yet, but that doesn't stop me proclaiming it at high volume in public areas!
If you count the internet as a public area.
In short, and in the words of a certain tin plated ass kicker:
"Come with me if you want to live!"
No wait, that's not right.
"I'll be back!"
Yes, that's the one.

The Medieval Edition!
Episode 136: In this episode Steve tours the Medieval Fair in his guise of Yngwie the Bear, ravisher of cakes, hoarder of various small delicious pastries, and Viking warrior from some unpronounceable freezing Nordic island.
Fire! Violence! Punch & Judy! A weird Medieval Lathe! Plus some childish petty scoffing at another local combat club. Who could ask for more!?More Videos on Youtube Here! (Some funny, some just violent!)
