Welcome to the Bip Report. This Bip Report is going to be highly wresting orientated, so take that as you will. The end features States Results.
"Bip - Possibly living in Davis"
Okay, for the second week in a row, I was at Davis. And I will be back there again next week. And maybe again the week after. Who knows. I could be there every single weekend from here on out. Who knows. But it's good fun right? Who says there is nothing to do in Davis.
"Mikey"
Okay, so yesterday, Mikey came to take me to Davis. He arrived around 4. On the way up, we talked about whatevers. Mike is a nice guy. He expressed interest in maybe having me and Scott do a little freestlye tournament. He told me some history. His family is all from Hawaii. Tim and Mike go to Hawaii often, and stay Haleiwa side with their cousins. They enjoy commuting from Haleiwa to Ala Moana, and everywhere on the island, because to them, the drive is nothing. When we got to Davis, we stopped at Murder Burger, and Mike got an ostrich meat burger. I tried that thing, and it is not bad. It tastes like chicken, but it feels like beef. Strange.
"A Disappointing Dinner"
I got into Davis yesterday at 7. Mikey dropped me off at Scott's place, and we met up with Christina and James to catch the last 5 minutes of the DC being open. The dinner sucked. I was expecting it to be great, but it just flat out sucked. I had some less-than-a-handful crap pasta and wierd sauce. Fish stuff, rice, and something else. It wasn't very happy. I wasn't happy with the meal.
"A Little Movie Action"
Then Scott and Christina and me went to Scott's place to watch the last half of Usual Suspects. Christina had already seen it, but couldn't remember what happened next. So she kept asking me "who does he work for" or "Doesn't he go against that guy?" and stuff like that. But Scott never saw the movie, so I couldn't answer her without revealing plot to Scott. So I kept on answering, "You'll see." That's a pretty much worthless story, but I just tell it like it is. Hey, I'm just talking, you know? I'm just saying.
"Wrestling"
Then us three walked over to the Davis Rec Hall where we would meet Tim and Mike to wrestle. Christina was going home. Okay, detour.
"Christina's Bike"
Christina's bike is a fuscia girls bike with a basket. Scott says she was very happy when she bought it. Christina said she liked it. Scott seemed somewhat pissed that the bike had a basket, but Christina defended the basket by saying Scott and James like to put things in the basket. Still, Scott doesn't like that basket one bit, I think. Here is my question. Do all girls like baskets on bikes? Of course you see the old school girl bikes with baskets and little thingys coiming out of the handles. But even college girls, they like the basket. Like Christina. Even my sister refused to get a bike without a basket. So what is up? Do girls like to have baskets on bikes? I think yes. Personally, I think a basket is kind of handy to have. It does look femme-ish, unelss you have one of those Chinaman bikes, that you can carry dinners and stuff on. Abe, JJ, and Michelle, you know the kind. Like when you order food in Korea, and they deliver it to your door? They have those azushis that carry those metal boxes with the food inside, and they put the thing on the back of the bike? Those guys have baskets in the front too. Okay. I am totally off course now. I will steer back.
"Wrestling"
So Christina went her own way, and me and Scott went in to face the Suehiro brothers.
"Tim"
Tim is a lethal weapon. I was able to see his skill in Filipino stick fighting after. I swear, he can kill at least 10 people with one stick. On the mat, it is similar. He is 140, and he is damn good. He is choke agile. Scott wrestled him first. He kept on doing this move to evade Scott's shots. It is this little side-step number. It just looks nice. It is sort of confident looking. Your opponent is all sprawled on the ground, trying to grab you are just like walking away. It is a sweet move. When I wrestled Tim, he got me with this once. But the second time, I anticipated, and faked that side, then grabbed the other leg. I was able to get pretty deep on him. I almost took him down too! I kept on driving the navy, but I couldn't quite get it. Meanwhile, Tim was all ready to flip my ass, but I was too low. That was probably the best thing I did there. Tim is choke movement in neutral. His hands are moving, and his legs are moving, and he is ducking and shimmying all the time. You can't get a good lock on him. And while you're trying to fix in on him, he is closely studying your movement. The first day, he didn't have his contacts, so he couldn't do too much, but the second day, it was over.
"Mikey"
Mikey was actually #2 in California, not in the nation, so my bad. He was a freestyle state champ. At any rate, Mikey is frickin awesome. Mikey is fast. And he is long. He likes to do this snatch single, where he shoots off of both feet. It is nice. He taught that to me, so I am happy. It's like you have springs in your legs, and it makes the shot that much quicker. Two legs, instead of only one. I guess that makes sense. Anyway, Mikey likes to do these throws off of singles. He knows 8 counters to the single. It is quite formidable. After much cajoling, I wrestled Mike. He baits me like hell with his left leg. All the while, I am thinking this is like the Emperor telling Luke, "You want this, don't you? Take your jedi weapon! Strike me down with your anger!" It is exactly what he wants me to do. I don't take it, so he sticks it out even more. "Come on, Bip. It's right here. Look at it, man. It's not even moving. Just take it." "Take me, take me, Bip." So finally, I figure I have nothing to lose, so I shoot, and take it. After a series of quick arm movements, and positioning, all in a second or two, Mikey has ME where he wants me. I have the leg, and the next thing I know, I am on my back in an almost banana split formation. I am like, "What the hell just happened here? How did I end up in this predicament?" That is counter number 1/8. Collect them all. The next day, I shot in on him, and I got the leg. This time, he frickin threw me over himself, and my knee hit his head. But I went flying. My knee got worked, but Mikey just stood up, rubbing his head a bit. Mikey also taught freestyle with leglace and some other basics.
"All in all"
Good fun. Learned a lot, and now me and Scott may be going to a little freestlye tournament, eh Scott? Tim and Mike have made a goal. By the time we go back for summer, we will be able to kick everyone's ass. That is their goal.
"Mikey's Videos"
Mikey gave us like 7 videos of his matches at tournaments. Scott enjoyed pretending these where porn videos, for some odd reason. "Hey, I got some porn, Eric (his roommate)." "Hey Christina, we can watch some porn next!" What the hell where you thinking, Scott? Anyway, the videos are Mikey's matches, so we watched some of them. Here are my favorites. 1) Mikey takes down a guy, leg laces, and does cartwheels to turn him, over and over, until it is a tech. The match was over in less than a minute. 2) Mikey takes a guy down, leg laces, and rolls him once. But they are near out of bounds. So Mike stands up, drags teh guy to the middle of the ring, by his legs, gets down, and rolls him again until he techs him. 3) This guy shoots on Mike, and Mikey jumps up, slams him down, spins aroudn him in midair, and lands behind him for a takedown. The other guy was just sprawled out when Mikey landed. It was sweet.
"Breakfast"
The breakfast was more to my liking. Bacon, potato stuff, pancakes, waffles, eggs, etc. And best of all. Crunchberry cereal. It was decent as hell. I was quite pleased about it. The highlight of breakfast was James. He decided he wanted to try soy milk. Soy milk is nasty. It tastes like liquid tofu. James kept on defending it, and sipping at it. He added about seven packs of sugar to that thing, claiming if it were sweet like soy bean milk, it would be good. But no, that stuff is just disgusting. He got to have a whole quart of it. He brought it to Scott's room. Scott was pissed. he didn't want that stuff in his room. Then I offered James a dollar coin if he could pound that thing in two minutes. So James agreed. He chugged that badboy in 30 seconds. That's frickin sick. All that soy milk, now in James stomach. Disgusting.
"States in Hawaii"
So States are going on in Hawaii now. Here are the results of the first day that Kathie sent me. I tried calling my parents just now for today results, but to no avail. Then I asked them for Kathie's number, also to no avail. Oh well. Tomorrow then. Here is my biggest concern. LEVI is int he semis for 145. Holy crap, yeah Ken? This is amazing. I talked to Josh about this, but I don't think Josh is in the same boat us Ken and John and me about Levi. Damn. Levi. Chance to win. Anyway, here are the first day results as Kathie sent them to me.
