Welcome to the NEW MartyGallagher.com!

Written on 12 July 2007 by

If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

For the first time in over two years, MartyGallagher.com has gone through a major site re-design! I think we were due, don’t you think?

Among the changes:

More changes are coming, including reverting the header to the one we use in the Forum, as well as enhanced content features.

You might have also noticed that we have some things missing, most notably the Main sections of the old site (Pure Strength, Cardio, Riverhorse, etc.). We are holding on to this content and have plans to re-release them in another form. Stay tuned!

Here’s the best part…

All of this was designed to bring more traffic to our site and get the Purposefully Primitive Fitness word out to the masses!

“How can I help?”

Underneath every blog post, you’ll find a whole bunch of tiny icons. Each icon corresponds to a social bookmarking site, such as Digg. If you like a particular blog post, I highly highly encourage you to click on these buttons! The more people that click on them, the more popular that blog entry becomes, and the more people will see it. You’ll need to create an account at the particular site you’re bookmarking to, but a lot of us already have that. Please help us spread the word!

As always, your feedback is appreciated.

Also, if you have any problems with the site, please use our new Support Ticket system!

Marty and I would like to thank everyone who has been a part of this site from the beginning. Your continued support and generosity is greatly appreciated, and Marty will be back soon with all-new stuff. We have lots of things lined up, so make yourself at home and enjoy the ride!

Boys will be boys

I got a call from one of my deep background sources the other day and about ten minutes into the conversation Mongo as well label him, let slip that hed been involved in physical violence the previous day. I had to get into a fight yesterday. Really? Yeah, once again, this guy thought he was bad and felt he had to demonstrate this to Brandy. Whos Brandy? Oh, she was the stripper we were sitting with. This guy thought he was a great boxer. So many questions were suddenly answered. So Mongo, what exactly happened? It was all very dramatic once hed decided it was on. He stood up and flung that little table that you sit at right out of the way, my beer went flyingnot cool. Then he drops into a pretty little Sugar Ray Leonard boxing stance and the second I stand up he launches a right cross at my jaw. Whatd you do? I grabbed his ass. I got hold of one of his hands and jus reeled him in like he was a marlin. He hit like a girl. Zero power. It was like hit me! Yawn. This was in the middle of a strip club? Well not the middle but up against one wall. Did you hit him? No. I didnt need to. I crushed the dog piss out of him. He might have broken ribs. I quit squeezing the moment I heard the snapping sound. Good God! Where were the bouncers while this is happening? Its dark and music was blasting Freebird and this happens real fast and I was there as a guest of the owner and I train with one of the bouncers.

So when they showed up I had the situation in hand. I had Sugar Ray in a headlock squealing like Ned Beatty in Deliverance, the bouncers were like, hey mongo do you want us to help you kick this guys ass! So what happened? So I let the guy go and he starts with the mouth, You wont fight me like a man! If you fought me like a man Id kick your ass. Meaning what? Oh, he wanted me to box him. Like Marquis of Queensberry or something. He gets himself so worked up he takes another shot at me and this time hits me in the eye! Pow! A second time? Yes! I said, you son of a bitch! thats when I think I broke his ribs. Then what? Now I have him in a sideways bear hug and hes like a broken rag doll. My face is right next to his so while Im crushing the life out of him Im talking to him. Oh great. Were you giving him stock market tips? No actually I was telling him if we were in a private home instead of a public establishment I might do bad and perverse things to him. He finally got the message. Well thats good. Alls well that ends well. Something like that.

The moral of this Aesop Fable is when you find yourself drinking beer with a silverback gorilla; dont poke a sharp stick in his eye.
