What can I say about myself that really needs to be heard. I was born and raised in Hawaii by a Pureto Rican Father and an Asian Mother. Growing up in Waianae, Hawaii was tough and there were alot of opportunities to go worng. I chose to go the other way. I moved to Las Vegas in 97 and found my way into casino security work where I became a Controlled FORCE instructor. This was my introduction into fighting and eventually got into MMA. I left Vegas and worked in New Orleans for a while under the Department of Homeland Security Federal Protective Services. I travelled the world for some time going to Russia, Ireland, Portugal, Spain, England, Estonia, Germany and then into the Bahamas, I now work as a casino surveillance manager and have been involved in the arrest or identification of numerous card counters and cheats. Welcome to my world.. Its as crazy as the real one without all the politics.. I live my life everday as if its my last..

Don't worry too much about pissing people off on here. Some guys get all butthurt every time you disagree with them, others are cool about it. There's sort of an informal list of people whose buttons you can push, and whose you can't. It won't be long until you get a feel for things.
If you wanna know where to find some good content, just look at my favorite writers list. They're all pretty good.
Ballistic, Thank you for becoming a fan. In these hard times it is very nice to have a new fan and as an old woman, I appreciate it very much. Grandma Dee

Id like to send my thoughts and prayers out to the family, friends and TapouT brethern of Charles Lewis Jr. One of the most influential people in the sport of MMA. His charisma and love for the sport was unmatched and his presence at the functions will be forever missed. RIP Mask.
