I must attract them, the crazies and their crazy. Only I would be able to find a body building MHMR client at 6:30 AM. It was as if John Babbitt had a long lost brother with a burr haircut, thick glasses, and oh, don’t let me forget to mention the bike coaching shorts revealing a rather impressive yak/camel toe.
I caught a glance from my workout partner who spoke with her eyes saying, "For God sake, don't make eye contact." Of course it was way too late for that little covert message. I was already ass deep in crazy land. Babbitt is muttering under his breath to me, but still loud enough to be heard, something about finding some 100lb plates. He was in a bit of a frenzy while on his quest for the elusive 100lb plates. I told him that I have no idea where those would be and that he should try over there; gesturing as far away from my location as possible. He wondered off for a bit all the while talking to himself about weights and plates and Jesus... Well, he found the 100lb plates and was carrying one in each hand, and would probably carry one in his mouth if it wasn't so busy yapping crazy.
He went back for two more 100lb plates and proceeded to load up 400lb plus the bar weight on the squat rack. I really wanted to see what the result of this was going to be. I could only imagine how much material I would have, for weeks to come once I was able to witness this feat of strength. It was about to happen, crazy was pumping himself up and then a staff member came over. I could tell she had to build up her courage to confront helter skelter, but I have to give it to her. She was concerned that he was going to hurt himself. I was getting upset because I really wanted to see the show; complete with grunts, farts, pant splitting, turning red, stupid cross eyed face shit. Crazy said, "you can't hurt this body" or something like that, but in crazy sanitarium speak.
He finally gave up on the 400lb squat tard show. I am confident he will be back and I will probably be there to see the next chapter of his amazing weight room adventures.
Have a happy and a healthy,
Me

Well, I know this wasn't a story about me since I haven't been to the gym in about a gazillion years...
That's awesome. I would have wanted to see the train wreck that was about to occur as well. When it happens you have to share.
