Primitive but effective I guess. Thanks!

His wrestling is just awkward looking for some reason.

You are certainly not the only person that feels this way, but the end result is a win. I honestly will be surprised if he doesn't win it in Beijing. The age of B. Saitiev creates a prime candidate for another Karelin like incident for the Russians.

I will tell him that.

Can you install word press 2.6 onto the server? He has like 3 domains, I think benaskren.tv, .net, and one other since .com isn't available.

Can I have him email you?

Alot of his folkstyle wrestling look awkward as well, but he had pretty good results there.

How dare you talk about Ben like that so close to the Olympics? You are so disrespectful! I am appalled. I'd like to think there would have been a more appropriate way of discussing Ben's loss instead of childish remarks like that.

You're a troll. Piss off.
