The Informed Vegan
Check out my interview by The Informed Vegan.

A few weeks ago we had a practice in Brooklyn, NY and decided to do a round-robin (winner stays on the table). I ended up winning 17 straight matches. This will probably be my last practice before getting elbow surgery November 12.

Sick To My Stomach
I just finished watching some videos from GoVeg.com and was reminded exactly why I do not eat meat anymore. It is so horrible and sad to see the way those poor animals are treated in factory farms.

Soy and Sake Village, NYC

Some other dishes include: mockmeat sandwiches, curries, salads, noodles, sushi and my favorite bento...
Paul Sorvino Eats at GOBO, NYC?!
I was out to dinner last night at GOBO, an AMAZING vegetarian restaurant located in the West Village. Then out of nowhere walks in Paul Sorvino (Big Pauly from Goodfellas) and sits down a few tables from us.
Didn’t think Big Pauly was into vegetarian food?! He looks more like a meatball and pasta kind of guy.

I also had the pleasure of catching up with Klaus Heesch - the owner of that...
Pull-ups
I highly recommend the Total Upper Body Workout Bar by Iron Gym. It’s inexpensive, durable and has a few different pull-up options. I usually use custom thicker grips because the bars are too skinny to get a good hand and forearm workout.
To mix it up I also do pull-ups and chin-ups off my door jams - the building is from the 1930’s so it has a thicker frame.
