The big election was yesterday, no?
Unfortunately, on Tuesday, October 22, I withdrew my name from the election. I wish to thank everyone who supported me, my family, and our efforts to get some things changed in Taylorsville. My decision to withdraw was based on the fact that the negativity surrounding Larry Johnson and my relationship (he is my father in law) was starting to negatively affect Larry's campaign. There is almost nothing in this world I would like to do more than win this election, and to serve the awesome people of this city, but that being said, I feel that the residents of our city need to have Larry Johnson as their representative much more than they need little old me. I am proud to have him in my life and I am proud of the direction that he wants to move Taylorsville. I encourage everyone to take a good hard look at what he has to say and the plans that he has.
Again, thank you for all of your support!

At life? No. Look at him.
He's good guys. Great even. He ended up dropping out of the race not to save someone else's chance, but because he believes he found his true calling with grappling. I guess he wants an MMA career.
And of all the ridiculous things he could do to train for that, he's moving to Alaska to learn Brazilian Jujitsu. Something about an Alaskan wolf pack.. I assume it's someone he met in Vegas when he went to that tournament.
He hasn't been on much as he's really trying to focus on it hard. Kind of admirable at his age to up and leave like this at his age, but I support the guy.
Awesome. So I'm not the only one mid life crisis-ing? That's good.
Sounds like he's copying Jon Favreau's character on Friends.
Is this seriously true? Dude is quitting the insurance biz and uprooting the family to Alaska all in the name of becoming a cage fighter? You've got to be ****ting me.
