    it I think it was this past Wednesday. I go work out at this one gym on Kirby. My trainer always told me this one tall basketball player with curly hair works out there as well. He is not a basketball fan so he didn't know who it was.

    Well I walk into the gym on Wednesday. As I am turning a corner, I see this big ass dude. A split second later I realized it was Robert Horry! I was shocked to see him and he saw my initial reaction. I didn't go up to him right away. He was working out and looked pissed off. However I kept on looking at him off and on and he was always looking at me to see if I was looking at him. Then soon he started to get this goofy smile because he realized I was looking at him. This went on for about 10 minutes and he was constantly smiling now. I told my trainer who Horry was and told him I was going to ask him for a picture when he was ready to leave.

    But my smart ass trainer goes right up to Horry and tells him I would like to take a picture with him. Horry said yes and I went over. I told him I would have asked myself, but my trainer is a smart ass. Told him I loved him when he was on the Rockets. He smiled and said thanks. I asked him if the Rockets tried to get him this year and he said "no" with a smirk on his face.

    Anyways I took a picture with him and said thanks. He usually drives a Ferrari to the gym! :eek:

    Damn I am a HOTTIE! :D

    I emailed the picture to Rockhead and he said he will post it on here. He is not a moron like me when it comes to computers and stuff.

    Dave, yeah it is the glassy gym.

    I did not personally see his Ferrari, so I dont know what color it is.

    And one more thing, Horry looked to be in excellent shape already. Very cut.

    I asked him to stay seated when taking the picture. Didnt want to look like a shrimp standing next to him.

    The fact that I look a shrimp even him being seated cannot be helped.

    And before somebody asks, I dont walk around with a digital camera. I have one of those camera phones. And good thing I saw him on Wednesday. My stupid phone died on Thursday.

    I've gained approximately 25 lbs since I started working out with him. Chest has grown four to five inches. And arms have grown about an inch and a half. The only bad thing about gaining weight is that you also gain it in the waist area. I still want to gain about 15 lbs before the cutting phase though.

    Sweet.

    Congrats.

    And nice pic. The only person I see at my gym is a trainer who looks eerily like a smaller Ricky Williams.
