I opened our hotel door at 4 AM to see Derek (Cajun) with his left eye swollen shut, and blood dripping from his left ear.

He was smiling.

“Don’t worry man, I got ‘em!”, he said, as he walked to the bathroom to check himself out. “There were three of them, I broke the first one’s nose, I smashed the second one’s head against a wall…” he trailed off as he looked at his wounded eye.

“What about the third one”

“He got me”, said Derek, as he wiped the blood from his face.

Keychain was sharing the room with Derek and I; he gave me a concerned look.

“You need to get your ass to hospital” I said.

Derek was exploring the wounds on his scalp, “Yeah… I know.”

They say everything happens for a reason, and I believe that. As bad as they were at the time, all my screw ups and failures and disasters have made me who I am today, and I’m pretty happy with that. But I’m having trouble figuring out why Cajun got beat up and robbed in Sydney Saturday night.

He got lost trying to walk back from the bar after the workshop, and wound up in an alleyway near the Ian Thorpe Aquatic Center. Three guys came out of nowhere (they had been hiding), and pushed him to the ground. They demanded his wallet, but instead of handing it to them, he got up fighting and took two out. The third got behind him and hit him in the back of the head with something hard; that was the end of the fight.

When he regained consciousness, he didn’t even remember who he was. Some good people at a pizza place helped him back to our hotel.

We took Derek to the emergency room, where he stayed all night. By 10am we had found out that his ocular socket had been broken, and that he wouldn’t be able to fly until he got surgery and healed for a week.  And because of the Easter holidays, he wouldn’t be able to get surgery for two weeks. So we were stuck in Australia for three weeks, with not much money and not much to do.

We hung around Sydney for a few days, but we quickly got bored. Derek’s eye was healing, but it would still pop out of his head if he flew in an airplane.  So we decided to rent a cheap camper van, and drive around Australia for a week or so till Derek gets his surgery. If everything happens for a reason, it doesn’t have to be obvious. Sometimes you need to look for that reason. So we drove up to Byron Bay. There’s a big festival going on here, and Ben Harper is playing.

Derek and I both decided that there’s no way the reason he got beat up was so that we could see a Ben Harper concert, so we’re still looking for our reason. We ran into some people we met in Sydney, and camped out next to the beach. It’s pretty nice.

We’ll be driving around the East Coast of Australia for 10 more days, before we go back to Sydney for Derek’s surgery. A week after that, we’ll be in Melbourne to give a free talk, run a bootcamp, and head back home. In the meantime, we’re still looking for our reason.

Thanks to everyone who offered support and concern, Derek’s doing pretty good right now, except for some headaches and frustration caused by not being able to go into the water. We’ll keep you posted.

Learn to pick up women in Detroit.

Savoy has been bugging me for ages to do a bootcamp in Detroit, which is the largest city in North America that hasn’t seen a Lovesystems Bootcamp yet.

Well, I had a spot come free in my schedule this Feb, so we decided to go for it the weekend of Feb 27th . We’re going to do the program in “South Detroit” (aka, Windsor, Ontario, Canada), so that students 19+ can attend the infield portion.

If there’s anyone from Detroit/Windsor that wants to help organize a free talk or something, I would be up for it. Email me at my Lovesystems address.

Also – Keep in mind that this bootcamp will be in Canada, and US citizens will need a passport to cross the border and attend.

TSB Magazine has released their “Top Pickup Artists of 2008“. Cajun got the number three spot, Mr. M got number 8, and Soul and I got honorable mentions! All in all, it was a pretty good showing for Lovesystems.

I had the privilige of meeting the TSB guys when I was in LA in October, and although I didn’t actually get to spend time with them in the field, we got to shoot the breeze around the pool for a bit and had a good time.

Anyway, I just wanted to thank Mike and Bobby from TSB for giving me an honorable mention, and that if they want to get together and game sometime, I’d love to show them my stuff and take a spot near the top of their list for 2009

TSB’s Top Pickup Artists of 2008

• Cajun is on Keys to the VIP
• Pickup, EXPOSED!
• My problem with Paul Janka
• Californication
• Dating Science in the Media

I saw this phrase a few weeks ago, and it made me think…. I remember when I was young and new to the community, I used to get flaked on quite a bit, and it was a big issue for me and a lot of the other guys I hung out with back then. Nowadays, I get flaked on very rarely, and I think it all comes down to an attitude shift – changing my attitude towards dates from treating them like priorities, to treating them like options.

Farewell Sweet Prince!

And remember kids, if you’re going to lead a girl around the bar with your tie, remember to get it back at the end of the night.

On the upside, Calgary was fun… I did a free talk on preventing flaking for the Calgary Lair, which was great – about thirty guys came out. And the girls were friendly AND hot. It’s as though they’d never been hit on by a sober guy before. They’re a bit shy though – I literally had to grab one girl’s arm and put it around me, and then TELL her to kiss me to start a makeout. It’s like she’d never made out with a dude in a bar before… weird.

And, as always, my students were great. They all had totally different problems and goals, but in the end, they all experienced some major changes this weekend. (Good luck guys and keep in touch!).

I look forward to coming back to Calgary again!

I teach men how to pick up women in Calgary every 4-6 months. If you’d like to learn how to pick up women in Calgary, check the Lovesystems homepage for my schedule. If there isn’t a class on the schedule, there will be in a few weeks.

After the fight

Am I proud that I beat up a guy half my size? No.

Am I proud that I beat up a vegan? Hell YEAH!!

I often wonder how I get myself into these weird situations.

This summer, I went to Thailand for a few weeks, to chill out, hang with Sheriff, and get some writing done. While we were down there, we checked out Ko Phi Phi, a mind-bogglingly beautiful island off the west coast of Thailand, and met up with two friends, Tynan and Todd.

You may know Tynan as “Herbal T” from the game. Aside from running his blog he’s also traveling around the world with little more than a schoolbag’s worth of material possessions. You see, Tynan is a free spirit, the kind of guy who’s always up for an adventure, even if it’s probably not a good idea – kinda like me.

So, when we found out that there was a bar on Phi Phi that gives you free drinks for fighting your friends – we knew something fun was bound to happen.

I’d like to say that at first, I had qualms about fighting a friend who’s about 40 lbs lighter than me, but in all honesty, I really didn’t have any moral problems with it. Besides, Tynan is all into this veganism and cross-fit and health stuff, wheras I’m a beer and red meat kinda guy who gave up on working out when he found out he could get girls without being in shape.

We’re also pretty much exactly the same height, and the same age, so you could say this fight was ultimate test of fastideous healthy fitness vs raw animal fed bloodthirsty violence.

Ok, I’m being melodramatic here. It really was never a fair fight – I took boxing lessons a few summers back too.

Anyway, just because I clearly outweighed my opponent, didn’t mean I wasn’t still scared of him. I was really concerned that he would take advantage of the fact I was out of shape, and tire me out before pummeling me with his little weakling arms in the third round, when I was too tired to defend properly.

Also, I got a little drunk beforehand, just to even things up.

So we got in the ring, and there were probably over a hundred people watching us in a dingy, sweaty little bar, with the sound of thai music playing over the hum of the rickety old cooling fans.

We were suited up with ratty old gloves and Olympic-style headgear, so we wouldn’t hurt one another too badly, and our boxing shorts were literally splattered with the blood of previous contestants.

I bounced around to warm up. I threw some kicks to intimidate my opponent. The referee called us to the center of the ring. We touched gloves and it was on.

Tenmagnet v. Herbal

One thing I didn’t realize about boxing is how EXHAUSTING it is. Literally 15 seconds into the first round, I was completely exhausted. It’s not even like boxing in the gym – when someone really wants to hit you, your body just turns on the furnace and won’t let up. You’re completely, blind exhausted, but your body won’t let you stop fighting.

It was fucking cool.

Tynan was keeping his guard up, and managed to bounce some hits off the side of my head, because I wasn’t holding my hands high enough. Headache city. I threw some punches and kept him off balance, but he managed to get me one right in the face. I got him too, and knocked him on his ass.

Finally, after three rounds, it was over. That was the longest ten minutes of my life! I had a bloody nose, but had managed to knock Tynan down a few times. My head was pounding from the four or five shots he’d managed to get in. Tynan isn’t just a cool guy, and a good friend, he’s a vicious little bugger!

I had won, and got a free “bucket” of dirty thai booze and red bull, which I could barely enjoy because I was dizzy and messed up from the fight. Tynan and I shook hands, congratulated one another, and tried to stop our heads from spinning.

Truly an awesome experience.

Tynan has a lot of amazing stories, and definitely deserves a plug here Check out his blogs at www.lifenomadic.com and www.betterthanyourboyfriend.com
