This is the story of how my good friend Luke Kim earned the nickname Redline Luke this past week.†

Very early Tuesday morning †Alec Torelli, Luke Kim, Antonio Esfandiarai and†myself ended up back at Antonitoís condo after consuming a few cocktails.† After some bullshiting, storytelling etc. I ended up deciding to drive back to Sky to grab some shut-eye.† Luke Kim also lives in Sky and was going to ride home with me, but Antonito offered him $30 to stay and hang out for the next twelve hours.† Antonito is the most social human being I know and absolutely hates being alone.† Luke being the nit he is, instantly accepted.

Anyway, the next day after I rolled out, and grinded through my early morning workout with my personal trainer Dave Vaughn, I gave Luke a call to hang out.† He picked up the phone and†said, ìIím too sick to talk.† Call you laterî and immediately hung up.† †I then called Antonio and he relayed to†me the following story.

Background information: Alec, Antonito †and I had been shopping at Fashion show mall throughout the day and ended up at GNC where Alec and I advised Antonito on what products to buy as he had recently become quite the gym rat (He has workout prop-bets with multiple peopleÖ if he doesnít work out 4 times a week it cost him 3k per day missedÖ Ouch!).† Anyways, at GNC he picked up Redline extreme liquid concentrate (http://www.vitacart.com/redline-240ml-vpx.html), which a tiny sip of can turn a sleepy and lazy person into a frenzied workout machine.

In his drunk state, Antonito proposed to Luke (the most busto among us) that he would give him $100 to consume a giant spoonful of redline.† I mean this spoon was giant at least five times the size of a normal spoon.† Anyway, sober Luke, an ivy league graduate, is the most rational induvial I know, but in his drunken state he somehow decided he couldnít pass up the $100.† Soon after consuming it he started shaking and ended up in the bathroom. He immediately started trembling and before long was puking uncontrolably in the bathroom.† During this time frame Luke said he was having deranged thoughts and all he could he could think about it was murdering Antonito with various items throughout the kitchen for putting him in such a horrible condition.† Even worse, Luke was trapped at Antonitoís for the next twelve hours and †couldnít leave to go home, to his girls or to the hospital without paying the ungodly fee of $60!†

Eventually the elapsed twelve hours passed and Luke headed back to Sky via taxi.† He made it all the way to fashion show mall before he tossed the cab driver a $20 and rushed out of the cab to puke.† He then proceeded to Niemen Marcus where he passed out on the couch.† Now keep in mind that he hadnít slept in 24 hours, changed his cloths from the night before and had been puking his guts out for the past 12 hours.† This must have been quite the site to see for the high end clientele of Neiman Marcus. ††††

The next day Antonito threw a dinner party, which as always was full of beautiful women (many of whom I had met clubbing throughout the week).† Luke Kim, decided to make an appearance since he was still too ëhighí to sleep and wandered through the party pale, with an unzipped docle hoodie with no shirt underneath talking to all the females present somewhat incoherently. Luke normally weighs 130lbs normally but after 24hrs of not consuming any fluids he was down to 120lbs and looked like a concentration camp victim.† Granted, a concertation camp victim in an $800 hoodie.† Anyways, we have been calling luke Redline Luke ever since and it seems like the name is going to stick.†

Also I noticed my last blog post was late so I just sent $50 to CHAWKS731 on full tilt the first person to post on here that I missed the blog.† Itís so painful to send out this money.† Iím not going to let it happen again.† Iím even posting this blog in an unedited format to spare myself the pain.† Just to be clear the deadline is midnight at Friday PST and continues for the next two weeks.
