Fav pics from the last year…
Posted in Blog News on September 2nd by Dan.
It’s funny how when I supposed to be writing… I find myself doing anything but writing. Sometimes the hardest part is just getting started. Staring at the ominous blank page can be intimidating. Part of taunts me to write and fill its borders. The other intimidates me… because there is so much space to fill. Procrastination won the battle today… so I started to flip through my photo album and thought I’d share a couple of photos.
Me on the set of ESPN hosting ESPN’s Gladiator Marathon!
"Nitro is Coming for You!"
Photo Shoot for FLAUNT magazine. WTF! I don’t even know what to say about these two pics??
I don’t care what anyone says — I think Jessica Simpson is hot!
Dan and Jessica Simpson backstage:
Kid Rock was awesome!! I just got done asking him to BOX!
Kid Rock & Dan Clark backstage:
I had the Matt & Amy Roloff of "Little People Big World" over my house for a party. I know, I know from Kid Rock to "Little People Big World." But it’s one of my fav shows and my gf produces it!
Bull Riding! What the hell is wrong with me? Never again. Well, unless they offer me a lot of $$$!
Dan Nitro Clark on Ty Murray’s Celebrity Bull Riding
The alternate cover of my book "Gladiator – A True Story of Roids, Rage and Redemption" I wished they used. If you haven’t got it yet… you can still pick it up here:
Gladiator – A True Story of Roids, Rage and Redemption. If you do read it, circle back and give me your feedback. I’d love to hear from you!
Lastly, I leave you with an "old school" picture of me as a junior in 1980 at Saddleback High school in Santa Ana, California. "Man, did I think I was too cool for school!"
Every enjoy the last weekend of summer!
Be well!

BTW — Everyone ask me about supplements and products I love. I’m still on the Sun Warrior Protein powder kick. It’s a little bit pricey but worth it as I haven’t found anything better! It’s organic, from brown rice (makes the Asian side of me happy) and has the highest assimilation rate of any protein on the market!!!

The Flaunt pictures are funny. I can’t see you being the person who staged those shots. I like the pictures on your myspace page much better. Thanks for the new pictures. Good luck on starting the next book. My mind wanders too much to even try something like that.
Summer is almost over in Alaska–and I think it’s going to be a long winter. You need to work on the book so I have something to read when its 50 below.

I was watching one of my favorite shows–The Cleaner with Benjamin Bratt and was wondering if you have considered writing a script for this series since it is about addiction. Maybe have BB’s character not feel safe helping someone with bad ‘roid rage and have him ask a friend of his for help–a friend who was on a show about gladiators–who battled steroid addiction.
Just a thought.

Dan.. My sister Sarah Quigley, your friend from Racquet Ball World who once introduced me to you in the 80's has lost a second dog to cancer.. It was very difficult.. but slowly,one day at a time she is recovering from the loss.. I have 2 t-cup yorkies.. Sonny and Cher.. Sonny is the smallest of the Pet Therapy dogs at Choc Hospital in OC… I almost lost Sonny about 4 months ago.. he fell and I did CPR (never trained .. just watch alot of TV) and I saved my little 3 1/2 pound guy.. He is a real survivor.. but I remembered the horrible feeling when holding him limp and trying to get him to breathe.. I hope that I will be able to handle his passing one day..
Thank you for sharing your story with the world.

Have read 2 out of the 3.. probably the most important book is SUGAR BLUES.. High glycemic diets are killing us…Depleting oxgen to our cells, etc.
Have a great weekend and remember.. next time you are in OC to visit mom.. contact me for coffee.
