Notes: Part of our continuing series, "Wacky People from the Streets of Real Life Denver." Name changed because I feel like it, but if you think you know him, watch yourself.

Background: Curtis had a somewhat rough childhood, getting beat up a lot for being a fat lower middle class kid in a somewhat upper middle class neighborhood. He learned how to protect himself and later got in decent shape, but never amounted to much careerwise until he got lucky on a scratch ticket and invested it wisely, in a martial arts studio of his own. He teaches lessons in fitness, self-confidence, and throwing a decent punch to small children, and he's pretty good at it, more caring than talented but sometimes that's what they really need. But most of those small children have moms, single and otherwise. That's where the trouble begins. Curtis' self-esteem is largely tied up in his ability as a surrogate dad, but that's not the only way he'd like to pretend to be part of your kid's family if you know what I mean. He's got a serious hankering for lonely middle-aged women, and a bad case of Small Man Complex that leads him to never start a physical fight but delight in finishing one, in front of as many people as possible. There are a lot of guys in his neighborhood who would really like to show him the error of his ways, but he struts around flaunting his "Alpha Male" status, such as it is, because what are YOU gonna do about it?
