of....Thats like dimissin the Constitution cause Jefferson had slaves. But you do the math.Count every person America has killed & compare it to China.Germany,Russia,Italy.Franc & England.Spain & the Dutch, Every third world country in Africa.Japan.Every Communist & Dictatorship that has ever existed. Believe it or not The Native Americans weren't the peace lovin pipe smokin,one with nature folks Hollywood has made them out to be. Can you Imange where the world would be right now if the first colonist who came over went back & told their Monarch's...........Well there's this Native people over there........and they got some culture.................But mostly it's lose pack's of folks called tribes...........They don't have a written language & haven't discoverd the wheel yet..........But we could probally swapem beads for land.............Thick we should just leave this new world alone ????And if we do, won't other countries take advantage of it ????......... Yeah of........The world came real close to just lettin the natives be

But I'd rather talk about ZEN............. The action of non action.............wu wei........... Being in the zone................ Acting without thought.........Man it's a sweet feelin.........But the minute you relize your in the zone you break it's spell.At first.Then you can just Zen out again with experience. If you wanna intercept a fist that you didn't know was coming...........You can't think about it......you just do.......& you think..........how cool that I did that without thought. Theres alot of sports psychology to ZEN,or being in the zone...whatever you wanna call it. I've got a bunch of expirences of doin things that were unlikely........Because I wasn't thinkin about doin them. My first was when I was in little league..................... Nevermind

I aint gonna read no thread that has a title this stupid. But I'm willin to help folks with their thinkin. Specially the ones that need it the most. If you think life will ever be fair..........Your delusional. If you think their will ever be a perfect country or perfect forigen policy.........your delusional. If you don't think The US of A aint the finest civilization 15,000 years of recorded history has ever produced..............you just ignorant. We are the only Republic in history that hasn't conqured it's neighbors or even tried to. Now when you get to doubting the benifets of livin in the US of A ............."Delta is ready when you are". Of all the realy horrible socities in history(That's the stuff that happened before you became self aware)You wanna wine about the US of A straightning some folks out who needed it. I can't help a person this devoid of perspective. Be a lake dude Be a lake.

Clean Dojo vs. Gritty "Rocky IV" Training
Smith amp Wesson replied to amp's topic in General Martial Arts Discussion
I think their in the old world But I think It'd be sweet to train in some rustic structure in the woods. -

The only thing i've seen that appears to be a contradiction is the way light behaves.But nobodys sure what it is so you can't say it's a contradiction yet. But if a contradiction can exist, all bets are off.Anything could happen.You could get something from nuthin & wouldn't be able to predict the simplist of things. Only in concepts can contradictions happen.But concepts don't really exist like objects do. Good & bad are concepts.You can't take good & put it in a box for example.So it dosent exist.Math we use all the time & it's a great tool but does it exist ????No because it's a concept.It relies on something to exist.It dosen't exist on it's own.Can you put math in a box ???? Our language,our government,alot of who & what we are are concepts.Thats why we have so many ishu's.Real objects though don't have Ishu's.Despite our concepts, when it comes down to our atoms interacting with other atoms, contradictions can't & don't exist.

[b]GI REVIEW[/b]
Smith amp Wesson replied to coltmakai's topic in BJJ, Judo, Jujitsu, Aikido, and Grappling Martial Arts
Toga Sorry Got a KI cause that's what they ordered me.Judo style I guess. It's heavy.Dont like the way you tie the pant's but I'm guessin they all tie that way for some weird reason. Intrested in this thread also.as I need a light weight one. -
Give me some Ideas. I like them dumplins & Lo mein & fried rice & serval dishes like Mongolian chichen,Kung pao & General Tso's. I used to like egg rolls till I couldn't buy a good one anymore.

Instructors !!!! I got a quarstion
Smith amp Wesson replied to Smith amp Wesson's topic in Instructors and School Owners
Thamks Crash. I'm in Ga. also.Kennesaw. What part of town you in ??? -
I don't agree with any of em. And did you call Karl Marx a great thinker ??? If your lookin for truth.Your not gonna find it in a philosphy that is spirtual.Or Mystical. If your lookin for help in the way you feel about things, Religion can be a great aid. Here's 2 tenants to help with your thinkin 1 Truth is defined as the recognition of reality. 2 A contridiction can't exist. Good luck with your search for what is real.Went through it myself till I was 27.Lotta mind poison out there & alot you've already been poisoned with.Get it flushed out & you'll be able to say what is right & what is wrong.

I disagree, The best vegetable is BBQ Pork !!!

Generaly I supplement my diet with fried pork rinds & Guiness. I figure they fry the fat outa the porkrinds,Givin me the low fat protien I need. & the Guiness is givin me those complex carbs.

Is there a fella you will always read on this forum ???Makes you giggle,Maybe lay into someone in a funny way. Just wonderin.

Read your reply in my other thread & It would seem that you are a woman & that you take respect seriously. Kinda like gettin yo props(Ebonics for respect) So I'm thinkin maybe you could help me to understand this female I had a class with, who also was concerned with gettin her props. This dojo we was in was pretty cool, but she could suck the fun outa anything.The kinda a person that brings out the worst in folks.The reason I left was I couldn't stand to be around her & I sure wasn't gonna pay to be miserable. Now this gal had been attending class every friggin time the doors were open.For over 2 years !!!So you'd figure she'd know sumthin by now. Have they got a term for folks that are obsessed with their dojo ???The kinda folks that would pay to clean the mat every day just to be included in some group delusion.The delusion being if you keep sending the dojo check's that don't bounce We'll give you a colored belt & pretend you aint got 2 left feet.And the strength of an 8 year old. Now I'm new to this dojo of mostly men.And feel I fit in pretty well with everyone but this gal has got it in her brain that because her check's havent bounced she is in some way superior to me.A fella of 6'3"220 pounds. We would be shown a technique & in this dojo the senior partner would go first.So Immediately she's lookin around tryin to get rid of her brain lock.I say.........It's the other hand & guess what ???You think she's relieved to know at least how to start ???HE!! NO!!!! now she's angry cause somebody that has been there a month has just vocalized what the whole class already knows.Despite her colored belt the gal can't even follow something as simple as which hand to use. So she replies with Uke shouldn't offer advice to a senior member, or sumthin like that.................So now I'm thinkin fine......... I'll offer no more help.I wont twist my arm the right way for ya.I wont fall for ya.And I wont be throw for ya.Which of course she had no chance of ever doing. Now I'm thinkin............she must really have some Ishu's......Probally goes home & cries about stuff.Whishes people loved her & such. Or she could be a natural born Arse. Just seems to me the folks that deserve respect get it & the folks that don't ........well they get all upset when they don't get there prop's. And before you think I'm sexist I'll do my "short man disease" post one day to balance it out. So Heidi will ya help me to understand the diffrence between what is real & the concept of respect.Cause I sure didn't respect this gal at all.And if I ask why 6 techniques......... I don't understand how that is disrespectful. I don't give much thought about touchy feely stuff like respect.Seem's Martial Artist & Gangstas are the ones to ask about it.

Instructors !!!! I got a quarstion
Smith amp Wesson replied to Smith amp Wesson's topic in Instructors and School Owners
Well thanks for the replies fellas. Didn't really get an answer though. Guess the one's that do this didn't want to defend it. Here's why I need to get it right in the dojo......... 1 My gutters need to be cleaned. 2 My grass need to be cut. 3 The wife aint a willin training partner & the boy is only 17 months old. 4 The dog needs activity. 5 I have to produce to get paid. 6 The handicap aint gonna get lower on it's own. ETC.......The list is endless. So if your lurkin & read this.........Relize some of us go to the dojo to train !!!! Key word....TRAIN.........Not to see sumthin & move on to somethin else you aint gonna ingrain either. BTW knock off the goofy explainations to hear your self talk.I'd rather be working on what I was just shown
