Hey all, Thank you for visiting KarateForums.com. Some members may recall that Brian and I met in person at Podcamp Topeka in November of 2010. The organizer of that unconference, David Lee King is a friend of mine and he has just released a new book, "Face2Face: Using Facebook, Twitter, and Other Social Media Tools to Create Great Customer Connections. The reason that I am telling you this is because David decided to include the meeting between and Brian and I in the book and, as such, we are mentioned, as is KarateForums.com. If you'd like to see the page in the book, click here and you'll be taken to Amazon's "Look Inside" feature for the book. There is a text box on the left side of the screen under "Search Inside This Book." Type in KarateForums.com and then hit the "Go" button. Page 58 and 59 should then appear as clickable results and you can then click each one to read that excerpt. Thank you to David for including us. I had a chance to read an earlier draft of his book and provided advance praise for the work. It definitely offers a lot of value. Thanks, Patrick Disclaimer: through our use of Skimlinks, I will receive a small percentage of any sales generated through the Amazon links in this post.

TAKE THIS AS YOUR SPOILER ALERT! Anyone else watching this show? Thanks to Amazon Instant Video, I managed to watch all 53 episodes over the last couple of months. Looking forward to the season premiere! Patrick

I'm surprised no one has made any "Mama Said Knock You Out!" jokes yet. Every other section of the internet appears to already have them! Heh. Seriously, though, I'm a fan of LL. Glad he's alright! Patrick

Instructor Who Lives An Alternate Lifestyle
Patrick replied to sensei8's topic in General Martial Arts Discussion
Hey all, I appreciate you starting this thread, Bob. There is a good and important discussion that can be had here and is already being had. As a reminder, for this discussion to remain productive and in line with the KarateForums.com User Guidelines, it must adhere to certain principles. Namely, the discussion should center around the martial arts, martial arts instruction and how it affects training. It should not veer off into general political or religious discussion. In other words, it should preserve Bob's original direction. For example, KarateForums.com is not the place to discuss these things: - If homosexuality or heterosexuality or any sexual orientation is OK, not OK, hurts people, doesn't hurt people, is right, is wrong, is a choice, is not a choice, etc. - If marijuana use or the use of any drug is OK, not OK, hurts people, doesn't hurt people, is right, is wrong, etc. There are plenty of places where one can discuss these issues, but KarateForums.com is not it. It is definitely possible to have a serious discussion without these generic topics entering it and, as evidence of that, all of the posts above this one have done so. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me via private message or email (patrick@ifroggy.com). In the interest of keeping this thread on topic, please do not post those questions on this thread. Thank you for your time and understanding. Sincerely, Patrick -
