:oops:Oh so it is mousekeeter ears that is the problem. Hey, you know I had a pair of those too. Hmmm Osama amazing he wasn't first on the list.

Granny Farts A little old lady goes to the doctor and says, "Doctor I have this problem with gas, but it really doesn't bother me too much. My farts never smell and are always silent. As a matter of fact, I've farted at least 20 times since I've been here in your office. You didn't know I was farting because they don't smell and are silent." The doctor says, "I see, take these pills and come back to see me next week." The next week the lady comes back. "Doctor," she says, "I don't know what the heck you gave me, but now my farts...although still silent...stink terribly." The doctor says, "Good!!! Now that we've cleared up your sinuses, let's work on your hearing."

Hey NinjaGurl welcome. Saw your post in the other thread and say you deserve your own welcome thread just like everyone else. So Welcome :wave:

:lol: :lol: Jerry Springer :lol: :lol: :razz:Now everyone this looks like a good one to have fun with.

Yes it does seem Hangetsu has its roots in Sanchin. The difference is in the hangetsu stance. It is a much deeper type of sanchin dachi. Approaching zenkutsu depth but with the knees turned in.

So has anyone dealt with either a plantar fascia problem? Or a heel spur?

Well my time of infamy was about 13 years ago. I somehow got involved in some advocacy work. And the local newspaper got interested. So a neighbor and I spent the day with a reporter and wound up in a full page Sunday color picture feature. That was actually the second article. A few weeks later our reporter friend returned for a visit and a followup after the issue we were concerned with was corrected. So after you appear in a front page full color Sunday edition of the paper it takes like a year to live it down. Before you can go out again without everyone recognizing you. I learned something else in the process. If there is something you really would like to see changed it is possible for a few people to get things changed. Even things in cement.

Nice presentation Three60Roundhouse. Now besides all that people don't smell very good after they have smoked pot. In my early college days I worked at a carry out. When a group came in after sharing some nice weed and tried to find something to cure their munchies it would frequently get quiet entertaining. That is if you can find humor is slow witted jerks looking at every single candy bar carried and then going on to the chips. As someone who wants to perform well in a martial art anything which slows down the reaction is not a good thing. Just watch some post potters next time you get a chance. What do you think your chances of successfully defending yourself in a bad situation would be if you were all smoked out?

It was suggested that Hangetsu can be a kata that will help strengthen the knees. While at the same time others swear it is a kata that is really hard on the knees and one someone with bad knees should avoid. For those who know the kata what do you think?

Yes swat someone with a pair of aluminum nunchaku in the proper manner they can be lethal. For that matter some techniques done with a pair of foam ones can be lethal.

Is the seal broken? A mother and her young son returned from the grocery store and began putting away the groceries. The boy opened the box of animal crackers and spread them all over the table. "What are you doing," his mother asked? "The box says you can't eat them if the seal is broken," the boy explained. "I'm looking for the seal."

Sometimes I think there are as many different reasons for practicing a martial art as their are people involved in them. There are purist who are horrified by tournaments. There are tournament hounds who are horrified by the idea of full contact. Is there a middle ground? I really don't know. And I really don't think it matters as long as the person involved is happy with what they are doing.

Just out of curiousity what do you want to do with them?

Basically in the hands of a person who has trained long and hard in the handling of nunchaku there is no difference in the amount of speed which can be generated with chains or cord. Somehow though in some circles the chains are percieved as "more macho" or some such nonsense. No offense meant to anyone who loves their chained nunchaku's. The danger to a person being hit with a swing from a nunchaku depends on the material they are made of. The handles not the attachment. Even foam padded ones can smart when you get going fast enough.

I was kind of wondering if anyone else had seen it. It was kind of interesting. I wonder how many more survivor spinoffs there will be?

Yeah Gorgoth that is the type of move I like to do. Only I don't jump in the process. And I have never broken anyones nose.

Many styles of karate to the same katas. Only with variations. And sometimes with different names. If you are just interested in doing well in tournament why don't you take a look at which katas have won previously; in the types of tournament you are interested in. And then see where they lead you.

Hey you sound interesting. Welcome to the forum.

Well the cat chatters really loved this one so let's see if I can tell it in such a manner as not to offend any one or upset Patrick. A lady had a dog she dearly loved but it snored very loudly. And as it slept beside her bed it was getting to be a problem. While at the vet she asked him if there was anything that could be done to stop the dog's snoring. Well says the vet there is one remedy. When he starts snoring you tie something around his erhummm, for lack of a more acceptable word, family jewels. That night the lady goes to bed. The dog lays down next to her bed. Before to long the lady is awakened by the dreaded snoring. So she gets up goes to a drawer and finds a blue ribbon. She ties it around the dogs....... Later on her husband comes home. And he is fairly drunk. He gets in bed and is soon snoring loudly. So the lady thinks well if it worked on the dog maybe it will work on him. So she gets up goes back to the dresser and finds a red ribbon. She ties it to her husbands.... Next morning the husband gets up all hung over. He stumbles into the bathroom. He comes out with a very puzzled expression. Then he sees the dog. So he says, "I don't know where we were or what we did last night but we came in first and second."

Hey Kickchick after I find my camera, if I post a picture of myself doing the splits are you going to send me a patch? Do you want me sitting up and grinning or stretched full out face to the floor?

The true fun of a broken tooth is that they can be broken into more than just 2 or 3 pieces. Trust me. I have the larger pieces of one of my molars in a plastic bag. Hey it was a good example of all the layers a tooth is made of when it was still fairly fresh. The surprise comes later on when you feel something poking you from the empty spot. And find slivers of something half in half out trying to escape. Girl thing TKD? - dead issue.

3rd Grade Smart A first-grade teacher, Ms. Brooks was having trouble with one of her students. The teacher asked, "Harry, what is your problem?" Harry answered, "I'm too smart for the 1st grade. My sister is in the 3rd grade and I'm smarter than she is! I think I should be in the 3rd grade too!" Ms. Brooks had had enough. She took Harry to the principal's office. While Harry waited in the outer office, the teacher explained to the principal what the situation was. The principal told Ms. Brooks he would give the boy a test and if he failed to answer any of his questions he was to go back to the 1st grade and behave. She agreed. Harry was brought in and the conditions were explained to him and he agreed to take the test. Principal: "What is 3 x 3?" Harry: "9". Principal: "What is 6 x 6?" Harry: "36". And so it went with every question the principal thought a 3rd grader should know. The principal looks at Ms. Brooks and tells her, "I think Harry can go to the 3rd grade." Ms. Brooks says to the principal, "Let me ask him some questions." The principal and Harry both agreed. Ms. Brooks asks, "What does a cow have four of that I have only two of?" Harry, after a moment: "Legs." Ms. Brooks: "What is in your pants that you have but I do not have?" The principal wondered, why does she ask such a question! Harry replied: "Pockets." Ms. Brooks: "What does a dog do that a man steps into?" Harry: "Pants" Ms. Brooks: What's starts with a C and ends with a T, is hairy, oval, delicious and contains thin whitish liquid? Harry: Coconut The principal's eyes open really wide and before he could stop the answer, Harry was taking charge. Ms. Brooks: What goes in hard and pink then comes out soft and sticky? Harry: Bubble gum Ms. Brooks: What does a man do standing up, a woman do sitting down and a dog do on three legs?" The principal's eyes open really wide and before he could stop the answer. Harry: Shake hands Ms. Brooks: What word starts with an 'F' and ends in 'K' that means a lot of heat and excitement? Harry: Firetruck The principal breathed a sigh of relief and told the teacher, "Put Harry in the fifth-grade, I got the last seven questions wrong"

Kicker doing the splits is an ability that has to be maintained. Slacking off in maintanence work will result in loosing the ability to do full splits. Say you miss a few days of stretching. And guess what? No full splits. And then there are days for all of us when we are tighter than others for a variety of reasons. Achieving full splits is one thing. Maintaining the ability to do them is another. Both require work.
