My belt crosses in the back? I'm taking it back to Walmart.

Hmmn, I have to think about that.....

If a complete beginner has the idea to study more than one, then they have no idea which one to complete.

Yeah, and some are humorous

I do not have a belt in over half of the systems that I had studied. I got "belted" a lot though.

Hey, "listen" to the orange belt.

I had nevered ask myself in that way. Esp for anything that I desired. if one truely does not desire it, how can one excel?

Very good. But I will add more detail. Like what the Sifu said, wore, who else was there. Comments made. Was there humor,? Was it training, etc.

And a specific word, drill or routine?

Yeah, i know what you mean by complicated. And describing such is a difficult task. it will be like trying to describe a form/set to someone that hasn't seen a particular move(s). So I undersatnd completely what you mean. BTW, what is the term "to practice", or "exercise", say like a drill, or routine?

You write down information that YOU CAN'T get from books, videos, and "online". For example, three of the arts that I have studied, are not available this way. So, in order to have a reference, for any reason, a record is best. But if you study or look for a "common" art, then I guess you can find these already recorded.

Who me????

Heh heh, I think I hadmentioned the "quart of blood" technique in another thread. "most hardcore kill you in.....what a long a crazy title.

Mind your "P"s and "Q"s. And oh $ & cts. (I dont see the "cent" symbol)

Yep, I bet that will REALLY get strange. I get like you sometimes-repulsed, or how you say "narky". In the past, each time I came across this subject, I find controversy. I myself interpret or mis-interpret what someone else was conveying. Per your posts, I clearly understand/interpret what you convey. But I would add something, perhaps not what I really think/view, to get more responses, posts, opinions, info or to solidify my own. Somewhat like posting a "devils advocate" statement. Just throw out a statement and watch what happens. It is my sub-conscious "writing" flair to sometimes not ask directly or not give my straight opinion. I guess I am "complicated"

Thanks Shane

Keldog, The guy I has seen do it, his skill and timing with it is impeccable. I have yet to see someone "catch" his face. of course, he does it against on spinning and "aerial" tactics

Yes, and this is EXACTLY THE POINT, per discussion I have had in the past about Shaolin. Story telling has some inaccurancies. Say for example, one Buddhist I was talking to, stated where he read a old sutra of the tale of a Kshatriya (or Kshattriya, Kasatriya, Ksetreya, or Rajanya) warrior, leaping in full armor, higher than the tree tops, to fall a enemy on horseback. Among other extraoridinary feats this warrior had. The tale has been written with the "writers" exaggeration, thus through time, becomes legendary. "Hero", is no different than other action movies (Matrix/The Terminator, etc.) usig special effects and props.

Ah yes. The intepretation used in context with translation. But, if you were in a Etymology class. And the discussion or chapter is on interpretations (not the translation kind), you get a big green check. Per for cucumber and bell pepper, the subject at hand would be "cheng" separated from the others, and those others would be disected as well. But, this is not to state that it is for actual speaking/communication or translation for. Whic i understand/interpret your point.

Hmmn, how true of all of this post

I got you. I understand/interpret what you are saying. I find it curious on how others interpret and/or mis-interpret such. I would generally post something in lines of interpretation/mis-interpretation for other posts, views, opinions, or interpretations.

Yeah, but one could "over look" those. Some of the oridnary moves, costumes, scenary, set, etc., has some qualities.
