  1. Ok, I knew that...Thanks for posting it for others
  2. "When you are able to take the keys from my hand, you will be ready to drive." - Shaolin DMV Test "All life is sacred, dont drink, eat, or fart when you drive".
  3. Seriously, I am a CNC machinist. Many buttons to push on the machines.
  4. Football gear works better. Oops, don't wear a Jersey of a rival/hated team of that area. Unless, you want to do a "Super Dave" skit.
  5. Good point...not to mention you have a larger chance of not even "thinking" about such a tactic.
  6. You should have goten a video camera and sent it to "Caught On Tape". I seen many strange video clips on that show, some were martial arts/artists.
  7. "Almost" true.....AMERICAN TKD Do you know why? I was in the American TKD "Gold Rush" in the late 60's to 70's. My instructor was Korean. I found this to be true from experiences with him, his financial accumulation and start-up capital, which he proudly stated, and those of other people with other instructors: In the development of TKD (no not ancient)., from what I found, it was around the 40-60's, the rush was on to get it exposed. The Korean Government and TKD Association (I forgot which was the first one) financed many Korean instructors to establish TKD world wide. The easiest "garden" to plant was the U.S. Upon arrival, these instructors quickly opened a school. Then another. Then another. They ran into a problem. Not enough qualifying "Black Belt Instructors" So they ranked students fast and curbed the training for fast food, er rank. In turn, those students, with the "coveted" Black Belt, broke off and opened their own fast food chain, er fast school chain. In turn, they rank their students....and now the McDojo sag continue. For a good Korean school, certification from the Korean Kuk Ki Won (I think this is the place) demonstrates many, many, years of training- Korean hard way. If the instructor doesn't have that, his other certification from an instructor whom may have that is good. Generally, quality schools have a qualifying instructor of many years. Which brings me to another point... How many training/experience in years do you think, is required, at minimum, to be qualified to open a school?
  8. Dr. Jules.... Dr. Jules..... Your'e wanted in Emergency.... Someone was hit by Dim Mak Chi..... The patient thought he was at a McDojo........... or Wendy's ordering Chi-li.
  9. Dr. Jules.... Dr.Jules..... Your'e wanted in Emergency.... Someone was hit by Dim Mak Chi..... The patient thought he was at a McDojo........... or Wendy's ordering Chi-li.
  10. Same as Chi, biblical passages, and God. Hmmnnnnn Don't bring religion in to it please. Im not trying to be sacrilegious, just a analogy.
  11. Your'e right, not even the underwear if I was physically walking by you.
  12. Let's face it, no mater how "high level" anyone becomes, another is there to higher.....in infinity. Chi master in a UFC ring: Just stand and get hit until the opponent gets tired or passes out from exhaustion....you've won!!!
  13. Same as Chi, biblical passages, and God. Hmmnnnnn
  14. Lets develop a new style...Pitful Kuyhn Do
  15. From what I have been taught, practiced, and researched, I agree. TaJi (Tai Chi) has a very fine line drawn as coming close to not being a martial art.
  16. Houdini had a method to take stikes to his adomen. He had conditoned his body, and mind to do this. One time, his mind wasn't "ready", and the story goes..... Now, if he were alive today, as he did with Séances, he would prove otherwise. Ask a medical doctor if Chi exists. Ask a physcologist if Chi exists. Ask a pastor, or person of high religious order if Chi exists.
  17. Then, how do we know they are "high-level"?
  18. I dont smell em any more I a m using Chi
  19. And so.....all the years of training, gone....at the sound resulting from the chemical changing of potassium nitrate,charcoal, and suflur propulsion of a projectile down a steel tunnel a super speed. Chi master, stop that!
  20. I agree Chi, is the mind believing it can or does exist. If the mind thinks its does, the body will feel it does. I have seen and read, people of religion do the same thing, except replace God/spirit in place of Chi. Some go as far to reject medical attention. Chi master: why go to a doctor? Let me stick you with that spear (one example).
  21. That's convenient. -What I have been pondering ....no Chi Masters in UFC and others. Chi in the military..... Chi in Medicine...... Chi in Psychology.... Chi in religion Man, Chi explains everything
  22. Not even "scentimental"
