Okay, here we go. Everyone has to post pics or links to pics that show tacky martial arts uniforms (tops, pants, belts, or whatever). This is just for laughs. We are not picking on martial arts styles, just fashion sense. AoG

I have to admit that I love to sit down and play the Mario titles for the SNES. Those were nice, happy games that leave me feeling good. AoG

I have kept a strict martial arts journal since my first class back in 1991. It has gotten very large and has dates, diagrams, side notes, listings of who I learned things from, and dates. A few months back, I finally transfered all of it onto disc, then backed it up in my online briefcase ( briefcase.yahoo.com ). That was a huge task. It is my pride and joy. AoG

No, it was not a trip I took. A guy that posts at another board that I visit runs that site. He listed it and I found the vans unusual. AoG

http://www.gordonmartialarts.com/picture2006/picture-KoreaTrip2006.htm Check out the pictures of the vans in Korea. They have taekwondo advertisements all over the sides and backs. Interesting. AoG

That video is of Sandra Hess competing in one of the French Open tournaments. She is incredible! AoG

Leonard Cohen (I'm a massive fan) Beck Beth Orton Neko Case My guilty pleasure: Ace of Base - yes, I admit it. AoG

What was everyone's first exposure to the martial arts? I am not asking what inspired you to train, just what was the first time you saw it? Also, what year if you can remember. AoG

http://cosmicfighting.atspace.com/ Maybe we are just wasting time training here on earth! AoG

My wife has always been somewhere between supportive and indiffrent. I cast my vote for "indifferent." AoG

Poll question for instructors: How supportive is your wife or husband of you teaching?

Cynthia Rothrock used a similar kick in her movies back in the late 1980's and early 90's. The big difference is that Rothrock would bend over farther before the kick. Chloe Bruce does not bend over at all when she does the kick. AoG

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pYcA-srWKNk There is another clip of her at youtube.com now. Of course, you could just go to youtube and search her name. That girl rocks! AoG

Check out that scorpian kick! AoG

http://www.natkd.com/karate_katas.htm You can download those katas there. They are small files, so they won't take too long to dowload each one. AoG
