Last movie i saw, (was with a date too!) was Borat. It was pretty bad. My date was SO uncomfortable. But we stayed to watch all of it. NOT a kid flick. They need to put warnings that it has semi-pornographic scenes.The best part was with Pamelas Anderson being harassed, but even still i felt pretty sorry for her. (she can really run in stelletos!). Not a good movie, don't see it.

Yayyyyyyy. I got .245!!!! Who's the man?

wow, i hope everyones x-mass is fun this year, usually my family wakes up opens stalkings, then has a continental breakfast followed by present opening. The present opening take time. We usually have lunch afterwards followed by a nap. The paper is purchased so that we may go shopping the following day. Unfortunately my grandfathers health has been poor, he has good days and bad days. my mom is working on thanksgiving and possibly christmass evening. My father is in Iraq, and my siblings are all over the place. 2 in spain, 2 in arizona, 1 in texas, 2 in sothern california, and that makes the holidays hard. So i think this year it will also be mom and i. I think i might want to try karate carolines chinese food on x-mass. Turkey makes me tired and its not really my fav. I love spiral honeyglazed ham. I hope everyones holidays are delightful. Shotkan kez i wish you luck in cooking a meal for seven, i am not nearly as ambitious. But you will have to share with us the results of your holiday. Happy Holiday!!!

i, uh, yeah, whats a stone? I do not recolect that weight measurement.

Good luck with the 3 sec. staff!

i would say: escrimas, numchuku, then bo. b/c each are similiar to the 3 sec. staff in their own way. Plus it could'nt hurt to learn some variety? If you learn alittle of the basics of all three weapons listed above then you'll be able to use them with the 3 sec. staff. Thats what i did. it helped. Be careful, though, in early training i had a bloody nose or two b/c i tryed to hard.

I would have to say double hooked sword, it's fun, and practical. I like the bo...but it is sometimes hard for me to practice in small spaces,such as in a house. If i were to choose a wood weapon it would be 24 inch escrimas/kali/arnise(the pair of sticks). You'll totally agree with me when you see "ong bak tai warrior"-movie!

Yeah, i do freestyle. most schools will allow you to work "at your own pace", i myself have sprained my left ankle (roll-out style). So i know where you are coming from. Just talk to an instructor at a school near you. Oh yeah not all dojo's(schools) are alike so you may want to look around at a few. Got any more Q's?

Food: Obviously turkey, cranberries (jellied), mash potatoes, corn, stuffing (Mmmmm....), it's my favorite american holiday!!! I think that it is sweet to make someone feel special by celebrating their countries holidays with them. But thanksgiving is more of a social holiday that is caused by the wonderful yummy FOOD! or at least thats what i have experienced in america.

i have the sweetest black lab, ,named phoebe!!!
