Jacob Posted June 22, 2006 Posted June 22, 2006 Make the driver take classes at your dojo. Maybe that will turn his life around! A hero is no braver than an ordinary man, but he is braver five minutes longer. - Ralph Waldo Emerson
NeoMstrSgt Posted June 22, 2006 Posted June 22, 2006 First glad everyones ok, second your sensei might want to talk to the prosecutor about having the driver buy you a new window as part of his or her punishment
parkerlineage Posted June 23, 2006 Author Posted June 23, 2006 The guy's insurance is currently fighting with my Sensei's landlord's insurance about who's going to pay what. Luckily, yet also unfortunately, I don't think he has a lot to do with it.We are finally going to get a real mat, though, thanks to insurance! We have to count our blessings, right?

bushido_man96 Posted June 23, 2006 Posted June 23, 2006 WOW! Man, that really sucks, for a lack of any gentler terms. Drinking and driving...stupid. I am sorry for you and your instructor. I hope you guys can get things back on track soon.BTW, was the driver OK? Did you guys prosecute? https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com

fosforlu Posted June 23, 2006 Posted June 23, 2006 Hearing about this incident makes me so glad our windows face a closed off courtyard not the street. So glad noone was hurt. And enjoy the squeaky new mats!
