I've heard of the martial arts concepts of "Looking at the near mountain" and of "Looking at the far mountain"........

but, "Ignoring the mountain" ??? (and in this case, quite literally!)



-WP




P.S. - Whatcha doin' anyway? Practicin' to become a professional bear wrastler?

So. What technique are you working on:

Soto-makikomi ?

Tai-otoshi ?

Ippon Seoi-nage ?

Or are you just oogling the pretty girls.

It's a very advanced technique

I don't recall exactly - I was teaching a Kukishin Ryu workshop (and yes - I was talking to some students behind and to the side - not "ignoring the mountain" )

And States - I DO have some sandals and a straw hat, but I won't touch no steenkin' AK!!!!!!! Pyjamas are very comfortable when you're outside - they always let us wear them in the institution.......

Everyone knows 'Got FAL?' T-shirts are equivalent to type 4 body armor.

Matt has a plate in his head, so he rarely wears the torso plate.

What do you feed that guy?
