ok let's hear it, what MA goodies would you like for whatever dang holiday it is that you celebrate?

bonus points if you can get the item from Martial Arts Mart.

Here's mine:

• half a dozen more cold steel throwing knives
• headgear that doesn't suck
• a set of those spring grip hand strengthener thingies
• more time to train

there is a good thread on broad sword.

my Dao was broken at the tip.

I need some cotton tops. The current ones were shrunk from the dryer.

I am still saving for the Han Wei Adam Hsu sword or Tai Chi sword.

I hope Ming yue doesn't get married to that death guy.

You know she won't be around much after he starts using up all her time.

This year, Santa is particularly good to me. I didn't have a wish list but he or in this case she (my student) delivered a surprised early present. My student went to Virginia and Washington on a company paid training trip. She bought back a book and a magazine for me. The book is "The Method of Chinese Wrestling" by Tong Zhonyi (1878-1963 CE) and is translated by Tim Cartmell. An old text of Shuai Jiao with lots of great photo of past. The magazine is "Bodyguard" which is not available in Canada [Darn Yankees keeping the good stuff for themselve. :D ]

Thanks you Santa! Oops, I mean Crystal. :D

I want more pictures of IronFist. Ming, did you check out the "New Pics" thread under the Kung Fu Training and Health heading? SWEET.

Did IF let his feminine alter ego out? :p


Shame on you for objectifying IF. Without him this board would be sadly on-topic most of the time, and he's a wealth of fitness and health information. For pete's sake don't be so shallow.


dayum. just opened that thread.


uh.. what was I saying?

nevermind.

headgear (on the way)
thai shorts (on the way)

I kinda have an unfair advantage though, as the head coach will order anything I ask him to (it's our way of getting paid)

A new guitar.
Time alone with the lovely Mrs Rogue.


7*, I asked Santa to get you some street cred this year. He told me there are somethings that his elves and even the magic of Christmas just can't do. :D

If I bust the jolly bearded man's head open then steal his toys, how much cred will I get?
