Hey Gene,

I was remiss and let my subscription expire last month, but I just caught your notice and resubscribed today through the Martial Arts Mart link you provided. Will it be in time to get the special and DVD? I would hate to miss out.

Today is the deadline. PM me if you don't receive your issue w/DVD in a few weeks. We have only received our advanced issues, just this week. Our subscribers have yet to be sent out.

Thanks for re-subscribing, sha0lin1!

Looking forward to seeing it! Renewed last month as well as bought some shoes and pants, although the pants dont fit the way I thought they would!

When should the Shaolin special hit the mag racks?

...if you can still find a newsstand that's large enough that it carries niche mags like us. :o There will be an announcement here, of course.

Thanks for the renewal, Featherstone. Which pants did you get and why don't they fit well?

I got the light weight kf pants, it's just a sizing issue of my own, no fault of the companies, gonna give them to one of my fellow students and get a larger size. Since my cancer I have had to make some adjustments some have been up to 3 sizes bigger then I used to wear.

For the record, they do take returns as long as it is in resalable condition, but you have to make a claim within seven days.

is all good, was an $8.00 purchase and my buddy can really use them since his current pair is falling apart, the guy is literally using staples and paper clips in places to hold them together. :D

Hi

I got my May/June Issue today the DVD is excellent, very well done. When Kung Fu Tai Chi Magazine arrives I have a had time " putting it down " meaning not reading it from page to page.

Dashanmen is interesting, I would like to see it.

Thanks

Ron

We tried to acquire a Dashanmen video, but we couldn't get the rights to one. There's probably one on the web somewhere. We should start a thread on it on this forum.

@Featherstone - paper clips? seriously?

Just a side note because Shaolin Temple Day also is my birhtday and that is just awesome, but when I was at Shaolin last year the monks were asking me if Shaolin Temple Day was a national holiday. They had heard that and I thought that was very funny. Too bad its not though.
