Thats a cool old man. He looks like a total badass in that pic. Canadian News is cool too. In America they wouldn't have full length stories about Martials Arts especially not history (Especially not Kung Fu, except movies. CTHD anyone.). Here it's celebrity this, celebrity that. People worship celebrities. It's sickening. The only MA story i've heard was about a Karate sensei starting a charity. Big whoop. Nothing against charities though. But we gets no respect

this quote is hilarious:Hoi usually trained his best students in monkey kung fu after they'd studied basic kung fu forms for 10 years, but offered Chan the honour after only six years, a fact that irked the school's older students. When they confronted the master and insisted they be allowed to learn monkey style kung fu too, the master agreed-and had Chan teach them. :I love martial wit,the students are all whiny,teachers like your a couple of arguing old ladies,you want to learn fine he'll teach you....THATS GOOD PRINT
