Anyone can call themselves a Grandmaster, it really has nothing to do with ability or merit. Grandmaster Rich Mooney, for instance. I'll look up some top female sifus, there's quite a few unsung...

There's a lot of us here who watched this little drama before it became a boring rerun on daytime cyberTV. We remember how it all went down, and it wasn't even close to what Ralek is pretending.

ATiger, thanks, definitly was not saying anything negative about you, your sifu, or the concept itself. Just using your statement out of context to point out that a teacher/student(s) in-school...
Very nice photos, interesting subject. One suggestion: provide a thumbnail page for people to choose what photos they want to view. Throwing all those oversized pics on a single page made downloading...
There is a very real power dynamic between teacher and students, along the lines of a boss/employee power dynamic.
As an example of that right here on this thread, African Tiger on his teacher:...
Jeezus aitch. :eek:
That was an incredibly frightening photo. There's like a hundred of those subhumans swarming all over her like giant rabid ants.
Think I'll start carrying my gun again.
Chris, I acknowledged your offer to make a match available should I truly desire one. May I say that that is, in light of your stated opinions about female fighters, most progressive of you.
My...
hahaha! No, actually, I did not make any assumptions from his website - I brought being hispanic up as an example of ludicrous prejudice because its the sort of thing I continually personally...
Unbelievable. Utterly unbelievable.
There are no adequate epithets to convey my complete disgust with you. You have managed to embody every cliche of classic knuckle-dragging sexism in your posts....
I realize that very few women study martial arts for its combat applications, but some do, and they are quite exquisitely aware of what they face in the arena. That's really the bottom line, and I'm...
... and you were there... and you were there... and oh! Auntie Em! You were there! And Toto, too!
:D
Yeh well all MA movies have crappy acting and cheesy storylines. ;)
I liked Prodigal, it's a funny flick for the genre, and tighter than most. The reason it's such a big woopiedo is because (even...
C. Martin, I have a question concerning this proposed "Women's Division". First, the link to the info doesn't work, please fix it. Second, am I reading this correctly - you are going to restrict...
Time for your nap, Ralek. Go dream some more about the ultimate video-fu school you are opening and all the kungfu losers you will beat up with your invincible skillz.
Back on topic: We have all...
We have a chinese guy in our kwoon. I know you asked about trouble with accents, and I couldn't say, he seems to be fine with it all.
I only jump in because last year something funny happened....
This is a very interesting question.
I used to think I didn't fear dying, until someone stuck a gun up my nose. I was very afraid then, not paralyzed afraid, but it was SO clear to me that I did...
CNN news article about "Couch Potato Pill"
' "It is possible it could become a drug of abuse because it would enhance the performance of athletes," he said. '
Har!
:D
Let's see:
- Heated, noisy debate going on
- Head muckymuck of Kungfu Magazine starts thread with very enticing bait: "Cameron" - just the one word, like "Cher" or "Madonna", or "Buffy", not...
Valhalla, Elysium, that's so yesterday.
Club DV8. Joe's Grill for after-hours. :D
What if ur a woman. Or a gay woman. Har. :D
Love in your heart is the root, the foundation of all joy in life.
You just keep walking your path, Ryu, you're gonna be fine. You are already the...
So glad to hear that when I reach 50 and I take on a 24 year old lover, I will be "virile" instead of a "dirty old lady". I've got something hot to look forward to, it seems :D
It's a shame that the Otherground forum has been renovated, there doesn't seem to be any way to get at the threads Neal was defending his love of child pornography on.
Just like the threads on...
Umm, looked like an old guy with his back against the wall, with people pushing on his crossed arms, pics billed as "Barry Lee's famous powerful waist demonstration". Whatever.
No one can be 100% sure about someone's identity under any circumstances. Even DNA testing is not 100% foolproof. My point is that we seem pretty happy to push it all under the rug because "we can't...
Imagine for a moment:
You are an eight-year-old girl, about 4' 2", around 70 lbs. You answer the door at your house, and a 5'10', 245 pound man 20 years older than you drags you out, puts a knife...
