We're not getting too many RSVPs here, so maybe we'll end up having to reschedule it afterall.

If anyone can make it on the previously mentioned date, please speak up... otherwise we'll push it...

Hey Austin... it'd be great if you could join us. The date is still a few weeks out, so hopefully you'll be feeling much better by then.

Also, we'll pick an affordable place since many of us...

Hey Rub,

Who's up for another local lunch gathering? The last(?) one at El Arroyo months back was alot of fun, and I've spoken with several new people here in town that would probably be interested in...

Hey guys...

Something came up again for me yesterday and I couldn't make it. Did anyone else go? Or was it rained out?

What kind of sparring/practice is everyone doing (or planning on doing)? Full contact? Half speed? Pads/Gloves? Chi Saw? Throwing? Chin Na?

Yes, I can make a recommendation for a good Hsing I teacher in Austin.

Email me or send me an instant message and we can talk more.
