No. What's your point?

Mm Yan Chi Dai---The Cantonese expression Mm Yan Chi Dai, translates to "Misleading other people's children." The idiom is a reference to those teachers who claim an expertise in an art that they do not have and waste the time and treasure of others.

I've seen the advertisement. Have you asked how much they are asking? It looks pretty interesting. (Admittedly though, I'm a book person).

17 buttons, which includes shipping within the states. add another five buttons if you're shipping to the netherregions.

How much is a button in Canuck bucks? And what makes the book worth the money, other than the limited-ness?
(Remembering Tsui Sheung-Tin's book was ~US$300 with traced pictures...)

How much is a button?
Very valuable thing to have from the looks of it.
Like rene's book!

Looks really interesting.
On the same token, I am kind of scared about something entitled "bible." To me, that implies fixed dogma, and goes against what I like about WC-- flexibility and adabtability.
That said, I will probably buy it if a "button" isn't too expensive.

didn't think the idea of a button would stump you guys so much. a button equals a buck, a clam, one-fifth of a finsky, one-twentieth of a yuppy food stamp, one-one-hundredth of a benjamin.
in this case, it would cost your typical yankee 17 bucks.
rene -- for you, with five bucks more shipping and the exchange rate of about 1.56, it'd cost you about 17 twonies.

What's my point?!?!?! I found it kinda interesting, and thought some of you would as well. I also wanted to know if anyone else knew anymore about this Bible.
No juice...
Whohaaaaa.... Hold your horses!!!
The only real WC/WT/VT bible is the "Wing Tsun Kuen by LT". Atleast thats what I've been told...

Hmm, 17 twonies, that's a lot of Tim Horton's to give up, eh??
And shouldn't a "bible" be somewhat more old-testamenty? And is new testamenty post-Foshan era?? Who's nailing their list of protests on the VTAA door? When did Yim Wing-Chun appear to the ancient Native Americans? If I send $100 will someone Bai Fut for my health and well-being? Too many pop-cultural cliche parodies swamping what's left of brain...

rene,
yeah. seventeen twonies is about how much most canadians take home on their paychecks after the government takes its share, right?
dunno about all the other stuff, but i think we need to start a big wing chun family and take over utah like that other group did.
maybe we can ask heimberger's crew to be our advanced troops?

The man they call Mr. Bao
Wing Chun Bible? Who is the god that inspired the writer to write his revelation. I am curious to read it without wasting my cash on it, but it sounds pretty silly. Yip Ching is an interesting character for naming his book Wing Chun Bible. But everyone has their right to produce what they think of and believe is the gospel truth.
I am reading a non wing chun book called, "Brawl: A behind the scenes look at Mixed Martial Arrts competition," written by Erich Krauss and Bret Aita. A great reference and historical book on the modern combative sport of MMA. I would highly recommend it for any martial artist. I see MMA being the next international combative sport which will be more popular and accepted sport than western boxing.
Enjoy the read.

RTB - I think Quebec residents are one of, if not the, most highly taxed in North America. Even on the low end, you're paying 40-50% income tax. On top of that, you pay 8% federal and 7% provincial sales tax (and you pay the provincial on top of the federal so it works out to 15.5%). Add to that *huge* luxury taxes (a liter of gas here in Montreal was 80c for the last few days, now just down to 76.9), entertainment tax (on movies and such), and all sorts of hidden taxes. So, 17 twonies is just about what you can take home. But at least we get all this wonderful snow...
So what're the taxes and weather like in Utah? Why not invade Hawaii while we're at it??

I don't think he means Religious!!!!!!
The book may be called the Ving Tsun Bible for the folowing reason,
That was taken from Cambridge Ditionary online,A bible is also a book which gives important advice and information about a particular subject.
Vogue magazine quickly became the bible of fashionable women.
