A feeble attempt-I suppose it's worth a try

SD,

Log out, then Log back In...

[red5angel]

R5, you dont even know the one true, Ving Chun™©, so you are wrong by default.

And you will not be able to log int apropriately until you relinquish your silly claims on the spelling of true Wing Chun. No need to copyright as it was passed down from my grandmaster, to my master, to me, so I am the only true spelling holder of the style.

[Meat Shake]

So you have copywrite by default. Touche, my friend, touche.

I have logged out and in. Stupid cookies.

Well, in my personal experience, it is very hard to admit in yourself that you have made a mistake.

It's even harder when you have years in on something.

But, what is really key is to get over it and accept it as a true lesson.

It is the nature of people to not want to be seen as idiots or to have it pointed out to them. Hence, most arguments.

so, we have 3 sides to all arguments, side a, side b and ultimately the truth. So long as the "truth" is only one side's interpretation, it is never the truth.

True discovery can only be made when you free yourself of supposition and what others tell you is the truth. You will always be subjective, that is inescapable when regarding the self, but you can be objective based on cross referenced information and of course bitter reality.

cheers

Well, I think the intention was very mature. I kinda applaud him for that. It's just the execution that needed a bit of work.

Well, that and this foul mood I'm in. If that spilled over, my apologies.

The foul mood is a long (and, I daresay, thoroughly unentertaining) story. But I agree with you. Trilobite is well spoken.

So my apologies again to him for being snarky.

And happy birthday to you, by the sounds of it.

[Meat Shake]

I havent decided wheather or not I feel like comming in to work tomorrow. Chances are I wont.
So... Yeah. Too bad I wont be 21.

Happy birthday SD er .. I mean meat shake. PM me the details .. I'm curious to why the change. Shame you didn't make it to a Lexington tournament before the change. I was looking forward to hanging out with you at the last tournament.

It not like I feel any sort of connection to today's shaolin temple anyway. It'll never happen, but approached properly it could be a good thing for our system, I think.

"Grandmaster The' is probably the ONLY PERSON in the world with a comprehensive knowledge of the Shaolin system. You should treat him in the same manner as you would treat the President of the United States or other world leader."



Uh yeah....right he wouldn't care. Then he'd have to give up the prestige of being the ONLY person who knows the ENTIRE Shaolin System.

Fu Pow,

It's my impression that it's his senior students that put him up on that pedestal.
To me it's like some kind of weird, "I can show my teacher greater honor than you!" And so, ridiculous things that he could care less about get worked up as "this is an insult to our Grandmaster!"
JP mentioned the uniforms, and it's a perfect example (and only one of many). Some in SD say "it's a slap to GM Sin's face to not wear a gi!" And yet, Master Mullins got GM Sin's permission to wear the traditional Chinese clothing. I know a SD teacher whose students just wear gi (or similar) pants, club t-shirt and a belt. He asked GM Sin what he thought of this, GM Sin said, "I'll tell you what I think. Whatever the teacher thinks is good for his school...IS good for his school."

Lots of things, including much of what is said on different websites, is the result of some kind of SD senior student competition for GM Sin's attention.

...and that was me saying way more than I should about my seniors.

I'm not gonna erase it though. I heard JP was drinkin', throwin' around truth so I'm jumpin' on the bandwagon.

Happy Birthday meat shake. Your birthday October 30 as well?
