    Those that are the most sucessful are also the biggest failures. The difference between them and the rest of the failures is they keep getting up over and over again, until they finally succeed.

    Talking

    I doubt it, although I've posted it b4

    Don't hate the master pieces!
    All right now, son, I want you to get a good night's rest. And remember, I could murder you while you sleep.
    Hey son, I bought you a puppy today after work. But then I killed it and ate it! Hahah, I´m just kidding. I would never buy you a puppy.

    Ironically, "Warriors" come on a few nights ago on Cinemax and was featured on" I love the 70's-1979".

    So speaking of warriors, when is Natural tiger going to tell me where and who he is? I can't cower in fear if I don't know whom to direct it to.

    I quit reading when he got to Zhang Sen Feng.

    After reading that much of the article, I wondered if Tai Tzu is an actual style or if it's just something those two goofs made up for $$$.

    For an art that supposed to be a pre-cursor to other internal systems, it sure didn't seem like they knew much about their descendants.
    Wing Chun has lots of sayings. If sayings won fights, WC would rule the world (presumably by talking its opponents to death).

    Empirical evidence strongly suggests this has yet to happen.

    Tai Tzu is a real art, very real. I just don't think David Kash knows any of it. I believe his teacher, Chao Yuh feng IS a descendant of the Emperor, but I think he was not a Tai Tzu master. Instead, I think he does whatever Taiji, Hsing I and Bagua that is currently prevelant in his family. He may have done Tai Tzu too though, I don't know. All I know is EVERYTHING David Kash "Calls" Tai Tzu is Taiji, Hsing I and Bagua. His "External" Tai Tzu turned out to be varients of the modern Chin Woo forms.

    My personal theory, is Kash wasn't interested in Tai Tzu, because he knew all the Won Ark way stuff (Tai Tzu is mostly external till almost the very end, and he had plenty of external stuff at the time), he wanted internal, so he learned the Chao family Taiji, Hsing I and Bagua instead. I belive he just "Clings" to the history of the Tai Tzu, as a marketing ploy. He's been doing this for so long, that it's too late for him to turn back, and be honest about it, so he just keeps going as he's always done.

    I think he's a dishonest individual to begin with, so I don't think it's all that hard for him. My impression of him when we talked, was that he's a slightly delusion man, and to a point, may also believe his some of his own BS.

    I'd be happy to be an impartial ref if that makes Nat Tig fel better. I've got decent creds - reffed at Bolt's thing, and dozens of Combat shuai chiao and Judo events. Probably can even arrange a location that is moderatly safe...

    That's if Abel doesn't mind coming back North...I can promise both sides It'll be friendly, and professional - no BS allowed, just good sportsmanship.

    Course - I don't expect Nat Tig to follow up on this, just thought I'd offer...

    As for *Two* goofs, no, Kash was doing this back in the late 80's, apparently wile Chao Yuh Feng was still alive, I'm told. Seibert is just the latest goof to give him a serious amount of cash to hold a place in the lineage.

    The sad part, is it's not really too hard to find material on the system today. SC's John Wang has a set or two posted on it on the Empty Flower forum even. Over the years, I've managed to collect enough of it to put together an entire system of authentic Tai Tzu. Granted, it's a *Mad Sampler* of Tai Tzu from various lineages around the world, but I have begining, intermediate, and advanced sets of it well documented now. I defenetly have the "Essence" of it.

    Now the hard part of working it all out, and testing my results is all that remains. We'll see if I have what it takes to finnish this project in the comming years.
