I just booked my plane ticket and room for me and my sifu. who else is gonna go?
other then gene.
I'm going.
May even fight.
My cell and email are the same as they used to be.
We can hang out like we shoulda the last time at the wong.
If not, I'll take it as descrimination for being a yankee fan.
Everyone else comin, feel free to give me a hollar and we can go do some fun stuff.
I still say Fort Worth's downtown's worth the extra 20~30 minute drive.
-Jack Dempsey ch1 pg1 Championship FightingWhat would happen if a year-old baby fell from a fourth-floor window onto the head of a burly truck driver, standing on the sidewalk?
It's practically certain that the truckman would be knocked unconscious. He might die of brain concussion or a broken neck.
Even an innocent little baby can become a dangerous missile WHEN ITS BODY-WEIGHT IS SET INTO FAST MOTION.
I'll be there cornering for a couple of San Shou fighters.
My Sifu is a judge and sometimes participates in the masters demonstrations.
I may go to watch, but I won't be competing; I need to train more.
Could someone post a link for the event. Not sure when or where it is?
Thanks
The place is relavtively small. There will be like 1,000 or so competitors, but it's a one big open room and eventually you'll just bump into people. In between sets most people just hang out in the lobby. There will be lots of vendor booths, and you can pick up weapons and uniforms (yeah Jonie Uniforms) cheap cheap cheap.Originally Posted by Shaolinlueb
I suggest we meet up wherever Gene or Gigi is buying lunch.

Don't let the name fool you. This is the premiere Chinese tournament in this part of the country.
The building is within walking distance of Six Flags, The Ballpark at Arlington, and Hurricane Harbor.
It's still at the plano center right?
That's at least a 20 minute drive from all those spots you mentioned in arlington.
I guess Plano Station is close by so you could catch public transportation down there.
I don't mind drivin folks around when yah get down here.
In the future I'd like to start plannin some kind of yearly after party(s) for KFO members (and anybody else who wants to come), so we'd have some opportunities to hang out without the hustle & bustle of competing.

My bad. It was at the Arlington Convention Center the last few years.Originally Posted by Pork Chop
does anyone know the list of masters attending?
i want to meet GM david chin.
...this way, we can look at this again next year, just before TJL #10.
I had a great time this year. It was fun to see all of you face-to-face. I'm sorry I only got to chat with MK for a fleeting moment. But it was nice to get to hang with SLL, HSK & HTD for more time. My only buzzkill was that there was some snafu with the delivery of our new issue, which just happens to be the Chin Woo - Huo Yuan Jia special. We did everything right to send them to arrive on Friday and Jimmy Wong and Patty Sun did everything right to pick them up, but the hotel just told them to get them today. We're sorting out whether Fedex or Holiday Inn was at fault there. It's all down to what the devliered to signature says...
BTW, did you see MKs Shaolin thread? Maybe I'll merge that one up here too, once it simmers on the Shaolin forum for a while...

I tried to track you down before I left, but you are a hard man to follow through a crowd. It was like the ninja training sequence in Batman Begins....you were in front of me, then gone, then across the room, then behind me...Originally Posted by GeneChing
...if I'm so ninja-like, how come the "when you put me on cover?" people always seem to find me?

Because the power that drives them to make this request is the same power that fills a room with their essence. lolOriginally Posted by GeneChing
(p.s I don't mean essence in that sense)
Kung Fu is good for you.
