You seem to be in love with that phrase, and you seem unusually threatened by my experiences for some reason.
I tried to reply to your desperate request for details before, but you seemed to have already put me on 'ignore.' What a shame...

Let me know if you are just dying for details about Japan as well.

Say, weren't you the guy referring to basically everyone who doesn't share your conspiratorial hysteria as "blind" and "sheep" and such? That's not attacking others or putting people down just because they have different views than yours?
Not too much of a ****ing hypocrite, are you?
Wow what a post whore.
let me quess, for anyone left that hasn't put him on ignore, he gave us that tired fairy tale of him learning tai chi and long fist from "somebody" in china. And then makes a another dozen quick quips that amounts to nothing. Am I right?
Like him or not, the man DOES have a point, Bob.

LOL, Drake, he does, indeed.. i generally stay away from flame threads, it's too easy to speak my mind.. if i've been hypocritical, well.. i'm just "me".. an unintended consequence of engaging in the nonsense.. i had hoped for reasoned dialogue, yep.. that's the dreamer in me..

But the thing is Bob,
you believe that those who blindly follow others are sheep, but then want others to accept your views on your authority only, while explaining how you came to your opinion in the most vaguest of terms. To accept your authority/view on your word only is the same thing as acting like sheep. You basically want the sheep to follow you instead of the other guy.
Thinking people like to be persuaded by the evidence. How can a reasonable person expect others to follow him based on his word alone while at the same time criticizing them for being sheep when following another path?
