    "George never did wake up. And, even all that talking didn't make death any easier...at least not for us. Maybe, in the end, all you can really hope for is that your last thought is a nice one...even if it's just about the taste of a nice cold beer."

    "If you find the right balance between desperation and fear you can make people believe anything"

    "Is enlightenment even possible? Or, did I drive by it like a missed exit?"

    It's simpler than you think.

    I could be completely wrong"

    The relevant word in your post is 'different', not 'best'.
    its safe to say that I train some martial arts. Im not that good really, but most people really suck, so I feel ok about that - Sunfist

    The best style of kung fu is the mysterious style of Congzhu Laowai, it was first transmitted to mr. Ben Dan in Shanghai by a one-legged Taoist hermit in 1666.

    When 99.9999% of Kung Fu people fight, it all looks like Long Fist, no matter what style they train.

    Hu Flung Pu is a good style. but only if you are the kind of person that is willing to get their hands dirty so you can learn to fight.
