Jon Funk

[mickey]

Greetings,

I do not know how many guys here remember back to the late '80's and early 90's During that time Jon Funk was respected, his sun was on the ascent. It was only after he started writing articles that warned people about the "fake Shaolin monks " coming to America and the "fake" chi king masters making their rounds in America did he suddenly come under close scrutiny. His lineage and legitimacy was called into question: if Al Cheng did not achieve the right to teach, then how could he suddenly call himself a Sifu (or, HOW DARE HE talk about us when.....). Simply written, Jon Funk was given a pair of black eyes for endangering "certain" economic interests. And I do not think he has healed from it. Yet, I see people jumping on the bandwagon to stomp him without knowing the true origin of their own assaults.

nfboy, you do not seem like a bad guy. You may want to try info gathering this way:

Hi, I am from Vancouver. Who is the baddest mantis mothertrucker out here?

Only a suggestion.

Peace
