Got a zen quote for all of you:
The Monkey chatters
The tiger lies in wait
The sage drinks his wine and humbly walks down the path.
Which one are You?
Many respects,The Willow Sword

It makes me mad when people say I turned and ran like a scared rabbit. Maybe it was like an angry rabbit, who was going to fight in another fight, away from the first fight.

in regards to trained fighters losing in the street: I'm reading a book called 12 fatal leg attacks or something. In it, the guy says the most important things in this order are
1. courage
2. power
3. skill.
I don't throw this out as rhetoric, but to make a point. To be more qoute-ey Robert Smith in Martial Musings talks about the "environment" of streetfights as opposed to the environment of ring fights. A thug/ crook command of the street environment is better than yours. alright I'm rambling
Hands down, the best line of this entire thread was made by Mojo with this gem:
I ROFLMAO after reading that!Volcano Admin talk like Tanto. Him no makim sense.

* This thread is NOT POINTLESS!
Its an avenue for us to inflate our fledging ego's in an enviroment where its fairly obvious that no actual violence or real reprocusions can come of it - the internet "
I stand corrected. Carry on...

I am the monkey drinking the wine from the jug dropped by the sage when the tiger jumps him on the path and eats him.

Thanks for the kind wishes. Yea, of course I've been training but have also been doing a lot of traveling for work so I'm not there as much as I would like to be; but I guess quality time is better then no time at all.
Last night was fun. Did a little banging around. Learned a lot. What I like most about my teacher is his aproach: no form, just get the idea and now put it to use.
Be well. Happy halidays.
Evolutionfist,
What style of tai chi do you train?
**Tai Chi and Hsing Yi Books**
I don't. I would say about 90% of my training right now is Hsing-I based. I really enjoy it and I believe it fits my personality. I do see the benefit of Ba Gua though, the mobility and adaptability.
Also, every once in a while my master shows me what's coming ahead in the training, his E-chuan method, which is really my intrest because when I see it, or feel it, it just feels right -- like the truth to me.
He does teach Taiji though, too.
In the end, I just absorb whatever he's teaching because its working.
