monarchies should all be quashed and their heads should be crushed with stones.
one of the most despicable forms of governance ever.
it is leeching from the hard work of the many to put gold on the head of one.
inexcusable.
hard line anti emperor, anti monarchy speaking here because i think it is the height of human scum to claim divine right.
kill them all, without prejudice!!!
Hi Yahhh!
Kung Fu is good for you.
Sun Luk Dang = perhaps, Sun Lu Tang? The famous Tai Chi/Bagua guy?
this more fun than i thought.sorry not good speak. son can spek beter than me
chu yuk hing.
My father's first computer and he is happy to talk to other martial artists. My father does not understand scarcasam. He is a serious man in life and about his family's art. He looks very young for his age and is a great man.
As far as the question about styles; he teaches my family style of Tai Jo Hok Kwen. Strictly a fighting style, and in his day he was and still is quite a force. Forms are very old China and are rarely seen outside of the mainland.
He competed in the Nan Jing Tournaments in the 1930's and is very well respected. Left (escaped) China in 1948 to Canada via Indonesia.
Im his only son and now have almost all information on this style. Still waiting myself for all of it. I thank you for being kind to him.
Sai Jen,

I don't know which is more ridiculous:
A - That one person could have all the answers.
or
B - That collectively, WE have all the answers.
"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"
Tai Jo Hok Kwen? As in Sung Tai Tzu?
That is a huge style...too many branches to ever learn it all. Do you do the Southern style common to Fujian? Or the Northern more common in Hubei?
Those that are the most sucessful are also the biggest failures. The difference between them and the rest of the failures is they keep getting up over and over again, until they finally succeed.
For the Women:
+ = & a
Nan means southern. This is very exciting. Folks, I think we may have misjudged Mr. Chu. I think he just walked in at the wrong time.Originally Posted by Chu
I don't think he has anything to do with you know who.

but...
I'd rather know that it's one dude who's stacking things his way versus 100 or however many Representatives there are stacking things there way.
the 'divine right' thing has as much real clout as any religion.
but seriously, would one guy making all the decisions be any worse than what any of us have now?
at least if it is just one dude )or dudette( then target selection is easier.

"For someone who's a Shaolin monk, your kung fu's really lousy!"
"What, you're dead? You die easy!"
"Hold on now. I said I would forget your doings, but I didn't promise to spare your life. Take his head."
“I don’t usually smoke this brand, but I’ll do it for you.”
"When all this is over, Tan Hai Chi, I will kick your head off and put it on my brother's grave!
"I regard hardships as part of my training. I don't need to relax."
A good emperor or leader has many ministers and generals.
even though, the emp is the figure head. They all have a staff that are very and very competent.
The ministers and generals may serve 2 kings or emp's until they found and nurture good successors.
There are very good teacher/mentor to student/protoge relationships.
A good emp needs to know and hire or gather good people around him or her. It is the ministers or staff that make or break the dynasty or a family's reign.
The good ministers and generals enjoyed the same fame as well as the wise emp, if the country is well run and people live well.
Jun Cheng or the King and his ministers.

In regards to "sifu" abel's remark, I am not threatening anyone just posting an interesting article. No one will be gunned down, just your lame speculation. Why should I step, I have history on my side going straight back to the Emperor?Originally Posted by SifuAbel
This will be the last time I post on this site. You guys are full of too much nonsense, play make up forms (RD). Dont get me wrong not the style nor the original form is fake, just when you do it, seems to ring of fraud. I'm out.
