I had way too many fights when i was younger. No details required:D
My fellow apprentice and me hated each other.He poured pop over my head in a packed canteen.I saw him on his own after and kicked his ass!
I disliked that mother! He got sacked soon after for bad timekeeping.
Another time a relative went crazy at a barbie and started throwing glasses about etc.
I had to put him down too.He just lost it..
That said,i'd rather talk my way out or walk away.

I recall it was " I play you like the cheap one-string bass you are!":D :)
That was during the board wars on the official site. I also recall a lot of equally comedic moments such as the chain story,
Judge Dredd handing out stupidity citations and posting WANTED POSTERS,
The message board maniacs song and the songs we made up that followed it.
The news broadcasts from Color Commentator about you skiing over some old ladies house and her chasing you away wielding a broom.

I just bought a new PC and hooked up the net last month but I've spent a lot of time transferring files from my old computer. Not as easy as it sounds considering my old PC was a second hand unit obtained from Fred Flintstone. I finally bought a new PC when the two squirrels that powered the old one ran away with the nut I dangled in front of them.

I have read a number of the threads posted here but found it hard to jump in with my own point of view in the middle of the conversation. I will however bring this post back to the topic at hand.

I remember Lonewolf from France. If I remember right we both had studied a similar sounding art. Kwan Ki Do and Quan Ki Do or something like that. The old timers here might recall that I'm a martial arts instructor that started training in the mid 70's. I was a bodyguard for ten years and developed a reality based self-defense program.

Haven experienced numerous physical conflicts I've discovered that one has to assess the treat level and react accordingly. The reaction has many variables that have3 to be considered. The number of attackers, the aggression of ones attacker, the amount of skill one possesses. The legal liabilities if one over reacts.

The main point is if one uses physical force to end a conflict it should be a last resort.

Respectfully,
Rev.Dean
A few years ago you sent me the link with clips to your self defence site. If you still have it pm it to me please.
At the time i remember telling you i enjoyed it.

Hi Reverend!
it's funny we both did the same art from both side of the Atlantic!LOL!
In France QWan Ki Do split!Your instructor must have been studying with
A US instructor from New-York called Patrick kelly!
Very good practitioner!
Peace!

Through I am more of an intellect(Rather read a book about fighting than experience it :) I have been in two. Both were draws. Now days I box in my spare time and have gotten quite physically fit so I am not afraid of anything I might face. A key to winning a fight is to relax your mind. Believe me choreographing it the night before in your bed does not work. So just stick to your dreams of defeating the evil dragon and rescuing the princess from the tower :) In a fight you have to stay confident. Make sure your hands to not tremble try to boost yourself(Your ego). Overconfidence works magic. Size does not always matter it's something called guts. If you have guts you are unstoppable. Well to a reasonable degree but you get my point.

I sound like a Boxing Promoter/Coach there. Maybe I can replace Mickey in Rocky 6 :)

Hi Rev Dean :), and Storm and all!
Am reminded of a bit of wisdom from a Hapkido instructor: best way to react in a fight situation: run away.
He would have us spar until we were ready to drop and reminded us that in a "real" fight we'd get tired, and probably injured, and had to know how to keep going despite; yet still reminded us that the best solution is to walk away, run away: avoid the fight if possible. Use only enough force to subdue the attacker, then leave. It isn't about kicking arse, it's about self-defense.
Haven't had to put that to practice on the street but have had to get very "aggressive" when a new student decided she was going to spar in class like she would in an all-out tournament. I introduced the back of her uniform to the wall until she figured out she wasn't in a tournament anymore, just class. She never came back to class after that. I heard she later joined a school where they fight all-out without any protection gear. Guess she found her calling.

Some little tague threatened me today...

Hey Rev! Good to see you - I've missed you man. Your one string bass remark remains one of the funniest things I have read, dude. Aikilove's violin face description comes pretty close too. We had some good times on the old board...

Anyway - back to the title of my post - I was very angry today... the manager at work had a go at me in the morning and then in the afternoon, some little freak attempted to walk out of the store where I work as a security guard with a bunch of CD's, saying that if I tried to stop him then his mate would "do" me. Hahahaha! I sniggered quietly to myself as I imagined the things I was capable of doing to the **** and told him to go and pay for the CD's. So his mate comes over to me acting smart and tells me he's going to get me in a headlock while his mate walks out with the CD's. I smiled and said: "You're going to TRY to get me in a headlock, my friend". I was getting pissed off with them now, but tried to stay cool. Anyway, his friend gave me a bit more attitude and left and went to his van. The other guy went and paid for the CD's but as he was leaving he said to me: "My mate would kill you, you know. And if he didn't kill you, I would!" I was like, what the **** are you on, man?! I'm just standing there doing my job and this little beaut is giving me attitude! So I said to him: "Whatever, mate. Go get your friend". I was relishing the thought of kicking his ass! Hahahaha! So he goes to his mate's van and they drive around to the front of the store and just sit there, watching me. I was getting really wound upat this point and could almost visualise myself tearing the door off his crappy Ford Transit van like Superman and caning them all over the carpark! The night before I had been bicep curling 50kg weights and felt like some kind of man-machine, filled with confidence and power. So I coolly walk out of the store and towards the van, which drove away at high speed, leaving me disappointed and frustrated. Hahahahahahaha!!! Anyway, hope you enjoyed my story. Goodbye.

Hey Storm, and Amos, and Glimmer!
Yes, I have a wee bit of time here now and then between pulling weeds out of the garden that got 7.5 inches of rain this month! Not to mention the hungry little bugs that I pinch off into a pail of hot soapy water! And now the rains have stopped and it is getting hot - 90+ this week. At least the roof doesn't leak now lol.
Peace

Hello my dudes. Lonewolf, no, a member can't edit another member. That feat can only be performed by the powerful moderators. I was just amusing myself by getting lost in the ether of my thoughts.
