  1. One year? Only one year? Then you barely knew what was going on in TKD. One year in a martial art is like a 100 jump wonder. I've taken TKD for 13 years as well as what I talked about in the previous post. TKD, like any martial art, is only as good as your instruction and your ability. There is no magic self-defense art that works well for everyone. Whilst living in Korea, I sparred a lot with Korean soldiers who had been doing Tae Kwon Do all their lives. And I routinely kicked the crap out of them, with much, much less formal instruction than they had. Personally, I wouldn't touch Tae Kwon Do, either. For all the reasons Nightingale explained, Kenpo should do quite nicely. Sorry, Dave.
  2. Claymore mines don't kill people. People kill people. I'm sure glad the clacker has a safety clip, though.
  3. Just a way to see some retribution for all the inconveniences we have to endure because of y'all's skewing the bell curve. Legroom in public transportation tops the list, but there's also cabinets... do you realize how many fucking cranial impacts I suffer just so y'all can reach shit??? My Answer: I hate short people Oh, and yes, billvon's a duck.
  4. Excellent point. I may have to oblige then; that is, if Gia still wants to smell me on her finger.
  5. Because I already get tons of this anyway: Why on Earth would I want to cut off my hair, my soul, to get that of which I'm getting plenty already???
  6. How am I supposed to sing along when y'all are already done with the song?
  7. DLI Alumnus, Valedictorian. PM enroute.
  8. Nightly. Without fail. For years and years and years.
  9. It *always* is, Andrea. Or worse, even.
  10. I don't quite understand why, but *swoon*
  11. Most of them had it coming. Can't wait to hear your morbidly callous tune change. Hope it's not as a result of it's striking close to home. EDIT: Spelling/grammar/blah.
  12. Sinker's on a plane now, no worries. He missed my last little gem, too. Fuck.
  13. A little too much Jesus in your Corn Flakes this morning? no, just too many gun banning slags pissin in my flakes is all... But I say unto you, That ye resist not evil: but whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn and bust a cap into him also.
  14. Awwwww... there, there, now... *caress*
  15. A little too much Jesus in your Corn Flakes this morning?
  16. For all this time, I've been picturing you as a chick. Now I feel like a drunk Marine who was just starting to get his groove on with that shady Thai prostitute...
  17. How's that? Were you not here when the US Army had 20+ divisions, and now has 8; when the US Navy had 7 carrier battle groups (with infrastructure for more), and now has 5? The cuts weren't supposed to be that deep. Clinton accelerated them. I got my first briefing on the Reduction In Force (RIF) when Bush Sr. was still commander in chief. From what I recall throughout my time in uniform, including under Clinton, momentum of the downsizing more or less kept pace with what was laid out at that time: I don't recall an acceleration under Clinton, even though we weren't very appreciative (read: near-mutinous) of his election. Believe me, I was shocked to all hell when they showed us the present force strength (1992) and the downsized goal. I was sitting there thinking, "How the fuck are we supposed to handle any more than one front at any given time? Is fucking technology supposed to do it for us?"
  18. Ideally, yes. But how realistic is that? What are the potential costs/drawbacks to deregulating a very large and critical industry which has been built around the foundation of its regulation? *cough* *cough* California energy dereg *cough* *cough* You can't just paint the future with an idealist's brush; there are sooooo many facets to the question of deregulation of the oil industry, many consider it not worthwhile to even consider at this point (think big 5 consulting firms and study, study, study, $$$, $$$, $$$).
