Nice to meet you Nick. I'm Dan. My friends call me Dan.

Don't sweat the obsession, man. What else is there to do? Might as well talk it up.

Hiya Bignick, I enjoy having you here on the board too. You know my daughter is 20 too. She was in St. Paul for two years going to school, so where were you when I needed you???? And she is a pretty little blonde, extremely independent, who hifalutid away to Arizona with a guy she barely knew. May have to send you after her...be prepared. :D TW

Hey nick! I'm a 1st dan in taekwondo. Good luck going for your black. They won't change my dang thing to black belt. It seems stuck on white. Do you do any weapons? :asian:

our school does limited weapons training, our main focus is taekwondo however...

as for your "white belt" this has to do with the number of posts you have...not your true rank...

Hey, bignick! I've already had the pleasure of your acquaintance during hunting expeditions here on MT. ;) Welcome. I've also been here a very short time - it's very easy to get on MT for 10 minutes between experiments or whatnot, gab away, come back later.... Sigh.

Hi Nick

I'm in a somewhat warmer climate, and we get the Packers as a home team. If you ever foray into Wis let me know

Where in WI are you from? I grew up in the UP just over the river from Marinette, which is about an hour north of Green Bay. I have family all over northeastern WI. And yes, I am still a Packer fan even though I live in MN now. I just couldn't jump on that bandwagon.:)

I am down in Milwaukee, although from my Mom I have family up in the Green Bay area. It is alot easier being a Packer fan now, than back in the 70's and 80's. BTW they looked pretty good last night. If ever in town let me know
