Congrats on your blue belt Greg and I really like your Grandmaster's sense of humor. Won't you be surprised to see that rope hanging out the window! LOL!

Congrats. I had my blue belt test on one of the hottest days of the year, and the A/C was out.

Great news, Greg! There's no feeling like it, eh? Why not put that info in your user profile—it's a part of your identity as a MAist, eh? Just a thought, but I find that that kind of information helps me get a much more vivid sense of the MA life of my fellow MT posters.

Congratulations to you and your wife!

Let us know how the rope climbing goes.

I fully expect to see a rope hanging in our Dojang someday.
