I'm new to martial talk and just wanted to say hi.

A little about me: I live in Merced Ca. and study Kobayashi-ryu karate and kobudo & Omori-ryu Iaido in Fresno. I frequent e-budo so maybe we have chatted before. Look forward to learning from you all and maybe able to add a little to the running discussions. If you have any questions feel free to ask.:)

Welcome to MT, Twayman. Good to have you here.

If you have any questions about the site, don't hesitate to ask.

Also, if you need any animal dressed as a bunny, pancakes or a decoder ring, I'm your guy.

Welcome aboard the ...umm...board. I'd love to find a good Iado instructor in my area to study with but they are very rare around here in Virginia. If you have any questions feel free to ask a mentor or moderator and we'll do our best to help you out.

Many times I feel the same. No, don't go to UCM but I hope to finish my Masters there (if they offer a degree in my field). 3 cows? we just opend a new Micky "D"'s now we are down to 1 cow and she is scared. :uhyeah:

Small world, my aunt lives in Santa Clara. I'm trying to find a Major that is offered in UCMerced for, it is about 3 miles from my home. The next closest is UCFresno that's 60 miles away and I already travel to fresno for Iai. Wife just hates the distance with the price of gas going up all the time. She would have a cow if I added to the trips in getting another degree.

Well, sounds like you could use another cow there anyway.

I did my applied math. degrees at Brown, in RI. They have a large division for it there.
