Hello all. I am new to MT but have heard many good things from a friend of mine(Drac). I hope to get involved in many good discussions. My background is in Combat Hapkido and some of the Japanese arts. I have been teaching for 35 years and been involved in the arts for 37 years. I am a long time volunteer with the Rape Crisis center here in town. I look forward to chatting with all of you.

Welcome, and happy posting! :wavey:

Why "Father Greek"? My father is an English professor, and could never remember fairy tales; I grew up on Greek, Roman, and Norse mythology...

Hello Kacey,

Father Greek started as a nickname when I was a teenager. My friends said that if I shaved my head I would look like Telly Savalas of Kojak fame. I was first called "Telly the Greek" and then it got shortened to "Greek". It stayed that way until I met Drac who called me "Father Greek" and that has stuck for the past too many years. While I am of European heritage, I have zero Greek bloodlines!
