Hello from Texas:ultracool ! Í'm new to this board. (Obviously) But Í've read a lot of the posts.

OK , herés some info about me. Íve been doing TKD for three or four years.
Í'd like to learn to work with weapons, too. I also like chocolate, LOTR, windows computers, and sci-fi.

That's my $0.02, Í'd love to hear from anyone with common interests.

What part of Texas?:asian:

 

[Flamebearer]

The Big D!
Do I detect a fellow countryman? (texan)

 

[Ronald R. Harbers]

You got that right! Born in Big "D" and reside 50 miles southeast in Peeltown! I work in downtown. Do you like Kenjutsu?:asian:

 

[Flamebearer]

Kenjutsu? What's that?

Apologies for ignorance.

As I said, I started TKD 3 or 4 years ago.

 

[Ronald R. Harbers]

It is the art of the sword!:ultracool

 

[Flamebearer]

Sounds good to me :jedi1:

OK, gotta ask this: Do you use your right or left hand?

 

[Ronald R. Harbers]

I am right handed, though I work out left handed too! From what I gather from reading this and other sites, the Samurai all used the right hand, unless they used a two sword technique. Such as Myomoto Musashi, circa 1600 AD.:asian:

 

[Flamebearer]

Seems to me that one would want to be equally proficient on both sides - as is taught in unarmed martial arts


I mean what if you get your hand cut off (or whatever)

Have you ever try the Hawaiian mac nuts with chocolate from Hawaii? Most cities have shops the carry them today. Ono!( Hawaiian word for delicious). Saw the latest news? price of chocolates will go up in about two months..the largest producer of coco beans is in a war(Africa). Expect prices to rise and have shortage. Reese is my favorite.

Nunchucks, kamas,short sticks,knives and staff are the weapons we work with...yes, lots of fun! Good experience to know how to use there weapons. Enjoy yours....Aloha from Hawaii
