Hi guys,

I know that I have not posted much in the past month. I have began a most excellent career with Edward Jones. I am working in the background and compliance aspect of potential hires. I am responsible for the U.S. and Canada. Lots to do.

Anyway, my recovery is going great and things for me are looking up. I have been asked by GM Hildebrand to update and more or less take over our organizations website. www.moosulkwan.com. Also, in mid-March I was given a key to open our school. That is reserved only for the red or black belts. I am only a blue in MSK. That means I have purple and brown to go before red.

To cap that off, this past Monday I was asked to substitute teach class by one of the Master instructors whose having a hard way to go, he and his wife are having kidney and intestinal health trouble.

My dan is in judo, not hapkido or tae kwon do. However, I spent an hour of helping the 6 little guys and 2 little girls to prep for their yellow belt test that is coming up soon. I love teaching, it is always fun to see serious minded students trying really hard. As a treat I let them play dodgeball for 20 minutes till the end of class while I worked on my stuff.

Sorry folks that I haven't posted much in the past month. It has been quite busy, take care all and happy easter tomorrow.

Thank you Matt! Happy Easter to you and your family and all your many friends and also to your few ‘enemies’.
Interesting web site (www.moosulkwan.com). I am looking forward to see the contributions and updates that you make. Good luck my friend, I understand so little IT/Web stuff but it seems like it will be a lot of work.

Hi Matt, we seem to have a lot of similarities. I very much remember being given my key to the gym, I am the webmaster for our school's website, and I have recently fallen in love with teaching as well (I am much better assisting than being the only one in charge though by far!!!!) Oh and I have my own recovery to look forward to! Best wishes to you Matt, you are on your way to great things!

Geeze Louise, if this gets any sweeter you are going to have to go on a diet. Da-ammmm.

See, you need some one like me to bring you back to the real world.

You are very welcome. :)
