My ex-girlfriend's a jehova's witness. Try to topple that off.Schu wrote:I once dated the daughter of a priestBaraka Bryan wrote:i once dated a Presbyterian girl....
I still love her though, but obviously that part of her life will always be a huge obstacle. Plus since i'm a heretic to their eyes, she was in risk of being cast out just for dating me. So we broke up, but man was it a shock when she told me.
Edit: BTW, great family SM.
I'm more attracted to white women but that's just in the matter of fisical attraction. The rest of my family are the ones that seem to have issues about interracial relationships.

I do, practice Kendo, more exactly, Kenjutsu and I try to still live by the samurai code, although it is difficult to stay up on my practice, while raising kids. Once my son is old enough to begin training, we will train together. Thanks for asking. Do you practice any MA?cmsahe wrote:Very nice family!

Yes, I practiced Kendo for 2 years, fencing for 4 (Epée) and now I'm practicing Taekwondo, this saturday I'll have the examination for 8th Kup, advanced Yellow belt, and I collect swords too (I do the ocassional Milk Jug decapitation!). I PM the link to the Sword forum. I love Dune because of all the guide and tidbits that FH wrote on leadership (the politicians should read Dune!)SwordMaster wrote:I do, practice Kendo, more exactly, Kenjutsu and I try to still live by the samurai code, although it is difficult to stay up on my practice, while raising kids.

Ok that sword forum is really great I am not a collector because Im sort of poor, trying to raise a family. My dream would be to own a true masterpeice something in the area of $50'000 legendary peice, something like that would be a prize possetion of mine. I have a basic Orchid Katana by Paul Chen and I enjoy practice with this weapon. I am in my an-kyu (3th level), working towards my dan, so I can train my son myself.cmsahe wrote:Yes, I practiced Kendo for 2 years, fencing for 4 (Epée) and now I'm practicing Taekwondo, this saturday I'll have the examination for 8th Kup, advanced Yellow belt, and I collect swords too (I do the ocassional Milk Jug decapitation!).

You are correct about FH on leadership, although some of his ideas are still ahead of his time, even many years after his death. I plan to register on the sword forum, but feel very much under educated in all sword types and history, so Im trying to read up and become more knoledgable about all swords.

ARMA is excellent as a souce of self teaching in the history of fencing and swords (I do not mean to learn to handle a sword by reading "Learn to fly from home") Katana for beginners, lesson 1: "Get a Kendo instructor"

The Paul Chen swords are good swords, I bought last year a Paul Chen Viking sword.
Do you know Albion Armourers?:
