I was responding to Greg's question about "Kung Fu Action Theatre" in
response to the current drift about The Ring of Steel. Therefore, I was
refering to the moves based on martial arts used in The Ring of Steel
being based on the martial art of Aikido.
People reacting before they fully understand is one Internetism that
really gets on my nerves.

(As far as the 'real' martial arts go, new ones are being developed and
promoted all the time. Usually, these are new combinations and permutations
of moves from other styles, put together by someone with a big enough ego to
think he can get away with it. From what little I ever knew on the subject,
it seems like once in a very long while the big-ego-guy is right.
Ring of Steel is a stage group. So their 'martial arts moves' are for staged
fights. The rolls and falls are taken from Aikido. The attacks and defenses
are faked-up versions of whatever seems appropriate to the fight or the show.)

I also have the rotten habit of not reading through all the posts as well as
I should. ;)

'salright.
Anyway, back to methods of seeking.
One time when I was finished eatting at Connor O'neil's, I noticed that
the waitress had forgotten to charge me for my coffee. So for one of
the few times in my life, I decided to point out a mistake that was not
in my favor. To which the waitress said "It's free," and then Rivka,
who was sitting next to me, said "Maybe she thought you were cute."

Maybe Rivka thought she was cute.
(Opps. Was that my outside voice? I'll stop talking about people who aren't
here now)

Because my life already has more than enough chaos in it.
Opps. There I go again. Now y'all are going to go getting the wrong impression
of me... I think Rika's fabulous wonderful, and I'll kick anyone who says
otherwise.

I don't have the 12 hours transportation time to do it at the moment, but
don't push your luck... :)
Besides, depending on wordding, I may only have to kick the people who claim
_I_ think otherwise... (Yea, loopholes!)
More drift, anyone? I'd hate to monopolize it all myself!
