Ah, you are mistaken. The fact of the matter is, only a ninja can know about International Talk Like A Ninja day.

Hardly, that's for a completely different, non-ninja-related purpose.

I dunno, in a triumvirate a decision must be made as a whole, and unanimously. I doubt he would agree to being excommunicated!

History channel is doing one as I am typing now.
CNN had something about it for a while.
There are probably more.

We aren't going to dedicate this day to mourn for a tragedy forever. Isn't it enough we all know what happened and it is written in the history books? We don't do much dedication for the end of ww2 or the end of the cold war.

thank you i didnot know that
and i understand what i am saying but this happend less than a decade ago but since there are some things about it then i guess i should not have made a big deal about it for now. also 9/11 is still directly affecting us today , not to say that the end of WWII is not but i mean that we are in a war so i guess thats what i was tying to say i should have thought it through better.

im just saying that i dont think we should forget it!

Yeah, it is similiar to the taoist form, since the taoist form is based on the yang one. They do differ fairly well from each other in the execution of a few particular moves though.

The weapon forms are amazing, especially the wudang sword form, which i would like to learn at some point too. Unfortunately that might not be in the near future, due to my current financial situation.

The aesthetic value of tai chi can hardly be disputed, but i see it only as a side-effect. The external movements are but a mere reflection of the inner workings, and in order to being able to fully appreciate tai chi, the hidden beauty of it has to be considered as well - yet, since that cannot be directly communicated nor observed, it has to be experienced.

I'm just comparing myself to professionals, so maybe I'm being a tad drastic.
Probably. I cannot say i am even close to being able do my whole sequence of moves with similiar precision, strength and endurance as some of the more proficient people i know of, but i cannot say that my problem lies in the smoothness or flow of my movement.
And yes, i have been studying the 108 yang long form for half a year now. Took me quite a while to memorize the sequence in its entirety...

Ah, most fortunate for you.

I find it unexpected to see you having trouble with smoothness, despite your easy access to a professional, and the very long time you've spent practicing. Granted, some of the moves are particularly tricky to execute, but i always thought it was a matter of practice and concentration.

I'm not taking everything into fact, only two things.

1. His site is the best in the universe.
2. Pirates<Ninjas.

Gotta believe in some media; lots of things based on Star Trek has been realized (cellphones, various NASA experiments, etc). I bid you good day, sir.

"Has your site ever received an award?

Yes, in fact, I recently gave myself the "Best Damn Web Page In The Universe" award"

"I decided to give my site the award because it's the best site I've ever been to. I love everything about my site. It's the best."

We all trust Maddox's opinion, good day to you again sir.

Okay, so he's also very opinionated. Simply because one person says something doesn't make it true. If that were the case, flying cars would've existed by now because of Kevin Smith's short five-minute film " The Flying Car". You can't take everything as a fact you know.

You can not say that Maddox is the best page in the universe, that's completely subjective!

And since that one statement is flawed, the rest of your argument is flawed!
