The guy on the right in John Carey, who taught/teaches American Combato. He was blinded while serving as a Recon Marine in Vietnam, but continued training after his injury. Given his disability, I'm not going to trash on the guy for doing his best to continue in martial arts and make the best of his situation. but...

Sadly, it was actually better than the L.I.N.E. crap they were feeding us back then.
It was my first experience with RBSD...and, so far, last. -

i dont know, from the messages you leave, I'd say it could be true that you retired as a pro fighter, meaning too many hits to the head sustained. You must not have been very good then.
btw, I am a retired Rambo. :new_silly -

OMFG! LOL.
Still, 'Oh, Canada' DOES produce some very decent beer and ale. Little of it makes it to America though, it seems. Besides, ya gotta like a place where beer is served at places like a Pizza Hut..but you cant buy beer at a grocery store - have to go to a 'Beer Store' -- but grocery stores carry a full row of wines.
Also, it does have some fine fems -- though I cant vouch for anyones mom there. Omega, its IS a great place to visit...and sample its wares. I recommend you do so, one day. Think you might enjoy it. Stick to the big cities though.
This thread drifted abit - and its cracking me up. -

Don't challenge people before you are sure they won't smack you down. HA HA HA. If you read any threads besides this one you would......never mind that is what the search function is for use it.Last edited by It is Fake; 3/28/2005 11:05pm at .
