    I did not expect nor ask for a reponse. I stated very clearly what my thoughts and observations are. In the article I pointed you to read about Ninpo not being recognized as a koryu you thought that was a small organization? Nihon Kobudo Shinkokai is one of the largest japenese goverment...

    No more Captain Picard?

    If the money were right he would probably return. I think they are going in another direction anyway as was hinted in the last film "Nemisis" I think B&B are looking at a number of things and rethinking them. This can be good and bad ...only time will tell.

    Quote of the day. How very true. My sensei always would tease us with the saying " Looks easy, hard to practice". When you reach a certain level your technique become second nature. When technique becomes second nature it becomes smooth and fluid. When it becomes smooth and fluid you do...

    Interesting LG, that the state of Ninjutsu today has changed so much. I was unaware that many of the Ninpo practioners were so swayed to one side nowadays. What a disappointment for me. Hatsumi always taught us that Ninpo was the art of survival and that all arts had something to teach us. No...

    I wince at something that says it is Combat Effective. That to me means that in combat anything that works is effective. If you kick someone and they go down then you were combat effective. To survive in combat you must use your mind and effective tools to live another day. Number 47 you...

    When we spar we go full out and have enough control not to complete dangerous Kan setsu waza and similar techniques. We also wear full armor so that we can hit full force. If you partner is hurt then you cannot train with them. Sparring is mearly practice and must be approached that way. It...

    Skill is important. Technique for techniques sake will get you killed or at the very least hurt unless your very lucky. Street fighting is a mix of survival and using what you have learned in an intelligent way. Sometimes you must lose a fight or two before you learn that. Blindly going into...

    I also very much agree with what Synicism said. Remember there is no end all be all Martial Art. It is an art form this means there is a great intrepretation to the each style. All of them have benefits and All of them have their quirks. Darius

    Another interesting bit of advice on a subject I love. I will only say this this time.... Check out the schools and if you like it then it will be right for you. Bujinkan is like any other martial art in that it is only as good as the teacher teaching it. You must do the work to get the...

    Something humorously unhappy in last night's game.

    I like this thread. Interesting ideas but I think you missed a few points and a very simple solution to getting Ted out of the situation. If Ted knew this NPC was now evil ...and he ws intelligent then just blindly attacking would not have been what his character would do unless forced into...

    Ask Monte Cook some questions! Answers in this thread, next chat to be announced

    I like Monte's idea because it is very simple and to me it makes more sense than having to add all that stuff you put in there Gez. The more stuff you need to add to come out with a number the more confusing it can get when you make higher level character and from a DM standpoint I would...

    [Andromeda] Question (possible spoilers)

    I also heard the actress was alergic to the purple makeup. I like her new golden look it suits her. She also met a male of her race in an epsode a while back but that didn't really answer any questions about their race. darius
