19310. uzmakk - 4/28/2006 9:10:29 PM Let me rephrase that -- Of all the disciplines mentioned it seems to me most likely that ju-jitsu is the one you might be able to pick up from a crusty old bastard rather than a sensei. 19311. uzmakk - 4/28/2006 9:11:58 PM Thanks for the pleasant afternoon, Moties. 19312. Adam Selene - 4/28/2006 9:27:24 PM The Bujinkan "franchise" (for lack of a better word) that my school is part of is not militaristic like that at all. We're definitely more self-defense oriented than sport. There's an international dojo list here: Authentic Ninjutsu around the world. Use the menu item 2nd from the right on top.
Here's a picture of me with the last "Tai Kai" where our Japanese grandmaster (34th in a direct line from the true ninja clans) visited America and taught a 3-day seminar. Attending was a true highlight of my life. Tai Kai 2003 You have to figure out which one is me... ;) 19313. uzmakk - 4/28/2006 9:36:10 PM 2nd over, bottom left corner. 19314. Adam Selene - 4/28/2006 9:39:53 PM lol... 19315. uzmakk - 4/28/2006 9:45:06 PM Massive beard? Red tee? Dew rag? 19316. iiibbb - 4/28/2006 9:45:46 PM I only know 3 facts about Ninjas
Facts:
1. Ninjas are mammals.
2. Ninjas fight ALL the time.
3. The purpose of the ninja is to flip out and kill people.

baby Trump 19321. wonkers2 - 4/28/2006 10:16:39 PM Just a tad! 19322. Ms. No - 4/28/2006 10:36:50 PM Dawg, I'd be hiding my face from all of that too! 19323. arkymalarky - 4/28/2006 10:47:01 PM The only thing I can think is that with all that money, surely he could find something more effective to do with his hair. Looking at that picture, it's obvious he just doesn't know any better. Like Marty Feldman in Young Frankenstein: What hair? 19324. Jenerator - 4/28/2006 10:48:35 PM Are you all looking at the stroller pic? 19325. arkymalarky - 4/28/2006 10:49:52 PM Yep. 19326. judithathome - 4/28/2006 11:12:28 PM So he's pretentious...what does it matter? It's no more pretentious than someone draping their baby in Christian Dior or having toddlers decked out in Ralph Lauren.
Angle of repose, people. 19327. arkymalarky - 4/28/2006 11:23:44 PM It's funny, pretension never even crossed my mind. Gaudy did, like Graceland. I've always liked him when I've seen him on tv. 19328. arkymalarky - 4/28/2006 11:26:34 PM And this web acceleration is great. I wouldn't have been able to even discuss that picture before. I'd always just stay out of picture discussions. 19329. Ms. No - 4/28/2006 11:37:20 PM Yes, I was thinking eye-wateringly gaudy.
