Not familiar but cool. Do they do lots of breaking? Like boards and bricks. How long was the test?

Some recently unclassified documents show that the U.S. Government thought about nuking the moon during the early stages of space race. But they eventually decided against it since it'd make the moon radioactive, among other reasons probably as well.

That sounds like one of the "let's do this" "why?" "because we can" decisions.
Oh BTW muy, I finally got my black belt.
Awesome. Still stuck on red because of health issues.

Don't focus on breaking things. More low contact sparring and Makiwara boards if you're looking for actual contact. Other than that it's two person work, weapons work and Kata. Some Aikido and a bit of Kung Fu mixed in. Test was about 3 1/2 hours. Which is actually shorter than the brown belt test.

So, monkey man, how do you feel on your first day as a civilian?

It's weird not to be able to edit everyone's post. And it is harder to see where I have posted now. Ha.

So, from head ape to common monkey, usually these things go the other way, but a first time for everything.

Gilli, did your feelings get hurt recently? Is that why you're turning to slightly phallic photography?

There's plenty of space out in space. Check this nice little 20 min film about seeing Earth from space, interviewing a half dozen or so astronauts and philosophers (unfortunately I couldn't find it on youtube, it might only be on vimeo).
