Being the one person solely responsible for the forensic response in an international law firm of just under 40 offices worldwide makes me a very busy fellow. Sometimes the work/life balance thing gets totally off kilter. Easy to do when you're on call 24/7! Hapkido is a Korean martial art that blends the kicks and punches of Tae Kwon Do with the fluidity of Aikido and the joint locks of jujitsu. Or at least that's how it's described on my teacher's website! PATIENCE AND FORTITUDE CONQUER ALL THINGS. -Ralph Waldo Emerson DBing and MLC take their toll....Please provide exact CHANGE. -Jimbo

While I don't go looking for trouble, I know that I have a better chance if trouble should come looking for me! $\:\/$ PATIENCE AND FORTITUDE CONQUER ALL THINGS. -Ralph Waldo Emerson DBing and MLC take their toll....Please provide exact CHANGE. -Jimbo

Interesting training philosophy, though- weapons first, THEN open hand... I was looking into Krav Maga, but this looks very intriguing.
