I think this is fascinating. I like it when people can admit that their form of martial art is in some ways, "kind of silly". In fact, most martial arts are full of some pretty silly things which we either overlook or like.
"Upon the fields of friendly strife
Are sown the seeds
That, upon other fields, on other days
Will bear the fruits of victory."
- Gen. Douglas MacArthur
"We are building a fighting force of extraordinary magnitude. We forge our tradition in the spirit of our ancestors." - Klahn
