Yeah but we could all out drink Mark. 😛
He was the toughest fighter among us at the time.
I'd bet the worst one could beat Mark now though. 😀
(Ironic, the weakest fighter among our little group ended up a 7th Dan
Shi dan I think isn't it?)
Originally posted by wormwoodI did pretty good, I just heard it when sensei was counting.
almost: shichi, hachi, kyuu, jyuu. 🙂 although 'ku' is also 9, in a different context. (most japanese words have two pronunciations, on-yomi for compound words, and kun-yomi for separate words.)
He must have had OCD, he loved to count reps. 😞
Originally posted by Ice ColdIt was fun studying Shotokan and MDK at the same time and learning the japanese name and korean names for the same move and keeping them straight. As for counting, I think it was standard in all of them to yell on the 5 count.

Originally posted by Ice ColdI wish I had a dollar for everytime I was on the recieving end of one of those knife edge kicks. I think he was as fast as Wallace whith his feet. I remember sparring him once (he talked me into to after a ski accident he had the prior weekend) and he planted a text book perfect roundhouse kick into my chest that I didn't see or feel until his foot was back on the ground. I had him for german and anthropology too. One of the pluses of Karate lessons at his house was that Anna was a sun worshiper and in a skimmpy bikini most of the summer. Was hard to keep one's mind on class.
