I shot my first turkey of the year earlier today.
When the smoke cleared, I looked down from my perch and wondered why all of the customers in the frozen poultry aisle were staring at me with terrified and puzzled looks...
Sure do.... send pics of wife or female for trade
Good one........from your link info that included this extended version link.
In the martial arts world, there exists extremists from two opposing camps. One group will say that all martial arts are merely for show and exercise, and hold no practical values in the real world. And then there are those fanboys and snake oil salesmen who proudly boast to any ear that will listen that only THEIR martial art is the "best", "absolutely effective", and "only viable fight ending option" in the streets. Sound familiar? As a matter of fact, that shit is the same type of shit you will hear on forums about pickup trucks and sport utility vehicles. You cannot even hold an adult conversation without the vocal elements from both sides devolving into a shit flinging competition.
The truth? There are no absolutes in real life. There are no "effective" martial arts out there. If you want to make them "effective" for you, you have to know how to apply it to a situation that you are facing. The arm takedown in that video was carried out almost flawlessly and ended the confrontation right there. And aside from the loser's ego getting bruised and humiliated in front of the other passengers, it seems like no physical harm was done. At the same time, we have 'masters' of both centuries old Chinese and Japanese traditional martial arts who got their asses WHOOPED in the ring when facing off against MMA fighters, some who only have minimal training in competitive fights. 99% of the time, that happens because the traditional fighter entered the ring hoping to put on a movie grade show for the audience, complete with dazzle and pomp, while the MMA guy just wants to win the round and earn his promoters' continued support. This is what happens when you have the wrong mindset. It is like entering a marathon with the intent of showing the spectators your superb running speed. Yes, you will get to the front of the line in no time....... But there are 24 miles left to run, buddy.... Seems like you got lost, the 100 meter tracks are over there...
Oh shit... Did I just boop a thread that is pretty much self-booping, with no external help really needed???
Only Uncle Joe would want to neck size Michelle’s junk.
Plot twist: He just wants to know how big it is to prevent potential injuries to himself after intercourse... Hmm... On a slightly related note, I wonder why he stopped campaigning in the recent days... Butthurt? Like, really, literally butthurt???
I’m sure joe paid a terrible cost to get the Obama’s out of their giant house and campaign for him!
Very well put . If you want to train to fight in to days world . You better have a good stand up and a good ground game .
You also better have a good foundation in both .
The hard part is finding a school or group to train with , who understand there is no one martial art that has all the answers .
I have found that a open mind in martial arts can teach you a lot .
Learning from other arts can fill gaps in your own skill set .
watched this for about 5 minutes, waiting for it to start playing. Will probably keep watching. A throwback to dialup days
Is that the girl that played Wednesday Adam's? Got daym!
You chew through the lock, then I'll gnaw on the rest!
Best martial art I learned from Bruce Lee: "First, be not there..."
If I don’t get elected- we might all go to jail!
fast and furious emails/ phone calls could be leaked
More deals exposed
Damn! So much awesomeness in the last couple pages...
Oh, and...
BOOP!
Oh, and...
BOOP!
There is a quote attributed to a drunken Hillary on election night - "If he wins, we'll all hang!" At the time, most people assumed she was speaking metaphorically. Today...?
OT - from the Federalist website:
"Although behind in all major polling, Donald Trump is packing stadiums. Trump flags, tambourines, and switchblades are sold on the side of the road, homemade mailboxes bear his likeness, skydivers and boaters wave his banner across the horizon, and teenagers try to learn his dance moves. "
Seriously, I want a Trump switchblade. Has anyone seen one?
His dance moves?...?
And no, I haven’t seen a Trump switchblade but certainly want one for my knife collection.
NEW ANGLIA: A CITY CALLED SUSSEX ON THE BLACK SEA
A tribute to Yeonmi Park and all others who had escaped from North Korea to expose the horrors of that place to the rest of the world.
As many viewers here would know from a previous post, this woman, Yeonmi Park, had managed to escape from the hell lands of North Korea and come to the United States but only through a harrowing encounter with a shady Chinese corporate playboy seeking prostitutes for the dazzling high life of business moguls in Shanghai. Since then, she had been making video logs documenting the harsh reality of life for the common person in North Korea, a country far more resembling 1100s England under brutal Norman rule than the modern constitutional republic that they claim to be.
Refusing to be a victim:
Repost: Yeonmi Park's view on the 2nd Amendment and gun ownership in the United States and why it must be preserved and protected at all costs:
And now, a tribute to all of those modern heroes who were not able to successfully destroy the North Korean regime due to how outnumbered they are, but managed to leave the place, and continue the fight from elsewhere in the world...
New Anglia: A city called Sussex on the Black Sea...
The Harrying of the North:
Fall 1066: The last great Anglo Saxon king of England, Edward 'The Confessor', dies without an heir. A cousin and a close confidant whom he chose as his successor, Harold Godwinson, claimed the throne, continuing on the long line of legendary Anglo Saxon monarchs who had transformed post-Roman England into a regional maritime power and a center of academia and learning in a span of just a few centuries. However, this proclamation would be contested very shortly. Jealous relatives from across the narrow ocean passage known to the Saxons as the Whale Road, inhabiting a rocky stretch of coast called Normandy, quickly took the opportunity to seize England's riches for themselves. Led by a duke named William, who would later become the conqueror of this land, 1,000 Norman knights and 8,000 archers and supporting infantry crossed the Whale Road in three great waves of ships. Landing on the undefended coast of Sussex, the invaders sacked the southern part of the country, razing entire towns to the ground and slaughtering thousands of innocent women and children. Harold Godwinson's forces had been already exhausted and decimated, having just spent the earlier part of the year bringing down and finally defeating the Great Heathen Army from Norway, the largest assembly of Viking raiders the world had ever seen. The remnants of the Anglo Saxon army met the oncoming Normans in the September of 1066 at a field known as Hastings. They fought valiantly and inflicted heavy losses upon the invaders, but in the end, succumbed to the ceaseless fusillade of Norman arrows slicing through their depleted ranks like lightning through a dessicated forest. Wasting no time, Duke William, now the conqueror of England, immediately set his sights on subjugating the land under an iron fist. Anyone who spoke out against Norman feudal administration were punished severely. Towns were indiscriminately torched and massacred, and essential resources such as food and fresh water would be restricted, diverted, or denied from entire regions as a display of the price of disobedience. In a series of atrocities now known as the "Harrying of the North", Duke William's armies slaughtered and burned their way up to the Kingdom of Scotland in pursuit of the last remaining bands of Anglo Saxon fighters who refused to submit to Norman rule. When the Scots allied with the Saxons and Danes against William, their towns were burned in retaliation and their people massacred.
In 1075, several thousand Anglo Saxon warriors and their families who had survived the Harrying of the North finally boarded their ships and left England behind, knowing that any further open battles against Duke William and his descendants would be pointless. Throwing their luck and fate to the winds, the ships sailed down the coast of France and Muslim Andalusia before rounding the Strait of Gibraltar into the Mediterranean. After several more weeks of the storm plagued voyage, the Saxon vessels finally landed along the coast of the Balkan Peninsula. It was not long before the exhausted refugees realized that they had alighted onto a new land just as ravaged by war and strife as their homes that they left behind. For in 1075, the Balkan Peninsula and it's legitimate governor, Emperor Nikephoros III Botaneiates of Byzantium, was under siege from the same forces that had driven the Saxons out of England. In the previous decade, Norman mercenary armies under a plethora of Frankish, Lombard, and Bulgarian warlord leaders had occupied most of Italy and had now began to challenge the Eastern Roman Empire for land and rights to trade routes in the Mediterranean and Black Seas. Already facing severe internal rebellion from treasonous senators and now forced to divert his overstretched army to deal with a Norman invasion force arriving at the frontier of his fragmenting empire, Emperor Nikephoros was more than relieved when several thousand Anglo Saxon warriors barely weeks since their arrival in the region suddenly crossed paths with him and proclaimed their allegiance to his administration against the Norman threat. In the resulting series of battles, the Byzantine forces along with their Saxon allies crushed the Norman invaders across multiple fronts. A grateful Nikephoros realized how skilled and fierce were the Saxon fighters and incorporated them into his personal elite strike force known as the Varangian Guard. As an additional reward to these fighters, the Anglo Saxon warriors and their families were allowed to settle and self govern their own country in the Balkan Peninsula under the protection of the Byzantine emperor. They named it New Anglia, in honor of the homeland that they had been forced to abandon in a distant past. They continued passing down their stories and sagas in traditional Old English, and even their towns were named after their original versions. London, York, Sussex, Cambridge, and Cleveland... There, they remained a loyal ally to their Byzantine benefactors and defended the frontier land against constant raids by nomadic Magyars and Pechenegs, as well as the ever-present Norman threat, and later, the incursions by the Ottoman Turks...
