Did I hit an optic nerve? Didn't mean to, never even watched the show. But I am a straight guy. Amazing how "tough" you fellas are. Real scary.
That last one went right over my head. HCP, I didn't see anything about a show or a reference to you being gay. Did I miss something?
Jack - Can you find a shorter nickname for me than "Can't we all get along"? If you knew I was a fighter it would take out the surprise, wouldn't it?
Are the techniques in the original books laid out in a logical progression. Can you explain the progression. Do the five books Carl L. transcribed follow the same progression?
What are KFSS's weaknesses? (Note - this question is addressed to Jack) How would you change/adapt training to address them?
Would you enjoy sleeping with young Columbian prostitutes if you had daughters instead of sons? Just checking.
Thanks.
All you guys are a bunch of numbskulls, I could batter you faggots for breafast, never in all my travels have I seen such a pathetic bunch of excuses for trained martial artists, you think your childish petty rants make you "the man", you think you petty MA video demos (always on some one smaller than you, with you always beatin the small guy in your demos, never demo on the big guy do you!) make you the man, none of you loosers will ever by the man!
Wow, i think this post has past the 500 mark.
clearly the best topic ever.
Anyone else here think Jack's a lesbian?
no, lesbians like women.
Leader of the cult,
We may not be the man, but we know how to spell "losers."
I bet you hear that word often, you should know how to spell it.
Well F & Q's
Couldn't resist checking up after the last revelation.
Oleg, Spiritual Jack has a couple for you.
"Sin will never be my master, I do not live under law, but under grace."
The highly skilled use all that exist as tools to forward their desires.
God's grace allows one committed to Him to be used as a tool of His work on earth. Jesus walked with the sinners, whores and tax collectors. Taoist masters retreated to mountaintops to gain self-development and then returned to the streets to receive food and supplies for teaching their enlightenments.
Gods grace (grace being: undeserved favor) enables large to be weak and the small to be big. The evil to do righteous deeds and the righteous to be forgiven for their evil doings.
Instant restorations, joining with the spirit. It’s a beautiful thing.
The laws of man have Perverted many to belive that if they follow the rules of man then they are good in the eyes of God. Nothing could be farther from the truth. All must scrutinize the rules of man to see if they are righteous under the laws of God.
That takes leadership. Leading your "self" to what is right. Most are too lazy and only want to chuck a 10 spot in the basket and be good for the week. I call that churchianity.
The brotherhood of Christ is built on personalization of the word. What is the word. Forgivness of those who are well intended, of pure intention, regardless of the transgression.
When one relinquishes himself to the trilogy of the Father, Son and Holly Spirit, to be an instrument of service, who is to judge (Judge others as you wish to be judged by God) the mysterious ways in which one is called to service.
In a San Soo vibe, the art was rumored to come from the Kwan Yin Monastery (Immortal of Grace – not mercy). However, there is a Kwan Yin Monastery in every city in China. Fitting - pure Chinese - always mysterious - like your paternal Uncie here.
So where does the Art come from. Spirit. Now wait a second before you jump to conclusion - you do not know where I am going here. So you of short attention span (Shane?) read on, slap yourself for sleeping and then after understanding this, slap yourself to sleep. And then wake up and write a Thank you letter, which begins: “Dear Jack, You da man…. etc
Spirit is action. In the KF San Soo (JHW style) culture, it is relentless, effective and efficient action. However this action, the same physical action that is applied to the protection techniques which are a part of KFSS, is also applied emotionally or actively inside (internal action in support of external action and visa versa), is also the spirit of the soul, or feeling, of the practitioner (hang on here thine Quirelitos).
Thus, one who uses his physical actions (technique) tempers them with his emotional/intellectual or internal action.
(which make up feelings in the most organic sense of the word, once the learning apparatus of the mind has processed them into spinal consciousness or “knowing” beyond thought and/or acting without thought –Wu Wei).
(Could we be moving into deliberate feeling and how it is used on the mat? Quirelets would love to corrupt that knowledge by using it in competitive dealings – Ha!)
This enable those who have a complete education in kung fu to give "undeserved favor" or "grace" through Tzu jan (spontaneity).
To sum it all up to those who would like too use their martial arts for more than vanity: it enables you to apply your technique judiciously in the moment without consciously having to think about, “How bad am I jackin this guy up.”
Or “grace,” undeserved favor, motivates you to defeat him before the fight has begun (“accomplish the big while it is still small” – More of that worthless Chinese philo crap – heathen quirelets need not pay attention - don’t ya just adore me?
Grace, and it many manifestation such as gracefulness and graciousness (those characteristic the Jackster frequently exhibits) are the internal and external cornerstone that a kung fu education is built upon (notice I did not say Martial Arts)
Cheers, here is to Uncie J’s grace - looking after the flock of Quirelets frocking and romping on the mat (you knew that was coming).
Actually let’s praise the Father speaking through me as the real Uncie J would neither have the patients nor donate his time to such an unappreciative and uncouth bunch of mat dwellers.
He’d just as soon Jack ya. Firmly lodge the pointed end of his Tony Lama boots about 8 inches into your anal cavity and when the shock of the nervaineous network that canvases your back causes you to arch he’d just wrap his arm around your neck and snap your head off. Properly Quire Jacked style. Praise the Lord.
My God, who is this masked man? Why he’s the Lone Jackster. Hi Ho Quirelets and awaaaay!!! Toodles Kimosave. And adifuckinos to the rest of you Tonto’s (HCP did you get that one, we will keep it between you and me)
Jason,
I agree. Why don’t you join the fracas.
I will be expecting my residual check from cheapskate Tim.
Ah, I’ll just comp him, as you followers probably don’t pay him what he worth. If you are paying anything less than $250 a month to be taught by a 1st U.S. generation San Soo guy you are ripping him off.
He probally enjoys abusing your asses anyway so I guess it all works out in Your End. Just like them Tony Lamas.
Well then, I’ll call you Noris. When I used to bike, quite often in the SG valley I had nicknames for almost all my compadres. There was Lurch, Old Man, Pube (because of the thick beard), The Vulture, Penis Doug, Pig Pen, Leaper, etc. Also one named Tex. Devils Deciple for a while and then became the leader of the Vagabonds. Did a lot of drugs.
Forget Norris, I call you Texas Ranger or TR, maybe even Tex. He’d blackin your frickin eye just for looking at you wrong. Unless you turn out to be a pukee, then it will be forever Norris.
I got the surprise thing – good one!
CL didn’t translate anything. First books were basically Ju jitsu (combat style not ground style as reinvented by the philosopher Hielo) and then moving into more sophisticated hand to hand. He did a shitty job to. That cop never liked Jimmy. I heard him talk jack about Jimmy’s ex-criminal ways. Whatever (Judas). They are a mess. There is no logical progression.
Tim, what do you think? You probally got a set.
Oh yeah Tim, are you the eye?
Or is the eye really the guy who is known as the brown eye with a matching nose?
Is it one of them soft and warm noses that gives you the feeling of security or is it one of those cold nose that makes you want to clinch your butt cheeks around it?
The weakness in KFSS are in the person who learns and more importantly applies it.
I got daughters and sons. !0 kids I think, at least last time I counted. Maybe eleven by now.
Lets get this straight Tex - Never met a slut I didn’t like.
Now your turn. What do you do and who are you. Did you know Big John from Pete’s studio. I took that 280 lb’s of white trash under my wing and he went and entered a Gracie frickin challenge. No wonder I don’t teach white folk no more.
Any of you F & Q's wanna buy my books?
anyone else find some sort of association between Guan Yin and Jack's San Soo humorous?
fracas.
Hey Jack,
"If you are paying anything less than $250 a month to be taught by a 1st U.S. generation San Soo guy you are ripping him off."
I like you Jack.
I'm not the Eye.
I like him too. He has figured you out just by reading.
How did Big John do in the Gracie challenge?
personally, I feel like the guy wearing a tuxedo who accidentally wandered into a nudist unicycle gathering.... and I'm wondering if someone slipped a hallucinogenic into my gator-aide.
cause this is plain weird.
Jack - Instead of Tex you could also call me Total Gym or TG. Christy Brinkley wouldn't be a good nickname. Christy, however, could call me whatever she wanted. How about Milf Man (in honor of Christy) - here to deliver your daily milk.
Don't remember big John. Worked out with someone else named John - he was big too but weighed closer to 230-240 lbs. Tony Buhr was my first teacher. Started going to Jerry's after I got my yellow or green belt. Tony stopped teaching and his brother Chris took over classes at UCSD. Jerry's studio was cool - pretty much open all day. You could come in any time and find people working out. Jerry had his Master certificate from Jimmy on the wall along with a picture of Jimmy reading the family books.
Did you ever know Dan Banker??
I work in consulting - the art of getting paid to borrow someone's watch and tell them the time.
I'm not training in any martial art right now. Currently on the DL - actually got my knee scoped today. Also studying for the CPA exam (don't want to be an accountant - just want to pass the test). I plan on training again after the CPA - just not sure with who yet. Try to stay in fighting shape by conditioning and visualization. Don't care much for San Soo forms anymore. Prefer eskrima stick/knife drills.
Do you still practice forms? One of your own forms or one from the "books"?
Which of Jimmy's students do think "got it"? If you don't want to list names - no problem.
It's hard not to like a good slut.
Spiritual Jack, yea, I got that one. Good one! You amaze me with your many facets of knowledge. Interesting how you can blend it all together and make sense, good sense. I was waiting for that "deliberate feeling" Thanks for remembering.
How did you like Aruba? I remember the white sand, the funny shaped trees, (from the wind), and the wild goats running around. Oh yea, and the HOT women. I'd like to go back again. Are you having a happy new year?
Does anyone else here think that Jack did too much Acid in the '60's.
I have met a number of old-timers like Jack over the decades that I have done martial arts: sometimes they are broken-down wannabees that never had much in the way of martial or social skills; sometimes they can talk a good line but not much else; and occasionally they are very interesting to be around (in short doses) and are also very dangerous.
Oh, and often you don't know what you have for real until you have it in front of you and light their fuses in some way ...
Still, in the end, martial skill isn't worth a pinch of ratpoop if all people can say is "what a low-life jerk, he was!" after you're gone.
I can show you foreskin breath maggots tru martial skill with a silk scarf and a rupee !!!
I aint new to this, I attack like a thief in the night, faggetty jack it just a jackin beef head tryin to lick his own ass juice, Bob 2 hanging around for sploppy seconds just like eatin porridge throwin loads of salt'n suger on for taste
I am the man, the leader of the cult fools!!!
