lol. Im never one to quit easy and im a stubborn blank as many of you may have guessed. I would suggest that those who do not know much about other arts to stop making comments on ninjukai taijitsu. Im sure if I could endure half an hour of horse stance torture i could endure 6 months of being whacked on the head. I have made up my mind to try kendo but there are no guarantees that i would prefer it over iaido or something similar around these parts. maybe even aikido would be a suitable option for training. I know that kendo has a low success rate for students, but im sure thats mainly because the people who join are looking to become quick samurai with awesome sword skills and dont appreciate hard work of being beaten over the head with a shinai lol. How about this though; if I join a dojo i will i will post something in the lounge after the beginners course. If i am still there i wil post something again to let you know. If not I will do the same and you guys can place as many bets as you like. Unfortunately pgsmith, masahiro, and paikea you may end up paying out for more than you bargained. And what do i get? considering i dont drink beer is out of the question and cheap :-P. I think the knowledge of succeeding despite all of your bets would be enough.

Thankyou for your sentiments newbie :-D. I appreciate them when all i get is flames.
