From my own experience of constantly proselytizing about Kendo ... it has come to my stark attention that the average Joe could care less about doing any Martial arts, and even less about Kendo.

Is that a physical activity. Oh, that's nice. Have you played Crackdown yet on the 360? I hear it's quite good...

Familiar story here too, Kenzan. I do get to see some interesting looks from people as they notice the eBogu calendar/poster I put up in my cube.

From the looks of the local karate place, which had practice in the park across from us last week. People are more interested in exciting confidence building for their kids or learning to becoming lethal killing machines

, rather than the repetitive physical abuse and self-abasement we call kendo practice. The wife said we look just as odd, but at least we don't practice in the park and actually look like we know what we're doing.
