  1. I'm with you on that. I tell you in advance that I am an old hippy, too, so I am chiming into a convo I might not be appreciated for. I have worked out with poetry, blogging (google me), songwriting, novel writing, studied Shorin Ryu, re-invented myself with WuShu variations, watched college lectures in a dozen subjects, read philosophy, practiced with bokuto, katana, and jian (and piano and guitar, pen and Mark One Eyeball), all through my adulthood, just to keep my edge; I don't consider myself capable of fighting experts or educating professionally. I know about the difference between dojo fights and street fights, and I have won fights in some cases simply by being the more willing to mix it up. I am all about cross training between body, mind, and soul. My specific interest is not about competing for females (or shemales, if that's your deal) by physical perfection . . . or about scaring pure posers away from my harem . . . it's about being a well rounded man. I want to be able to understand what learned folks are talking about, I want to be able to audit and discuss great lessons in philosophy, art, and fighting technique. AND I want to help struggling folks with everyday difficulties-hold doors, offer to carry packages . . . all that boy scout stuff . . . because it's the Right Thing to Do. Rock's a great guy and all, but he's specialized too well and is leaving behind that well rounded paradigm in favor of more physical appeal. If asked by him for advice (don't laugh: rich guys seek philosophical advice from poor men all the time-that's what trainers are: philosophers; whether they like it or not), I would suggest that he has peaked; all that remains if he goes on is an enlarged heart and organ failure. He won't make himself younger or prettier. Believe me, I've tried. Great listening to you talk, Joe.
