lao tzu drinkin' moonshine...my grandpa used to run...


today in martial arts class...we worked on drunken style...or drunken monk style...where the fighter stumbles around...off-balance and out of control...but the hard part is really pushing yourself to the limits of your balance while being completely in control...a real paradox...but i can definitely see where imbibing in some alcohol prior to fighting in this drunken style could be advantageous...it's almost as if you have to get in that drunken state of mind...to really let go and inhabit the body part of the body/mind... later we actually incorporated it into our sparring...and then to two on one...where you are gained up on by two attackers...i was kickin' ass...must be all that whiskey drinkin' in my youth... drunken master would be the way to go...that's what i should really focus on...and eventually teach when i return to kentucky... i really want to set up my own school...teaching martial arts and meditation...as well has other things like visual or performance art
