This topic is going to be all about Maynard's various bands, such as Tool, A Perfect Circle, Puscifer, Green Jelly, Zaum, and Peach. Which one inspires you the most?
Has anybody also seen the the movie documentary, Blood into Wine? |

| When I'm feeling down, I listen to Hurt by Nine inch Nails. And Johnny Cash's version of the song. |

| Martial arts are practical... in most cases. Sport martial arts aren't, really. In Judo, for example, a lot of the techniques wouldn't work against anyone who's trained in a practical martial art.

| Watching the trends though its been interesting to see how things fluctuate. What I also like about Krav Maga that I never learned in other fighting systems is attacking and defending simultaneously. Like the 360 degree block for example(the block that defends all outside attacks), along with a pun... |

| I train in Krav Maga, an Israeli hand-to-hand combat system. It's not a traditional system, unlike Kung Fu, traditional Karate, aikido, etc. It has no Katas, no philosophical rituals, and technically, it's not a "martial art."

| My stepson, who has aspergers like me, has the tendency to stick his hands down his pants as an autistic-like stem. He is 7 years old now and despite being reminded how disgusting it is, he keeps on doing it. The big problem with this is that he does this even in public!(thankfully, I have hand sani... |

| Oblivion is one the best games ever. Guess what? I know two secret methods on how to duplicate items. One of those methods won't work if you have the "Game of the year" edition. If you know already, PM me and I'll explain. |
