| 2426 | Article | Caps 2.0 | I took Tae Kwan Do classes with my brother for about a year. In retrospect, it wasn't the best of ideas, since physical activity has never been a strong suit of mine. I quit shortly after I tried breaking a wooden board and all I did was hurt my hand. | The Karate Class Kid | Jul 29, 2015 |  |
| 2425 | Article | mickyarber | I always wa ted to take karate classes, but didnt get too. Reading this, it was fu. To live vicariously through you a little bit. Fun article. | The Karate Class Kid | Jul 29, 2015 | |
| 2424 | Article | Vaporman87 | You are not alone. I too delved into the mysterious art of Ninjit... I mean, Karate. I'm pretty certain my foray into it was even shorter than yours. I may have taken two or three classes and called it quits. It was just... so... boring. I think the clincher was that I tried very hard to perform the moves correctly, but found myself having my fist raised like, a half an inch higher by instructors. Seriously? You really think that's necessary? Will an opponent allow me make such adjustments? "Oh sorry, I punched you just a smidgen too low. Hang on and I'll give it another go." Yeah, I was done. My oldest son, on the other hand, has outlasted me by a great deal. He has progressed to his yellow belt, and is on the verge of moving up to orange. I don't think he really gets much enjoyment out of it though. I don't think it IS an enjoyable thing for youngsters. It's more of a means to feel a bit more confidence and learn some discipline. I'm considering some other alternative for him that I know he might enjoy, like Cub Scouts. I spent a few years in Cub Scouts, progressing all the way to Webelos before dropping out. I think he might (possibly) find that to be more enjoyable, but I'm not sure. | The Karate Class Kid | Jul 28, 2015 | |
| 2423 | Article | jkatz | I love the pink and glitter video boxes. It just screams 90s. | Sailor Moon Videos | Jul 25, 2015 | |
| 2422 | Article | pikachulover | @Hoju You are right. Fun Fact: The Sailor Moon ice cream bar design was recycled a few years later for the Sabrina the Teenage witch ice cream. http://henshingrid.blogspot.com/2010/02/face-ice-cream.html | Sailor Moon Videos | Jul 25, 2015 | |
| 2421 | Article | Hoju Koolander | I remeber catchin a few episodes of Sailor Moon on KCOP channel 13 before school, but besides the transformation sequences it didn't quite hook me. I do recall that my buddy had a couple of the original Japanese movies or episodes without dubbing on VHS. Those ones seemed so much more serious than the dumbed down American version. Does anybody else see the Sabrina, The Teenage Witch parallels with teenage girl dealing with her powers and a talking cat? | Sailor Moon Videos | Jul 24, 2015 | |
| 2420 | Article | Vaporman87 | LOL. Perhaps. Though I imagine it would only have served to decrease the amount of their adventures... not eliminate them altogether. | The Real Goonies | Jul 24, 2015 | |
| 2419 | Article | Hoju Koolander | "Adventures in Lady-Kissing", Vaporman? Maybe if this crew had more of those they wouldn't have felt the need to put themselves in such dangerous situations. | The Real Goonies | Jul 24, 2015 | |
| 2418 | Article | mickyarber | I really dig this story. It reminds me of the long summer days my cousin Tim and I would road all over the 43 acres I grew up on. I had almost forgotten those adventures, but so many of them came rushing back to me while reading this. I love it. | Digging for Treasure | Jul 23, 2015 | |
| 2417 | Article | Vaporman87 | Holy cow! Two "adventure" articles in one week? You can't beat that. This is a great story. It reminds me of those days when you just knew treasure was hidden somewhere around you, waiting to be found. Why it would be there, who would have put it there... didn't matter. It was there, and you were going to find it somehow. Making it even better though, is the fact that there was this relic of a by-gone era that you found. That really adds to the excitement of it. I love the reference to Homeward Bound and that you felt you needed a machete for the trip. LOL Thanks for sharing this kstrom. | Digging for Treasure | Jul 23, 2015 | |
