:eek:
yeah, but now it’s kinda like everyone here seen you do it.

Were you trying to throw someone and you threw yourself, or were you practicing ALONE and managed to throw yourself?
Did you get my email a week or two ago?

I missed part 1
Give yerself a break, neptune. You meant to do that, you were just practicing breakfalls is all. Really. Honest. It was on purpose.
STOP LAUGHING AT ME!
on topic -
I think I’ve told this story before, but it bears repeating. I hopped the wrong bus one time, and instead of going to my apartment, this express bus didn’t stop until it reached the transfer center on the north side of town. Being late afternoon on a Saturday, it was going to be a while til the bus to take me back home arrived, and the parking lot was practically empty.
Okay, perfectly good time to practice forms, right? I thought so.
So, I started running through my taiji short form. Some people start looking at me, no problem, let 'em look. One guy comes over and starts trying to follow along. No problem, maybe Shifu can get a new student out of this. I finish my first rep, we talk about taiji for a minute, I give him the school’s name and address, his bus arrives so he leaves. I go back to doing my form solo. People continue to watch; as I said, no big deal. A cop comes over and tells me to stop. “Why?” I ask. Never mind why, just stop. “Am I doing anything illegal?” No, but stop anyway. I stopped this short of telling him to arrest me and file charges or stick his fascist bull up his ass, but instead I said “Sorry I bothered you.” He said I wasn’t bothering him, but stop it.
Is it any wonder I don’t love all cops? Whatta cornhole.

In case you missed it, the stupid thing I did in that story was to catch the express bus instead of the one that goes to my building. The cop was stupid enough for both of us, though.

maybe he just didn’t want to see you get beat up.

Mabe your form was just so good he was jealous, or mabe it was so crap he didnt want you to embarass yourself
