Gold Nuggets in the Logs

Post by johno »

Two nights ago I got in my Wayback Machine and traveled in the Training Logs to the year 2006. I read some of _____________'s logs, then Fat Cat's logs...back when he was a Blue Belt. His logs follow his journey to Black Belt.

If you follow grappling, this is gold. Fat Cat was disciplined with his log, and wrote some great descriptions of his struggles & development as a martial artist. I owe that man a beer.

I did some research for the ill fated Green Ghost book going through ancient Dragondoor forum posts. Some of the best inquiry was done by another jarhead.. the infamous, the Venerable BogatirX

It was a good answer.

Let's do this again in a few months.

Hence, my journey to the Nuggets. Not boring at all.
