The kids' coach says they need to build up physical capacity to support the fencing, not the other way. But they find the fencing far more fun and interesting that foooootwooooork or anything that builds stamina.

Boy can't fence anyhow, got his cast off and has no muscle tone in his hand or arm. Banned by the docs from karate and especially football for months.

[Lady Quindecim]

Glad to hear the cast is off. (cast off... hahaha... get it? Ok, that was bad.) Sorry 'bouth the sporting restrictions. :/
But hey, build the muscle back up and fencing should be good, right?

[Empty Wallet]

Some sort of sport would be good for him. He loves the karate as an individual pursuit, and football as the team. Not really so good at fencing, perhaps when he is older he will come to that properly.

Are you going on spring break?

[Lady Quindecim]

SB is done and past. Kinda sill tor "spring" break to be so early (when we are still up to our arm pits in snow) but it is a good time for a break nonetheless, generally speaking.

[Empty Wallet]

Certainly no snow here, so we could have spring break.

I have to go and do something restful.

Have fnet fun.

Glad you are not hurting as much, but I beg to differ on the taste of blood. If it tastes bad, maybe cut back (or omit all together) red meat. There are other foods that will make it taste ... less good. But some good Alaska salmon does wonders. But I digress.

Morning f.net

It didn't taste bad. It tasted like blood.

It's just that once you've had that taste in your mouth a while, it gets bad.

One of the more disturbing things I've read on fnet!

Do you have black pudding (boudin noir en francais) in the US? I can't remember seeing it.

[JackOfHearts]

Worse. We have mole.

Some parts of my heritage, I'd rather not know about.

[Got_Fenced_In]

I'm sorry. I had a distrubing night last night!

And I'm not sure. We might, but I don't know if what I'm thinking of is actually what you mean.

We have it for breakfast- fried or grilled. Or for a main course- nearly all countries in Europe have their own version. It's actually quite delicious, despite basically being congealed blood (i.e. a scab!).

I'm sure you will find in the States, should you wish...

[JackOfHearts]

Looks like Chorizo.

[pigeonmeister]

Very different flavour and texture- chorizo is pork meat, fat, paprika, garlic, and few other things. Black pudding has no meat- only blood, fat, and something to bind (bread, oats or someother cerial).

The idea of that made me sick

[Timo]

I'm with music.

How do I go about writing a tasteful, humorous short film about Hitler?

[Musicfencer]

With lots of humor. CoTimo- Im sorry I haven't responded in forever; I haven't been on a real computer in forever with time to just write. I prob will tomorrow!

[Timo]

Well, MeMusic, when you do get the time (hopefully tomorrow) you should just write and write everything you can possibly think of.

Alright, humorous it is. The problem is I usually run into creative differences with my friends as they are still in the freshmen male mind of humor, like at the end Eva Brauns hand should come out of her grave.

[Nolano]

I sprained my ankle... No fencing for 3-4 weeks D:

[JackOfHearts]

Yikes, that's rough.

I, on the other hand, am as fit as a fiddle.

Or is it a cello.

[Got_Fenced_In]

I'm having the worst arguments with myself in my head right now...

[JackOfHearts]

Oh? Over what, exactly? O_o
