    Hi everybody

    Hi guys. My name is Isaac, but you can call me [superhero pose]TangMan![/superhero pose] I recently began fencing with my college club... I've never done it before but I'm really enjoying myself so far. I figured it was time to join this little party ya'll have here so maybe I can get some pointers and such. Lookin' forward to it!

    If you're in full superhero pose, should you really be giving away your secret identity? Good luck with the college fencing.

    Besides, as a foilist you can really only aspire to superhero sidekick status at most. You'll have to switch to sabre if you want to advance past that.

    Epeeists, of course, can only be villains.

    Welcome a-board.

    Inquartata can never be anything more than the Dr.Blight of the Captain Planet World.

    Foilist are the Captain planets while epees are the planeteers.

    No Sabres are the constantly.. 'foiled' villians. Duke Nukem, Lootin lunder, etc.

    Foils are 'By your powers combined i am.. CAPTAIN PLANET!' GO PLANET!

    and Epees are 'the weaklings that have to summon foilists to fight the villians

    Nice to meet you Isaac...I mean Tangman. "Tang, it's a kick in the glass, and now in a pouch!" Wow, that sounded wrong. What weapon? And which coach do you fence with?

    Good evening all

    I have not fenced since 1994!! Is that not SAAAAAAADDDD! In 1992 I took Bronze in foil at the Junior Olympics and in '93 another bronze in eppee at the state games. I whent to Nationals but was inches away from another Bronze. Right after that my fencing career came to a SCREECHING halt. I could no longer make it to practice and ran off to the Marine Corps. They told me that there was a fencing team and that I could join it and try out for the Olympic team. HAHAHA!!!! That is the only time my recruiter lied to me. Oh well....

    I sure miss competing tho'.
