I have loved Zorro since I was a little girl. The movie by Alain Delon in 1975 is my favorite.
Actually I am very surprised that you know a lot about giang hu. Is it come from Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon too? It was picked up from some chapters of a long book, and was made more western than ever. The interesting thing is when the movie was on I talked to people about this movie, the answers were so different. Just like the same flower in different people’s mind is quite different.
It is a nice thing to know how other people feel. Especially people with different culture and background. When you are touching the giant elephant’s ear, you want to know what is the feeling of touching its trunk.

Hello, nice pair of duo!
Yes, I am proving myself now. When we are playing fencing at home I use broom and he uses toy sword.
I wish I would have a matched schedule with my son. I have a friend whose family goes to karate club, she and her husband have to work opposite shifts for the two kids' schedule. She said she basically contacted her husband by email and notes, because they did not have time to stay together when they were awake

Oh, and we are in Florida, too (Jacksonville) and will be at the Sunshine State Games next month. Here comes the Herndon/Carter duo!

Too bad you missed it. It was a fairly successful tourney.
