However, if you train with other people around, you may risk getting them ill too, and that is usually not a good thing. I only did this while getting ready for nationals 2 years ago, and did my best to stay away from the others (except when sparring). I have been sick so little since starting TKD that this issue luckily has not happened very much. I think working out 4-6 times a week, and keeping a good diet goes a long way to keeping you healthy. Hope you're feeling better, Jack.

If some one with more knowledge on Korean language and Soo Bahk Do History would like to look at the form an offer any comment. This document is in Excel format and uses a macro to ask the questions at random. The document is located at the following web site. http://members.tripod.com/sbdpages/index.html then go to the link "Soo Bahk Do Terminology and History Questions" I would like to hear any suggestions. Thanks James Willers ------------------------------ From: ABurrese@aol.com Date: Thu, 30 Sep 1999 11:55:47 EDT Subject: the_dojang: Trip to Seoul Ray, I would second the suggestion that you take the tour up to the DMZ if you have not done so yet. Even though we had been stationed there in the 80s, Frank and I enjoyed the tour to the DMZ that we went on in Dec. 96. The Korean Folk Village is not far from Seoul, and you can spend an enjoyable day there if you are interested in the culture and things of the past. I've been there a couple times and found it interesting. Kwonju down south is very interesting, but by bus it is quite a long trip from Seoul, as are many things. As you know, travel by bus can be long. It used to take 4 hours from Kangnung to Seoul with good traffic, and during a holiday or busy day the trip could take ten or more hours. (we wouuld drive it in two or so here in Montana) I'm sure you have probably been the the War Museum in Seoul that is right near Youngsan. If you haven't, GO! It is a great museum, especially for anyone interested in martial arts, war, etc. Of course the time of year you go makes a difference. It's starting to get cold out, so that can influence what you may want to do. Off the top of my head, those are a few suggestions that are close to Seoul. Yours in Training, Alain Burrese ------------------------------ From: Ray Terry Date: Thu, 30 Sep 1999 09:14:40 -0700 (PDT) Subject: Re: the_dojang: Trip to Seoul > I would second the suggestion that you take the tour up to the DMZ if you > have not done so yet.

I'm not sure and am too lazy at this point in time to go check (even though the book is in my room). :) The book illustrates examples of writing HTML 4.0 code on both Mac and PC systems, so it should work for both. I'd check the book, but like I said earlier, I'm feeling too lazy... besides, this AP Calculus looks mighty tempting, as does my boricha... *sips thermonuclear boricha* As far as training when sick, if I can't move and am throwing up just about every major organ, THAT'S when I draw the line... almost same thing with injuries... if it hurts too much to walk as is, how can I hold a proper stance without falling over and hurting myself and others? (that's probably the piont at which I force my mother to load me in the ja-dong-ja and go to the hospital...) And I have found out, as others have mentioned, that "stomaching" the little pains is much better than going home to co-miserate with the TV. Small headaches that I would try to get rid of with 3 Tylenol or stomachaches that I'd just lie down for and whine about normally rid themselves as I lose myself in the routine. As far as my respiratory fo-pahs, hehehehehe... no running nose to catch, easier breathing... "I like." (MTV Asia motto) But my nose starts running once I cool down and find myself in the tub soaking... at which point I must find the box of Kleenex that's slowly disappearing... and I don't have much of a cough to worry about... :) You've heard it once and again: No pain, no gain. Addendum: Too much pain, no net gain. ===== Kim Jones (ladytimberland@yahoo.com) Webpage - http://members.tripod.com/NekoChan00/ AOL IM - OmegaKage IcQ - 46316779 __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
