At the time of this writing, I am so mad I don't know if I will ever don a
Hapkido dobok again. The KHF has now appointed Richard the conman
Hackworthless to be the Orlando director.

I am at a true loss of what to say, other than I will not be a part of
anything that involves that crook... and to you lurkers, make sure you tell
him what I said, and I expect to be back in Florida shortly if he wants to
discuss it.

Don't forget, we need to try and get a DD picture together again this year.
This time we need to find the Canadians. :) Jere R. Hilland

Looks like a very last minute change to their website.  It wasn't there just
hours before.  

In short, he only has control over his own dojang.  He may promote only his 
own students, and up to 3rd Dan only. 

Should be an interesting meeting between the new US Rep to the KHF and
the Ocoee, Florida (not Orlando) rep.

Warning:  This is American History.  Skip this post if the non-Korean subject
offends you.  ;-)

"Gouge and Bite, Pull Hair and Scratch: "The Social Significance of Fighting
in the Southern Backcountry

By Elliott J. Gorn

(Excerpt)
The battle began – size and power on the Kentuckian’s side, science and
craft on the Virginian’s. They exchanged cautious throws and blows, when
suddenly
the Virginian lunged at his opponent with a panther’s ferocity. The crowd
roared its approval as the fight reached its violent denouement:

The shock received by the Kentuckyan, and the want of breath, brought him
instantly to the ground. The Virginian never lost his hold; like those bats of
the South who never quit the subject on which they fasten until they taste
blood, he kept his knees in his enemy’s body; fixing his claws in his hair,
and his
thumbs on his eyes, gave them an instantaneous start from their sockets. The
sufferer roared aloud, but uttered no complaint. The citizens again shouted
with joy. Doubts were no longer entertained and bets of three to one were
offered on the Virginian.

But the fight continued. The Kentuckian grabbed his smaller opponent and held
him in a tight bear hug, forcing the Virginian to relinquish his facial grip.
Over and over the two rolled, until, getting the Virginian under him, the big
man "snapt off his nose so close to his face that no manner of projection
remained." The Virginian quickly recovered, seized the Kentuckian’s lower
lip in
his teeth, and ripped it down over his enemy’s chin. This was enough: "The
Kentuckyan at length gave out, on which the people carried off the victor, and
he
preferring a triumph to a doctor, who came to cicatrize his face, suffered
himself to be chaired round the ground as the champion of the times, and the
first rougher-and-tumbler. The poor wretch, whose eyes were started from their
spheres, and whose lip refused its office, returned to the town, to hide his
impotence, and get his countenance repaired." The citizens refreshed
themselves
with whiskey and biscuits, then resumed their races.
