I am usually not a fan of big events like olympia, soccer wm/em and stuff like that and so, usually I do not look at such events on television. But last night, i just switched around the channels, i get to a TV station where the closing ceremonies was broadcasted live, right at the time to see the drummer with the "short arms" (do not know the English term). I was totally impressed, because i did never see something like that before - even could not imagine. And his joy on playing with the band as a "fifth member" has put a bright smile on my face. Often i can not really explain, what i do feel on playing the drums. It is something like being one with the whole universe and having the whole universe inside me - at the same time. But what does it meant to be for this guy? Must be a feel that never could reached by "long arm" persons. _________________ Useful Software for Puppy!

Next they will be dancing with no legs . . . . . . wait a minute . . . this guy, David Toole, was at the opening ceremony. His dance was for me the most incredible piece in the show . . . http://youtu.be/mLe9ZSwU4aQ Puppy Linux Small in size, Big in Heart _________________ Puppy WIKI |

Apart from martial arts (the original reason for sport training) I am not much interested in sports. For some reason the British became totally obsessed with paralympic athletes. Something has changed. It is almost like knowing that any difficulty or impairment is no reason to give up . . . Many years ago I developed a style of fighting done from a full lotus (cross legged). I thought of it as a totally passive system . . . now I am not so sure . . . _________________ Puppy WIKI |
