Yes, You might may.. But where did the alcohol come into the picture??

Having just read about "power on a 2" which was very useful info to me I see where alcohol doesn't come into the picture.
Looks like you can blow up an egg in a wine glass and not break the glass...and having fun with the 2" no worries!

I have been a martial artist all my life. My original sciences were Japanese. BuShiDo (the way of the warrior) is a japanese militaristic concept to which I adhere to.
Japans greatest swordsman, Miyamoto Musashi, who developed a method of using both the long and short swords at the same time, and author of the Go Rin No Sho, or book of five rings, was once asked what the essence of BuShiDo was. Instantly he answered, the way of the warrior is resolute acceptance of death. To realize that you may be injured or killed in battle, but not to have that knowledge stop you from acting. This is BuShiDo.
This has saved my behind many many times. I will take water from no man, and have read from the good book to many of those who have tried to force their will upon me. I am BuShiDo.

Did a fair bit of Wing Chun when I was in my teens, was okay at it. These days I just rely on my size, hairiness, and deep voice to scare the buggers off. Must be working, haven't been hassled for any reason in many years. Though I am also wise enough now to stay away from dark alleys, which probably helps.
Be safe.
Be discreet.
And have fun.

Mine came from a 1965 prostreet chevelle that I built in my shop to drive on the street and have fun with. The first time I went to the track I ran it in a modified street class and ran 9.96 at 157mph, the track owner met me at the trailer and told me to load up that pro65 and not come back untill I installed rollbars and had it certified, which I never did because it was just a street toy.

This name has been my AIM name since long ago as I can remember (middle school or high school) and it has just stuck/I have never changed it.

It is my name on about every other forum I am on as well (mainly automotive/diesel forums). Used it some in online gaming as well.
dunno what to put here, on all the other forums im on there is a description of my truck here. heh

The true measure of a man is not how much money he has or how many toys he has. It's how many people show up at his funeral to celebrate his life.
