Last night at Kung Fu class I was promoted to Jade belt. Jade is the final of the ‘beginner belts.’ Upon completion of this, I will be an intermediate kung fu artist (yes!). One good thing about Jade is that it is the start of sparring. The bad thing is that the “jade” sash is less like jade and more like a flourescent green.

How am I suppose to be stealthy when I have a flourescent green beacon shining out from my waist??

Last night we were all doing quad stretches where you bend your knee up and hold your ankle behind your back, so from the front, it looks like you only have one leg.

Someone commented on how we all look like pirates. Which brought on the joke:

What do pirates like most about Kung Fu?
The like to Sparrrrrrrr
