Saw Get Smart and Kung Fu Panda. Both had their giggle moments and their 'COOL!" moments. Both had a rough theme of the newbie winning out over the experienced. And both had just that one too many fat jokes - after a while, it wore a bit, uh, thin.

Aikido is a great way to really drive home to me that I need to do something about the neckache I've had for years before I start doing things like somersaulting and floor falls.

Not to mention that I have a feeling I'm going to have really flexible shoulders, wrists, and ankles by the end of this. And probably be able to touch my toes ( Read more... )
