Each time I look at her pictures I have the same thoughts - she looks deceitfully delicate, but she is a deadly trap :wink:

Thank you turbo. She knows about my PF friends here. It was just yesterday on the phone that she brought up remembering seeing the photo of your log house with snow to the roof's eves. You can count on her having your back.
Thank you. I will pay for her transportation, lodging and legal funds (if needed). We need more brave politicians and activists that are willing to buck their political parties and ideological compatriots.

We can't always count on the activists to express a well-reasoned explanation why we need to be sensitive to the stuff in the major media. We need to be able to accept that there there may be decent reasonable defensible counter-offer.

A message to PF.

My daughter said:
Thank you all for the kind words and respect. I don't know any of you, only what my dad tells me, and vice versa. Still, what I have taken is that PF is almost like a family, similar to my ITF Taekwon-do family, which is great. I appreciate you all being there for my dad. Maybe one day soon I will be a member on here myself. :) Thanks again and Taekwon.

I thought I'd revive this thread to report that my daughter will be going to this tournament. Wow, what a lucky girl. She'll be competing with the USA team and individually.

She's back with medals.

Third in sparring. She said 1st and 2nd winners definitely deserved it.



Second in patterns.



Second in team power breaking. She went to the hospital to x-ray her ankle. Not broken. :)

Thank you turbo. She is going to open a dojang in Denver in the near future. She already has enough clients for a kids class and has found a facility that she will be renting.
