If a certain group of "Terrorists" are hiding in a cave, up a Mountain......(bearing in mind the CIA probably already know where they are) The CIA could swap all of our Amazon Christmas Present orders for Rocks, then re-direct them all to be piled high, shutting off the mouth of the Cave !!! Just one of my many useful ideas !!! (LOL)

Yup, much more exciting than Clay Pigeon Shooting & you've got the chance to win a prize !! (LOL)

Exactly !!! Apparently the "airspace" regulations in Australia are a little more relaxed, so you might be able to do something like this there... But if you knew the drone was carrying something decent & if you thought you could get away with it... wouldn't a non-law abiding person try to disable the drone & steal its cargo ? (Tut, tut)

"Rule Brittania, Brittania Rules the Waves".... etc., etc !!! Welcome aboard, fellow Brit. Basher

Welcome. Love your user name, excellent choice. Basher

Now That's an idea...... Taoist Jazz :D welcome to TTB's.

Make It So, number One !!

Hey, just had a thought... Making Nuclear Weapons is a really expensive business. "Hard up" Countries / Governments could perhaps save loads of money & still scare the whatzits out of their neighbours, if they just put up a Sign, saying "Here's Our Nuclear weapons stockpile".

Don't let "Cat" know, but I'm (very) slowly starting to understand / agree with her point of view. I'm going to un-ignore the handful of folks whose posts really just seem to be on here to get a reaction. Edit: To remove WWI/WWII "dig". Basher

I'm in a somewhat similar situation, but can only offer the advice I've been given by my Li Tai Chi Instructors. Above all, stay relaxed (both in mind & body). Don't worry about what anyone else is doing, or how they're progressing. everybody must learn at their own pace. Concentrate on improving what you know, trying to rush ahead too fast will probably only slow your progress. Knowing & fully understanding a martial application means that you're more likely to perform the movement / technique / or sequence, correctly. The entire Tai chi form should be seemless, a non tai chi bystander watching you, shouldn't be able to spot where one move finishes & the next move begins. There are quite a few hints & tips, but these have served me well. Basher (still learning)

Welcome to TTB's, JS. Lots of differing viewpoints, on countless different subjects here. Basher

For "discusses" read discussed .......... :D

Maybe the new Operating Procedure (for those of us that HATE, HATE, HATE posts that are "drastically" edited, after being replied to), should be for the second poster to quote the OP in it's entirity...every single time. (Brave sir Robin [then] ran away....) LOL

Welcome Revan. Basher

August Assembly, in November ? (Sorry, somebody had to) Welcome Captain. Basher

I know this is meant to be a cultivation forum, but IMHO that doesn't mean that I have to read every single word on every thread, posted by every other member (trolls or not). I have particular interests & preferences, which may (or may not) change over time. Surely I have the right to read (or ignore) whatever I want to on here. (Unless it's in a restricted area or a PM) Basher

Welcome Bob, think that you will find lots of interesting threads here.. Basher

I wanna know is yin/yan anything like Yin/Yang ?
