James Black replied to Johnny's discussion most people dont know how to property use a knife"Well you don't run with the girls I do Shane!"
James Black replied to Julian Ross's discussion Women in Combat?"How do you feel about it? I don't think anyone is going to say women won't see combat action in these or future wars. As long as we allow women into the Armed Forces, there will be women seeing combat. Women are already fighting in the…"
James Black posted a discussionGO VOTE!
As dad once said "Get off your ass and register to vote!" To be fair, it was 8 AM on a Sunday... So I really couldn't go down to the post office and pick up my forms, but I sure was standing in line the next day. (Perfectly reasonable reason to skip first, and maybe second period High School Seniors!)Anyone else get silly, but grand advice from father? See More
James Black replied to Brett McKay's discussion How Do You Want to Go Out?" I have decided I want to be cremated, and my ashes thrown in the faces of the people I hate the most. (you know the types... people who just run their gib, drive with their blinkers on, always have some smart assed thing to save that…"
James Black replied to Rick Fini's discussion Am I a loser?"Moving in with your parents due to scholastic financial hardship is more then acceptable. As long as you get into med school~
And keep working out, it is important for doctors to stay in decent shape to help combat childhood obesity~"
James Black replied to Derek's discussion Fighting tips?"Well let us look at the situation this young man will find himself in where he needs to know how to fight.
Young Derek here is finding himself at a bar with some drunken frat boy who is probably worried about his image. Regardless of…"
James Black replied to Derek's discussion Fighting tips?"Ok, your age isn't a suprise. I am no guru on all things fight by any means, but I have held my own in a few.
Second, I ask if all the guys around you are in MMA because that is/was the trend a few years ago, and in certain circles…"
James Black replied to Derek's discussion Fighting tips?"I am going to go out on a limb and ask you two things. First, how old are you. Second, are all the guys around you wearing some form of MMA attire? "
James Black replied to Derek's discussion Fighting tips?"Look, fighting isn't something you can learn to do from a blog. If you are worried or interested pick a martial art form, join the military (the marines pride themselves on that kinda gig), and learn with your fisty-cuffs.
What you…"

30 Days to a better man 2012
This is not an attempt to steal Brett McKay's thunder, I just happened to be a latecomer to this website. The enormous success of this group in 2009 led me to feel that we should do it every year. This will be for the rest of 2011, as well as the duration of 2012.
James Black replied to Cullen S.'s discussion Does anyone have experience with home brewing?"Well I am not going to blow smoke up your skirt. Expect your first few brews to not make your expectations. But the key is patience.
I make an oktoberfest from a brewer's best box, and waited the recommended time and it…"
James Black replied to Joseph Casson's discussion Can someone be manly and camp at the same time?"Could you be more specific?"
James Black replied to Joseph Casson's discussion Can someone be manly and camp at the same time?"What "Camping" are you referring to?"
James Black posted a discussionCreativity
Now I have been told that the color of the sky in my world is a different shade then most. But I came across a great video on youtube by John Cleese about creativity. I have to say that growing up in western Oklahoma I was raised to believe men acted like John Wayne. And seeing as how my arms are never going to be strong enough to zip bullets at bad guys without pulling the trigger on my Colt 45 Peacemaker, maybe I needed to re-evaluate my role models. Anyhow, let's hear what the community…See More

Tyler M. replied to Max B's discussion losing my Dad"We're coming up to the two year anniversary of when I lost my Dad to small cell lung cancer. He died a pretty slow, horrible death over the course of a couple years, and I understand how hard it is seeing it happen. If you're a Christian,…"
Liam replied to Liam's discussion Moving towards my first muscle up"Thanks, they have gone onto my "to buy" list. I can see they are pretty versatile! I have been able to control the transition on negatives to a certain extent but have been struggling. I like the idea of the elastics to help build up the…"
Liam replied to Liam's discussion Moving towards my first muscle up"I am trying to build up and maintain some level of endurance. Nothing fancy, I think sets of 12 - 15 pull ups is a good middle ground. I'm not looking to go higher than that.
In my observation a mixture of low rep, high level (like a…"
"Would people buy books where I talk about my own existance?"
JonEdanger replied to Herb Munson's discussion The Primacy and Existence of God in the group The Great Debate"The latter is a great example of the former."
Samuel replied to Liam's discussion Moving towards my first muscle up"I can ask why you want to be able to do high reps of pull-ups? If your trying to build strength you might be better to try doing "L-sit" pull ups where you hold your legs horizontal and do pull ups that way. It makes them much harder!
(Of…"
Samuel replied to Liam's discussion Moving towards my first muscle up"I have a set of bodylastics (http://www.bodylastics.com/) I use at home which are excellent, but when I was at the gym I just used whatever ones they had lying around.
I just found that with the negative I wasn't actually working the transition…"
