Mushtaq uploaded a small clip of Me & Mariah sparring...This was after our initial clash that I described in my previous post. Mariah has on Sneakers and white trim on her helmet, I have no shoes or mid arm protection and all black armor. The clock is running time DOWN, meaning time is running backwards, so you have to consider that when looking for frames: From :47 to :45 is an attack I met with a upwards thrust. You can hear Steve say "Watch the stabs" and I answer "Sorry". From :38 to :36 you can see one of those "Death From Above" shots I described.

Notice how close I'm refereeing.
I've got a kid fighting an adult, neither familiar with the other's style, both used to different sets of rules.
And at least one of them bloodthirsty ;-)
Todd mentioned I should ask you about the Sera you learned in Bandung. But after watching you barely holding your own with a girl younger than the T-shirt I'm wearing, I dunno, Kid.
You're brave to have posted this. I was getting my ass handed to me by a slip of of a thing like that, I'd bury the vid under a big rock so nobody would ever find it ...

Oh, har-de-har-har, aren't we all just frickin' HILARIOUS. Steve (Perry) You should write comedy, it would sel better than lasers and sex. Y'know, it's not like I was trying to mop the floor with her...
...Wait a minute, What about my Sera? This isn't about to turn into another "legitamacy" issue is it?
Hmm. "Legitimate" and "Bobbe" in the same sentence? Wouldn't that be an oxymoron?
I *am* passing funny, and have, from time to time, written comedy. Ask Todd and Tiel about "The Humber Horror," a tale of the Real, Real Old Ones ...
Even done a bit of stand-up from time to time ...
Not my fault that the slip-of-a was cleaning your clock. What kinda silat guy fools around with sticks, anyhow? Sera and sticks?
Oh, wait. You *were* one of Victor's students. No wonder. It's Serak and sticks.
Never mind ...

You're *passing* SOMETHING, no argument there. For some reason T & T won't send me copies of your older stuff. Probably don't want to give me more ammo.
Sera doesn't have sticks. But since Kali does, and I AM a Kalista as well...
Yeah, yeah, she got a shot or two in. This group is gonna have Mariah putting me into a year-long coma before the story gets old.
Let's reword that last bit, calling me a "Student" of Victor is synonymous with calling me...A really bad name. Let's just say I TRAINED with Vic, and for a substantially SHORT time at that. In fact, of all my Silat teachers, he's the one I spent the least amount of time with. Dammit Perry, now you have me actually admitting that I was with him at one time!!!
I'll be happy to email you a copy of the Humber story. Unless, of course, your lips will get too tired reading it. I don't want to add to your woes.
Coma? She did that, huh? Not surprising. Little old ladies, teenaged girls, crippled old men, all of them dine on fricasseed Bobbe ...
Bobbe,
Round 'em up. They can't see past my looks and age. They'll never see it coming! You can officiate.
I love it when people say I can't. Because then, almost gauranteed, I WILL.
Mariah
