it was really a blast communicating with you recently. I truly do enjoy reading your various forums. Your journalistic skills & abilities are well implimentated within the field of martial arts. Continue to write & to inspire others; and also continue to be a strong force within the arena of FMA...Thanx for connecting with me & reaching out. If in any way I can be of service to you, please do not hesitate to call upon me. Lastly! I'm sure that our paths will meet at the crossroads of FMA... "Maybe sooner than we think".
P.S. Please let me know how I am to properly address you 'title' wise.
Until that glorious day comes!

Not that much, I only get to play at Central Park when my friends from Manhattan are available and they're always traveling around. I usually train at the parks in Jamaica Queens. Its nearer where I stay at present. Looking forward to meet you, let me know when you're in the city.
