kung-fu fightin'

my friend jeremy mouthed off to me this week. my response was,"i'm going to kick you in the head." thus started this discussion:

jeremy: could you really kick me in the head?

me: maybe. i used to be able to kick pretty high. do you want me to try?

jeremy: i don't want to get kicked in the head, but i am curious to see if you could do it.

me: how about this..i'll take a couple of steps back and then kick like i would if i were to kick you in the head, but i won't actually touch you.

jeremy: you want to?

me: sure, as long as you trust me.

jeremy: go for it.


so i stepped a couple feet away leaned sideways and kicked. i didn't touch him, but i discovered that if i ever wanted to kick someone in the head...i could. good to know.

i also discovered in hindsight that these are not the things one should test during work, especially when they are standing in the hallway outside of their bosses' open door.

I didn't ask her if she had any nun chuck skills, or bowstaff skills, but after seeing such a kick, I am pretty sure the answer is yes. By the way, no office personel were harmed while conducting this experiment.
