ShingenT, are you in the US arm force?

ShingenT was playing Airsoft in those two pictures.
Nice loadout.
This is how I look when I play Airsoft.

I'm really a nobody XD But I've had some training in Isshin, Shinto, and Jigen-Ryu styles of kenjutsu, as well as Iaido and Iaijutsu. I've also studied some Hapkido and Hwarang Do.
I want to learn Kung Fu =O I'd be happy to find instructors of any style. Unfortunately, there a bit lacking in the states, at least in my general area.

It looks quite a interesting thing to study, and it might come in handy someday! :)

Thanks GZY =)

Cool, I've never been to England before, Yang ^^ You guys look pretty high up in that tower!! I'd probably be scared to jump around at that height. XD lol

Good eye Wang!! XD The photos orginally had a natural lensflare, but it wasnt nearly as noticable XD Yes, I added an additional lens flare to the two. Other than that, they are untouched save a crop and resize =)

An aspiring director and fellow college student, Larry Rockenseuss Jr, was shooting a zombie film and recently recorded the trailer on Saturday, with which he asked me to help out, after meeting him at the recent school benefit to help bring art programs back to public schools.
He later offered to write me in the script as the other survivor, who unfortunately dies before the end of the film, but goes out in a blaze of glory.
Footage will be available after final revisions are made. =) Hopefully without my death scene, for which I'm sure my acting was terrible. XD

I posted pictures of myself in China before...I will post pictures of my wife and I over the years (these pictures span about 2001-2008).

Posted Image

This was in Januaray of 2000 on Wall Street with my (future) wife and (future) sister-in-law, who was visiting from Japan.

Posted Image

This was me in Taiwan in 2002, at Jiang Jie Shi's shrine with a former university buddy...who lived there.

This was a bad picture of us in the Bahamas in 2001.

Posted Image

This was at the Alamo in San Antonio, Texas (USA) in 2005

This was us, I think in the Bahamas in 2001.

This is when I was skinny in 2001, before I started lifting weights. I probably have about 25-30 lbs more muscle now, seriously.

This was us last year, when all my in-laws came to visit from Japan, we took them to New York City...

You and your wife make a cute couple. =)

Thanks. Taiwan was very cool, I like it better than the Mainland in a lot of ways, but I wish they would get rid of the Wade-Giles, really confusing and not at all like the real pronunciation of Mandarin. Also, I would suggest, if you go, do not go to Taiwan in July!!! LOL. We were cooking there, way way hotter than Tokyo (where I lived at the time). It's like flying from Washington D.C. to Miami. We arrived at Chiang Kai Shek Airport about 10PM and it was almost 100 F outside!!! The humidity was very thick.

What type of martial arts do you study?
