and counting.
I'm finding it somewhat amusing, watching the reactions I get from people when I tell them some of what's involved in this upcoming rank test for me.
Most of them can at least wrap their minds around the concept of me knocking someone out using only light touches. I actually had one person tonight ask me if I was going to do the Vulcan Neck Pinch on someone, and I wish I had a picture of the look in his eyes when I basically told him, "Been there, done that..."
The part that obviously caused him to go into total cranial shutdown was the concept of knocking someone out without physical contact... and yes, it is not only possible, but it is something that both of us who will be testing will be required to demonstrate.
What I get a chuckle out of are the folks who go all "fluffy-bunny" as soon as you start talking about some of the more esoteric aspects of chi/energy manipulation. I may be a lot of things, but "fluffy-bunny" definitely is *not* on that list! LOL
Oh, well... off to meditate a bit, then get some sleep.

Even if you can't *explain* it, any help in even *vaguely* understanding it would be appreciated.
