Hello Everyone,

Just wanted to introduce myself and give a little background. My name is Aaron, and I have been viewing this message board for a few years now, (on and off). I started reading Masaaki Hatsumi's and Stephen K. Hayes' books back when I was about 10 years old. I would check them out from my local library. Back then I was into making my own shuriken and throwing them into all sorts of things, stick fighting with my brothers, you know the usual 10 year old stuff.

I just recently finished 4 years in the Marine Corps. 2 of which I was with 8th & I in Washington DC, and the other 2 were with 1/5 at Pendleton in CA. While I was in DC I was able to train in a couple classes with one of Phil Legare's students.

I work as a Surveillance Specialist for an Investigation Firm, and I am also the Rural Surveillance Instructor. I finally started getting back into training and am currently a student of Ron Blackwood of The Ohoko Dojo in Orange. He is a 13th Dan, and a very cool guy. I am just now getting the basics of this art (Bujinkan Taijustu) and am trying to learn all I can in between training at the Dojo. I go about 3-4 times a week. I've been reading a lot of books about Hatsumi and his views on the art, and a little bit of history. I love the life style, the mind set, and the rich history and tradition that this art holds, and I am trying to immerse myself into it. Anyways, that's me, I like sex, (just saw "BORAT" last night lol awesome movie) and I look forward to speaking with you all.
