Removing material[edit]

Please do not remove content from Wikipedia; it is considered vandalism. If you want to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. RevolverOcelotX

Unlike you, I didn't remove any content from the Bruce Lee article. Please stop vandalizing the page. Thank you. RevolverOcelotX
As a side note, you have repeatedly removed content from the article. This would make you just as guilty, and in turn you would be self accusing as a vandal.ShuckyDucky 20:46, 29 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

This message is mostly for RevolverOcelotX, but I'll put it here since his warning was to you ShuckyDucky. Removing content from Wikipedia IS NOT always considered vandalism: "..any material that is challenged and has no source may be removed by any editor." The question is whether or not the content was referenced to a verifiable and reliable source. --ElectricEye (talk) 10:19, 12 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

JKD Name Paragraph[edit]

ShuckyDucky I just read your response in regads to the JKD name. You mentioned that "Your are not a student". Have you studied martial arts? What is your tie to JKD? Just trying to understand your interest. BTW: never did receive any email from you.FrankWilliams 13:25, 5 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Absolutely interested. I never received any email from you (perhaps spam filers or other such utilites) filtered it out. Thanks for the clarification. Hope to hear from you.FrankWilliams 20:42, 5 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The Do (in Jeet Kune Do)[edit]

Thanks for the response. The conversation between Lee and Inosanto is straight from Inosanto's book "Jeet Kune Do". It is also reiterated in Jerry Beasley's book "The Jeet Kune Do Experience" P. 13. Lee may have used the Japanese variant (who knows the reason) as in Japanese DO translates to "The way of" ... which comes from the Chinese Tao or Dao. I agree that it's odd that Lee (a Chinese) would use a Japanese word for his art but there are stranger things. I don't have Glover's book but I'll definitely be looking for it. You might also want to check out Bruce Lee Library. Even though I'm discourged from doing any more edits I've been trying to reference many of the past contributions, and the John Little series has much to contribute as they come from Lee himself. Take care. FrankWilliams 02:21, 27 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Bruce Lee/Thai Boxer Encounter[edit]

You Wrote:

Where did you hear/read about this event Mr. Williams?ShuckyDucky 23:10, 28 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I Wrote: It's been a long time. It was either told to me by my instructor or it's in one of my books/periodicals. When I get some time I'll see if I can find the source. Sorry about not being more definite but I do recall the source as being reliable.FrankWilliams 01:53, 26 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I Worte Again:

Finally[edit]

This quesion has been lagging at me from some time. I've finally combed through my library and found the citation for my comment. The information came from the Bruce Lee Jeet-June-Do club published magazine entitled "Bruce Lee His Privacy and Anecdotes" page 11. This was an article written by the Editors of the magazine as told to them by a Mr. Chan Ah-Kam a Chinese individual living in Thailand during the early 1970's. Apparently when Bruce Lee was filming "The Big Boss" in Thailand and still developing JKD he ran across Mr. Ah-Kam and convinced him to set up a sparring match between himself and a retired Thai-Boxing champion. Lee was still developing and refining his JKD and wanted to see how it stacked up against his system. Lee along with the rest of the world had heard of the martial arts prowess of Thai Boxers, so he wanted to see how he would fair. Apparently after 14 rounds of severe punishing blows Lee ended up victorious.

Quote From the Article: "As Bruce walked up to help him on his feet, the champion unexpectedly gave a kick. Bruce rapidly turned away. Hoever, Bruce could not entirely avoid it, the kick still hit on his waist.

From then on Bruce's waist frequently had uncomfortable feeling.

Seeing that the result was out and the chapion had flared up, Ah-Kam divided them. Ah-Kam also had a deep cultivation in martial arts, the two moved a few yards away when pushed by Ah-Kam. The two saw their own mistakes. There, Ah-Kam suggested to go to a Chinese restaurant to wash away their hatred. They stored this experience deep down in their hearts. No one was gonna tell anything. Hoever, from then on, Bruce's waist requently felt uncomfortable.

The article has the flow of truth for me based on some known knowledge:

  • A. It was well known that when Bruce was filming in Thailand that he was "out in the sticks" and had lost some weight due to poor nutrition. Being in such a remote area; it is plausable that such an event had transpired without much documentation. This would account for the story not being very well known.
  • B. Thailand is known their Muy Thai art which is especially brutal.
  • C. We know Bruce was skillful, knowledgable, and would rarely back down if he thought someone would pose a challenge to his martial skill.
  • D. Bruce was still developing JKD and while in Thailand he it is probable that he could not resist stacking up his JKD to their national art.

Obviously there is no way to definitely ascertainly the truthfulness of this story but it is documented cited text and belief is left up to the reader of course. FrankWilliams 03:57, 27 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

checkuser[edit]

Re your message: I have reverted User:70.19.145.44's blanking of your checkuser request. We'll see whether or not Wikipedia:Requests for checkuser/Case/RevolverOcelotX turns up anything. --ElectricEye (talk) 11:46, 28 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Lee & Trapping[edit]

Lee covers the trapping range in Hand Immobilization Attack (HIA)& Foot Immobilization attack (FIA). Also, as we well know Wing Chun utilizes many types of traps of which no doubt Lee ported into JKD. FrankWilliams 13:49, 27 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Some updates[edit]

Hi Shucky, I saw your comment at Bishonen's talk page. You and Certified are the main clashes that I'm aware of Revolver having. That's why I only listed the three of you at that page. Regards, Ben Aveling 22:29, 27 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, Just letting you know that I have lodged an appeal at ANI on ApocalypticDestroyer's's behalf. Regards, Ben Aveling 08:46, 3 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

arbitraiton[edit]

Now Lion is recruiting a whole group of pro-China editors and admins who gang patrolled the articles to say negative stuff about me on the arbitration case. Hopefully, based on our past interaction, you will have something fair to say.--Certified.Gangsta 07:56, 11 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
