Give me a name for this: Just to give you guys a few things to think about for a possible integration in the name: - I will be getting promoted to black belt in Kajukenbo on Sept. 25th - I will be getting promoted to black belt in Kwanmukan in the next few months - All put together by RTH members (except for one slab from ebay) - Originally studied Kempo before changing to my current school - Golden Pyramid Martial Arts is the name of my current school - 3 and 1/2 year journey from when I started in March of 2008 - I plan to continue studying - I would like to have a martial arts/Oriental theme in the name I will select my favorite names from the submissions (and maybe add one of my own based on the ideas you give me ;D ). Then all you all will vote on the best name. Prize will be a medium flat rate box of rough. This will stay open for at least a week. If one of you damn foreigners ( ;D) wins the contest, I'll need help with shipping.

What about the damn forigners who worked at the gate? ;D Are they allowed to compete? Not that I have the idea of a name including that tongue-fracturing K words, but at least to know if I'd stretch my brains Adrian

AGATE to the continued RIGHTEOUS TEACHINGS OF HONOR in Kajukenbo and Kwanmukan martial arts. (AGATE to be pronounced with a hard "A" as in gate... A Gate but spelled like the stone agate) Just my little play on words also employing the initials of the forum RTH-with the words "Righteous Teachings of Honor"
