I'm currently parked in the middle school band room waiting to view Abby's pictures. They have a sign-in sheet but are they bothering to actually refer to it? Nooooooo, because that would make sense and require actual work on their part. The whole thing has the potential to become a massive clusterfuck in a hurry.
Inara: So. Would you like to lecture me on the wickedness of my ways? Book: I brought you some supper, but if you'd prefer a lecture, I've a few very catchy ones prepped. Sin and hellfire... one has lepers.

Natter 64: Yes, we still need you

As soon as I figure out how to accomplish things wholly through the power of my mind, a whole lot of people are going to get punched in the crotch simultaneously.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Kathy A, that's exciting news. I know several people who have been happy with their outcomes.
Seska, I know not of various martial arts and what would work best with what abilities and disses... but I do know that my Mixed Martial Arts school does an adaptive program with the local UCP. I can't find the video, but at one point a guy launches off his walker, drops to the mat and starts grappling, really whaling on his opponent... On a less flashy level, I had a classmate missing a lot of pectoral muscle from breast cancer surgery and our instructors would help her find alternate approaches for various exercises. The fact that there were big thick mats everywhere certainly made it safer for them to push their physical limits and get stronger.
Anyway, maybe you'd have better luck looking for local schools that do adaptive programs rather than a form that adapts.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
shrift, if you figure it out, please share the knowlege. I just had three people from the same company call asking for the same information ... and one called twice because she wrote the information in an e-mail message and then, rather than sending it, deleted it.

RIP, man. You're the main reason for post-structuralism, and for that alone...

Now that sounds like fun.

I've been looking, but not getting anywhere. (You'd think a city the size of London would have adapted martial arts somewhere. Will keep looking.)

Oh, what a shame. (Although I see he was 100. Not at all bad.) He had some fab ideas.
