He was one of the great Shaolin monks. A huge man with a big beard. Gentle as a teddy bear, but man, what Kung Fu. He could take all that girth, infuse it with qi, and it was like a wrecking ball, a laser-precise wrecking ball.
I didn't know him well but did write a cover story on him.

I spotted him at Shaolin. He wanted nothing to do with me. Saw him when he came to LA and he performed at the Bowers. Wanted less to do with me.
But I did get him in one of my favorite photos from the trip.

Yes, that's him. That is one of my favorite of your Shaolin photos. The B&W filter sells it.
I'm not sure any of us wants anything to do with you. You're such a bumout when it comes to movie reviews...

G-Man’s Shaolin Trip (see what I did there, DM?) yielded so many great pics. Time for another calendar!
In the Tudor Period, Fencing Masters were classified in the Vagrancy Laws along with Actors, Gypsys, Vagabonds, Sturdy Rogues, and the owners of performing bears.

I was told by my Godson that no one uses calendars anymore. Everyone has those details on their phones.
