Anyway!
Tonight was great! It was a belt graduation. 5 people got new belts, and lots of people got stripes. It was so nice to see so many people get recognition for their hard work. It was especially fun to watch everyone who got their new belt get thrown repeatedly. Fabio has a tradition that when someone moves up a belt, everyone who out ranks them get to throw them... three times. There were 24 throwers which means everyone, except Mario who only got thrown by the purple+, got thrown 72 times. It was, for the most part all in good fun with a few over zealous take downs, but all in all, I think things like that bring everyone closer together. And that is one of the things I love most about Fabio's school. It is like a family... a giant manly butt kicking family... and I love them. =)
