Since no one has posted it, let me be the first here to publically congratulate my buddy and teammate Bill Stevens on his well deserved promotion to brown belt from our instructor Louis Vintaloro. His purple belt was about to fall off anyways, so it was deffinitely about time.
I'd also like to apologize for whipping him in the face with my belt during the post-promotion beat down.
Congrats. Brown is major.

Congrats and LOL @ SlapUsilly's over exuberance at the belt beatdown.
