Paul Janulis hospitalized...

[James Patrick]

Master of Defense Paul Janulis was hospitalized today with lacerations on his arms and face, and blunt force trauma all over his body. He suffered a concussion and 3 broken ribs as well. He has been in a coma since 3pm today, so we haven't gotten the full story.

A note of some kind was left on the scene (his apartment); it said something about how his Modern Arnis is not the true Modern Arnis or something like that. It looks as if the injuries were inflicted by sticks, knives, and martial art foot pads.

The police are suspicious that it was actually a gang of pre-adolecent Tang Soo Do stylists from a local family Karate school hired by one of the larger Modern Arnis oganizations to teach Master Paul a lesson, as he has been an ongoing nuisance to the Filipino Martial Arts community.

This is all the info I have at this time. Please pray that he may survive;

More to follow as I gather more information.

James

I don't expect he'll make it. RIP Mr. Janulis.

Paul's last post was at 4:33 pm eastern.

If this is an April Fool's joke, it's in poor taste.

Wait a minute....is this for real ? What is this about "RIP" ?

I find this hard to believe....that something like this would happen. Keep us up to date.

Indeed,if this is an April Fool's joke, it is in very poor taste.

OMG!! I've heard about those guys...Yeah,they like to run with those Kempo stylists from Chuan Fa schools...some very shady characters....

Clearly a joke, but definitely in questionable taste.

 

[James Patrick]

Because people are questioning the tastefulness of the joke, I will let the cat out of the bag right now: yes of course it was an April fools joke.
Oh well...I thought it was funny. I mean, yes it starts out with analarming title and a little "Oh my gosh," but it does get sillier and sillier. Especially at the end? With some of the wounds being inflicted by Martial Arts Kick Pads? With the prime suspects being pre-adolescent (ages 10 - 12) Tang Soo Do practitioners? I figured everyone would get that it was an April fools joke by then.

I liked Mr. Kembudo-Kai Kempoka and Mr. Big Nicks responses. :lol: That only compounded the joke, and they seemed to have gotten it.

But it was ment to be a joke, and I really am sorry if I alarmed or upset anyone, because that was not my intent. I was just having a little April fools day fun. Taste Questionable? Yes...but so are shows like Southpark, and I still watch that and think it's funny. Oh well, no more jokes for me for a while...

Yours,
James

Have you ever taught a kids class??? I usually went home with bruised ribs after teaching the kids class.

 

[Bammx2]

Hey! I was just tryin to get the guy a little slack!

I figured he has the skill to tackle a pile of 10 year olds!

11 year olds..........
hhhmmm..............

I don't teach kids.
I ran an ice cream stand at a cub scout jamboree once.
after the machines went down,it became known as the great cub scout inqisition of '83.
It was total chaos!
I'm still scarred.I can't go near a first aid class or a swiss army knife to this very day.
the horror...the horror
