"Silly story" ? Nothing to do with the art of Aikido ? I disagree and think perhaps the discussions on the duality of the aikidoka with the "rat pack style" should have been started on a new thread.

If Aikido doesn't bring us bring us closer to acting like the man with red bandana, then maybe we should give it up. People claim that Aikido is about being centered in moments of chaos and love of humanity (even love of our attackers). Yet when a example of these attributes is posted, it gets criticized and the topic is changed away from the "inane" and "silly" link, in a somewhat condescending manner.
