As a martial artist, we’re taught to use whatever weapons are available. Whether that be our fists and feet, or…. something else. This weekend Steve and I were unloading the dishwasher and on either side of it. He began his customary trash talk so I flicked a roundhouse kick out over the dishwasher, (yes we’re still living the Mr. and Mrs. Smith movie.) Steve and I have sparred each other enough times to predict what the other is going to do next. For instance, I knew a backfist was going to be coming to the side of my head because it’s Steve’s signature move. So I used the weapon available to me…. the stainless steel pot I was drying off. Yes folks, I blocked the backfist with the pot. Steve howled “OW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! DO NOT POT BLOCK ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!” Yes that’s a martial arts term: Pot Block- or poto blockchi in Japanese. They’re teaching it at all the dojos. ;D You should see what I can do with a spoon- also called spoonodachi in Japanese. ;D
