1. -- Buddha Kung Fu EVENTS --

Founder's Day = Appreciate Your Shifu

I enjoy promoting FILIAL PIETY, because I, as Father, am the worthy recipient of...

Seriously, let's be a big happy family.

I've devoted 20 years to my children and now I want to devote 20 years to Buddha Kung Fu. That also includes Tai Chi Youth and Shaolin Chi Mantis. They're all the same to me, like playing different guitars, but still playing guitar.

When I work for my record company, Shaolin Records, that's like playing the drums...

When I work for American Zen, that's like playing the flute and singing...

Thanks for all your love and support.

It's your appreciation that makes it worthwhile. (Especially since I'm not being paid).

2. -- TCY ONLINE SCHOOL --

NEW TCY Online School Design

I've been drawing blueprints and showing them to students.

Overall, it looks like we need TWO ADJACENT office spaces.

The Left space will be the TCY Online School.

The Right space will be the TCY Home Office.

The TCY Program Director will work with the TCY Membership Director in the TCY Home Office.

Buddha Zhen will work in the TCY Online School.

Since I need to work full-time for the first couple years at least, producing the videos... teaching classes... I need my own secretary. The TCY Membership Director will have plenty of work without handling the business of my record company, Shaolin Records, my music publishing company, Shaolin Music, and my book publishing company, Shaolin Communications. Plus, I am also The Hippy Coyote of American Zen. So, I need my own secretary to take care of my business for all those enterprises so I can work for Tai Chi Youth full time.

Anyone want to be my secretary?

4. -- Buddha Kung Fu DEMO TEAM --

Who's Coming to the Founder's Day?

I've been inviting people, but not many confirmations.

I have a really cool concept for my OTHER BIRTHDAY PARTY as The Hippy Coyote. We're going to use the CV Park computers and have guided tours through the American Zen website. Then we'll have a test.

Yep, a test.

But we'll give prizes to the people who have the correct answers.

Everyone should win something!

5. -- BOOKS of Buddha Kung Fu --

Human Values = Bookwork Class

Maybe "bookwork" isn't the right word for it, but I don't want to hide the truth either. This is a book and we're going to WORK on it. Each week has answers to be answered, then to be discussed. Some answers may be private, so it may require the Shifu to spend private time with each student during the hour.

When the Shifu is "counseling" or "coaching" or ... what do we call it? Anyway, when the Shifu is discussing with a student individually, the other students could be doing what? Suggestions?

6. -- MUSIC of Buddha Kung Fu --

"Kill The Spider" = Buddha Zhen THEME SONG

Disciple Shawn has urged Buddha Z to use this song for Buddha Zhen's THEME SONG.

During the BOW TO SHIFU at the beginning and endings of class, Buddha Zhen has had a habit for many years of humming a little musical riff representing his theme song. Since the previous riff was actually a riff from a television show, so we won't mention it, some students, like Shawn have realized that Buddha Z wanted a riff he could use that would not cause legal issues, royalty problems...

We found it. The opening riff of "Kill The Spider" is perfect for Buddha Zhen when he announces himself. Check it out.

8. -- Buddhism NEWS --

Buddha Kung Fu Disciples are Kung Fu Cowboys

Cool LEVEL 4 website huh?

But it's the OLD concept. Huh?

The LEVEL 4 website of American Zen was created BEFORE The Hippy Coyote finished evolving the storyline and rock opera into the story of Hiram Abif.

Rather than change it, as if I've had time, I left it the way it was. It's cool like the KUNG FU COWBOY ORIGINAL DRAFT book.

Oh yeah. There's another way to support my birthday. Buy my book, Kung Fu Cowboy ORIGINAL DRAFT. That will make me very happy...

Tai Chi Youth Membership Director

This is an important position to Buddha Kung Fu.

The TCY Membership Director plans all the events and parties of Tai Chi Youth. These are also the parties and ceremonies of Buddha Kung Fu.

No one has applied for this position yet.

I've created some really good benefits and a 10% increase in wages every year for 6 years...

TCY Online School

If anyone would like to see/read/study the TCY Business Plan of 2011, let me know.

I'd like as much feedback as possible.

We need an attorney for Tai Chi Youth. This person could be on our TCY Advisory Board, if they can't be very involved, or we want to test them out. Perhaps we could have several attorneys on our TCY Advisory Board and then select the best or most appropriate one for our TCY Board of Trustees.

Please submit to me your attorney recommendations.

Thanks.
