Dave - Martial Arts Master
    #14036326 - 02/27/11 02:30 PM (13 years, 6 days ago)

This story took place over 30 years ago and is a sort of book end to my story from a few weeks back.

I used to work out daily at the local health club and then often walked over to 'Our Place', a corner bar, where many of the gym rats hung out.

On one deserted Wednesday night, I got to talking to Dave, the bar owner. He was an old bear of a man, maybe 65, gray and balding, with a bulbous nose from too many years of heavy drinking, and always had a cigarette in hand. He was about 6' 4" and at about 120 pounds overweight with a huge girth.

We get to talking and talking and he locks the empty bar at 2AM, but keeps pouring for the two of us. Dave proceeds to tell me about how he ran a dojo in his 30s and 40s. Looking at his current state of health, I am not convinced and tell him so. He says he got tired of training 4 hours a day and burned out on it after 25 years. I take it with a grain of salt, neither believing nor disbelieving.

Dave finally closes the bar at 4AM. We head out to our cars parked in a wide alley. Now crime in this upper-middle class neighborhood was very low, so the idea of getting robbed never occurred to me.

As we are about to get in our cars, three youths appear from the shadows with knives out, and the leader barks "Give us your money!"

I start trembling and mumble "Oh shit!" to myself. The normally soft-spoken Dave replies in a commanding voice, "Before you boys get started, I want to show you something." He then walks over to the brick wall of his bar and points to the leader and then towards the wall, making a small high circle. "This here is your head." He then crouches into a karate stance and throws a straight-in full power punch to the wall with a dull thud echoing in the alley. A small flake of relatively new brick drops to the ground.

The tension and the silence builds. Dave slowly turns to the leader and says in his Tennessee drawl, "I just thought I'd give you fair warning of what you boys are up against 'cuz I really don't want to hurt you."

The leader looks Dave up and down for any sign of weakness or fear - and then at Dave's undamaged hamhock. Me? I am bravely hiding behind the man-mountain.

"Aw shit, man. We wuz just funnin'," the would-be mugger says as he slowly backs up with his compadres following his lead.

Dave laconically says, "I thought so. Y'all have a good night now."

So what is the point of this story? Your assumptions were falsified?

You felt the need to type up this story, why did you want to tell it to us?
