It'll be good to have at least one more DOOMer in the house. Thanks for that, ED.
As for the current prez, it's having a profound effect on Tiger Claw. 80%+ of our product comes from PRC, plus the bulk of our merch is uniforms, which could be stung hard with a clothing tariff. We've already seen big price jumps. The other thing is that the Wulin crosses all political views, so there are so many trumpers in the martial arts. I actually love that aspect of the Wulin - it cuts across everyone. It's so diverse. So I deal with a lot of trumpers through work. Many are completely batshit crazy, but it's morbidly fascinating to see them show their asses. Almost every terrorist is involved in the martial arts somehow. Most of them are wannabe MMAers, but still, the general public doesn't distinguish.
Actually I'm looking forward to seeing everyone. That's always the best part. But I've lost my right-hand man, Chris. He left Tiger Claw and moved to Tahoe to help his dad, then he slipped on some ice and blew his knee really badly. That was months ago. He just got off crutches and is in PT. Chris was my roommate for the last few years and kept bumper car-ing me back on track when I started to veer off the road. Not sure who I'll have this year. Maybe Edgar. Maybe Mark Badgett. We shall see how it all comes together.
Tomorrow is the last Judges Meeting. Now it's all about TCEC at work for me. yay.
