a classic: “Hallowed Be Thy Name” by Iron Maiden.

I still remember the first time I heard that song.

good bot.

Aw yeah, if you already know your rolls and breakfalls, Aikido is a great thing to check out. At lower levels, the “attacks” are basically two-person katas, usually involving escaping from grabs. At upper levels they do have something called randori but even then it’s all very structured. Aikido gets made fun of sometimes for not having a “live” adversary who’s actively trying to beat you. I’ve read there are some dojos that do competitive Aikido, but I think that’s rare.

In the martial arts, Tai Chi is the obvious answer.

Consider Aikido. It’s generally more like choreographed exercises. A lot of dojos are very understanding of physical constraints. Check with your doctor, it might be good way to gently test your limits. Plus, it’s important to know how to fall safely.

Evil Genie: “Granted.” It starts to rain. It never stops.

Nice try, ICE.

Boston is so awesome. You didn’t mention the museums, historical places, concerts, festivals, theaters, hundreds of little cafes and restaurants, bookstores, art galleries, several dozen universities each with events open to the public. Taking the T (public transportation) over to the Boston Common to see what’s going on, then walking through downtown, maybe stop at Fanueil Hall for a snack, then go all the way to the North End to a restaurant. Oh gods I’m homesick and I only lived there like 8 years.
