An update on MHP#2 (karate kicking guy)

Today while sitting in the coffee shop again, MHP#2 (aka the karate kicking dude) put on a display right in front of my window. He tried in vain multiple times to fall into traffic. I have no idea how he didn't get cleaned up by a car in one particular instance, it must have been damn close. 

I've now worked out that he is not attempting to karate kick but to practice Baseball pitching! He stands sideways, brings his hands together then very suddenly kicks out his left leg and throws his right arm back. This leads to an instant and explosive loss of balance, I'm quite impressed that he never actually goes down and somehow regains his balance.

  2. As Palauan who is currently living in the US, I truly enjoyed reading your post. It is so refreshing to read about the your reactions and observations on numerous things about my home island. Your observations are so valuable as I will encourage my fellow Palauans to read and hopefully help better some of the services and such. Not trying to make excuse for my fellow Palauans, but they are so used to certain way of how things done, that it takes an outsider to make realize that some things they are ridicules and need some improvements. Sorry about your sport channel disappearing. Thanks for a great read and looking forward to your nest post.
