> How do you pronounce 'Capoeira'?

Kah-poo-wee-rah

Not dangerous?
Jon, more people have been sharing your opinon (especially the portuguese
slave drivers) until they were lying on the floor with a berimbau string
around their neck...
It was used by slaves and masked as a dance to mislead their oppressors as
they were forbidden to train martial arts. Nowadays however it seems to be
just a dance.

On another tip. I met a guy in Sao Paulo who was making jazzy jungle and
liked acid-jazz too. He told me that he was influenced and loved the music
of Mr. Bungle (freaky side project of Faith No More) which is an all-time
favourite of mine too. Any other fans of Bungle music here?
W.A.S.P?!? You aint seen nothing if you haven't watched a show by the
'Freaky Fukin'Weirdoz' from Germany :)

paz por tudo,
