Yep—Arm. Bar!

The complicated bit is if they're drunk and their arms go all like noodles anyway. Then you have a bit more of a challenge.

I think the more likely challenge is that I'm drunk and have no co-ordination in my legs.

Drunken Jujitisu must be fun to watch...

Which Jujistsu are you doing, Jackie? Traditional or Brazilian?

Brazilian. I dunno if I'm gonna stick with it - I'm gonna try classes at three different places (the BJJ one, an Aikido one, and one that mixes different styles) and see which one I want to go with. Aikido seems likely to win, by way of having classes at the beach and inviting students for a swim after.

Thought I would come back and say that after trying a bunch of different schools - most either with teachers who didn't seem very good at explaining things, or just kind of like aerobic classes with punches and kicks - I've very happily settled on a small dojo right near my work. I'm doing wing chung and BJJ, and really loving BJJ. It's so amazingly strategic - from each position, figuring out the best submission to try for, setting them up by faking different techniques, and then being ready for the counter you think the other guy will use. So many counters and recounters! And the teacher's great - explains everything starting really simply, then building complexity. Plus, omplatas fucking rule. I dunno how you spell them (it's a shoulder lock), but I could drill them all day.
