Different styles of meditation?

Ive heard of different styles of meditation, like the kind where you just sit and chant to yourself, the kind where you do a pose of some sort with or without chanting, where you lay and breathe a certain way, basically all the ones that you can easily find by looking at a meditation website or wikipedia or various books on the subject.

However, I saw a book a while back, cant remember what it was called and the book was already gone when I went back, but it dealt with meditation or Tai Chi but while walking. I dont know how accurate that is, but I couldve sworn it said something like Walking Chi or Walking Meditation. Anyways, I am wondering if anyone has ever heard of that, if so how do I do it.

Also, what other forms are there that focus on meditation, like Tai Chi, Qigong, Yoga, etc., I would like to know all the different styles of it, so I can pick one and go with it. I dont have trouble sitting still or anything, its just I find it easier to think of nothing when I am moving. Anyways, any help would be greatly appreciated, really want to start meditating, just want to find the right style first. By the way, Im not religious in any way, but I did grow up Christian and that is the God I prefer, but Id like to keep religion out of it, I feel its better that way.

Bruce Lee and Chuck Norris fought in Real Life.?

WIKIPEDIA:
Lee had repeatedly humiliated Norris during a mock sparring session in the hotel hallway at the Long Beach International Karate Championships. Norris had offended Lee when he publicly claimed to be a better fighter than Lee. When word got back to Lee, he called Norris and openly challenged him, threatening to drive to his school to fight (Norris was teaching his black belt class at that time). According to eye witnesses, Lee made Norris hold the phone receiver up and shout in front of his black belts, “Bruce Lee is a better fighter than me!” Later, Norris wrote an Apologetic Letter to Lee; the original is currently in the care of Lee’s student, Dan Inosanto.

What do you think “kung fu” originally means?

According to Wikipedia “Its original meaning is somewhat different, referring to one’s expertise in any skill, not necessarily martial.”

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kung_fu_%28term%29

I’ve heard about other possible meanings like “free time” or “spare time”. How do you think I can make sure that Wikipedia’s answer is correct. Thanks.
