Even my Kenpo instructors never mentioned it! Were they dropouts? No! But as you stated: >>As the art was passed down through the generations, certain methods were kept hidden or lost but the essential nature of their intent was always evident to anyone who would care to see.<< Sure, these hidden arts were there for "all who would care to see" as you put it, but to see it; you had to know what it was that you were looking for... and most of the martial art population at that time did not know...not even my Kenpo instructors who were directly from the Parker-Castro lineage and regularly took their students to Grandmaster Ed Parker's Internationals in Long Beach! (Btw, whoever has my Kenpo book, personally inscribed by GM Parker, please return it!) >From the book, KaJuKenBo Weaponry, by David Ducay: "In 1988, Sijo Adriano D. Emperado divulged that KaJuKenBo is actually an art within an art. This was unknown to many KaJuKenBo members at that time. The principles contained in Filipino Eskrima provided the way to combine the hard style techniques of many diverse styles with fluid body mechanics."

And he's dead. What better tribute can we give him? War movies are very much in vogue nowadays--"WindTalkers", "We Were Soldiers", "Rules of Engagement", "Pearl Harbor". Such a movie should be a bio of GM Giron (in w/c case it won't be more of a war movie than it would be a definite FMA movie). I've had it with FMA playing unsung or cameo roles in movies. I want it to be a dominant theme ALL THROUGHOUT the movies I see! I don't want it to be featured in a short clip of Guro Dan Inosanto clacking sticks with Seagal or doing a knife duel with Tommy Lee Jones. And please, no Ernie Reyes, Jr. or "Ninja Turtle" chopsocky stuff. I want genuine accurate, gung-ho FMA, not FMA packaged karate style. ===== Earn $$ just by receiving and reading email! http://www.resource-a-day.net/member/index.cgi?Brandon96 __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

BTW, just this morning I was surfing the channels and noticed an old episode of CHiPs that I hadn't seen before. It had a horrible MA theme, and guess who was in it and got the billing as the MA consultant... A much younger Guro I.
