I, being a father of two, have found that my alertness level went way up once I became a father. And a husband for that matter. Awareness really is a great tool. Since we are on that subject can anyone suggest some good reads, DVDs, etc... on awareness? Living and working in East Los Angeles I have collected my own set of "awareness tools" but I am always looking for upgrades or new perspectives. Thanks again.

Reply-To: eskrima@martialartsresource.net Mark Mac Said: "Bob is a dear friend of ours (Peyton Quinn lives up the road, Bob down the road)." Holy crap! All you guys together? I bet all the other neighbors feel extremely safe OR are scared to leave their homes. Now this may explain why I thought I saw Mark in a Peyton Quinn video a while back. Actually, come to think of it, I think that is where I learned the "alien" move. -Nat _______________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Win 1 of 4,000 free domain names from Yahoo!

What style does or did he teach? And was he a student from a grandmaster from the Philippines? or did he learn it here in the states? --__--__-- _______________________________________________ Eskrima mailing list Eskrima@martialartsresource.net http://martialartsresource.net/mailman/listinfo/eskrima http://eskrima-fma.net Old digest issues @ ftp://ftp.martialartsresource.com/pub/eskrima Copyright 1994-2004: Ray Terry, MartialArtsResource.com, Sudlud.com Standard disclaimers apply.
