Hello, You are one of my flavorite authors. I have three of your books so far and I am planning to get the rest of your books. Please keep up the writings.
Most of todays martials arts miss the object of martial art training and the real thing (fighting)is so different from the traditonal style of training. Those may have work back then , but today fighting is quick and fast. The book " Anything Goes" is something I started sharing with our students. Makes so much sence about training for a real street fight.
Thank-you for changing my way of training and thinking of the martial arts....Aloha from Hawaii.

So.....
Are you wearing pants this time and how would you kill a sumo wrestler? :EG:
Glad to see someone else from that mailing list on board here. I am about ready to use some old tangerines for your little exercise in Vital Targets. I am just having trouble finding someone willing to be the actor.

I'm still trying to figure how to respond here, so I hope I'm doing this right.
Thanks for your kind words. Much appreciated. I just try to do my little part to save martial artists from that gut wrenching feeling of coming face-to-face with some big ape who has muscles even his hair, and suddenly realizing, "I only know how to do musical kata."
It's critical that we keep the sense of real fighting in what we do.

Hey Don,Don Roley said:
This is our little secret...but I darned near broke my fingers on that melon because I kept missing the eye holes. If you look close you can see it. We only had one melon so we couldn't re-shoot. Besides, my fingers were shot, anyway.
Starting with tangerines is good, or grapes.
This looks like a great list, too.

Hey Folks,
Just wanted to let you know that with Loren on the scene, you have access to someone with a wealth of knowledge, both theoretical and road tested. Also, Loren is my very first instructor in karate 38 years ago! Welcome aboard, sensei!
Yours,
Dan Anderson
PS- Loren - email me. Got news for you.

Hi Paul,
Yep. You like real deal? Loren is real deal. He served as a military policeman in Saigon during the Vietnam war and then for over 20 years (I believe) as a cop in Portland. He damn near beat me half to death on his 2nd degree black belt test. I was on his grading board and his sparring partner and this was back when I was lean and mean myself. I have nothing but the highest respect for Loren. He's also a great guy as well.
Yours,
Dan

It's easy to get Dan. Wait until he's sleeping then user a sniper rifle that has accuracy up to one mile.

Thanks for your kind words.
Looking at your pic...hopefully Solo Training didn't do that to you.
I just finished Solo 2. Should be out in the spring.
