I understand your point now. Maybe I should rethink my views on what's going on. You say I'm not that old but I sure 'feel' like it. Old injuries comin back, takes me forever to heal. I was thinking about teaching my two boys what I was taught just to keep the art alive. However, I will have to teach them extreme disipline first. I'm still in pretty decent shape--can still run a five minute mile--usually run(notice run not jog) two to six miles a day. The only proof I have are some pictures that were taken while my Si Fu was writing his first book and then his second one a little later. At least I can show my grandkids--"Look there, that's your grandpa with the equiptment on--that's your grandpa sitting on the floor listening to his teacher"--there was also a group picture taken but I don't remember if it was included in his book. I'll have to dig it out and see.
Macias huh? sounds interesting. I would like to look into it if possible. Is there a website I can visit?
