Tough.

What do you want, somebody to make something up? We haven't heard of him all right?!

Still looking...

Might help as you know more about what you're looking for than me.

Either way, it seems like an excellent resource IMO.

This thread is making me wonder why there is not a database specifically designed for such a search. Or is there and I don't know about it?

Honest answers, please.

[blackmantis]

No luck... eheu.

Sorry dood, that's all I could find.

[Fighting_Lad]

Pretty cool the way people try to make jokes.

[unkokusai]

I wonder if he ever found what he was looking for.

[mkriii]

amazes and sickens me.

Why is it so amazing and why does it sicken you? Do you think that this Double Dragon Institute should be known by all? A little egoscentric don't you think?

Do you know about my school called International Kung Fu Academy in Lexington Kentucky

If you haven't heard of my school I'm going to be amazed and sickened. You see what I mean?

Was it listed on your unsolicited 'resume' that went over like a lead balloon?

[mkriii]

Unk......Why yes it was. I see you heard of it. See my resume worked. Weather you liked it or not it got the name out there. So ha ha. :D

[unkokusai]

Yeah, you're 'out there' all right...

This if from www.wikipedia.org

Gerard Houghton likes big butts and he can not lie
His other hing dai can't deny
That when a girl walks in with an itty bitty waist
And a round thing in your face
He get sprung son

There, are your questions now answered?

[lkfmdc]

I have climbed highest mountains
I have run through the fields
Only to be with you
Only to be with you
I have run
I have crawled
I have scaled these city walls
These city walls
Only to be with you

But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for

I have kissed honey lips
Felt the healing fingertips
It burned like a fire
This burning desire

I have spoke with the tongues of angels
I have held the hand of a devil
It was warm in the night
I was cold as a stone

But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for

I believe in the Kingdom Come
When all the colors will bleed into one
Bleed into one
Well, yes I'm still running

You broke the bonds
And you loosened the chains
Carried the cross
Of all my shame
all my shame
You know I believe it

But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for

I`m not familiar with Gerard Houghton, but I have heard of the Double Dragon Martial Arts Institute in Kyoto. I searched for any current info when I moved to Japan, but didn`t find anything. I do know that when I first heard of it in the 80`s it was still being run by it`s founder, a Chinese named Long Ching-Gang. (Don`t know the characters, sorry). He was teaching Chen style Tai Chi and some type of Pa Kua Chang (I don`t know the sub-style). Friends in Japan said he was Known for his iron palm and could do short power (ie "1 inch punch") very well.

If you do find anything out, PM me. I`m several hours north of there in Hokkaido, but I wouldn`t be above looking the place up if I knew where to go.
