"Listen for the ninja, who never make a sound."

Spring has sprung, and so have things here at Old Abbot. Like a Cherry Blossom that begins as a seed and germinates into flower. Our story of competitive fighting game players Robert Elizondo and Izzy Lee has matured from a story of a passionate pass time into a tales of one's passion for life no matter the obstacle or outcome of the match.



With Izzy Lee's Tournament Win at Combo Breaker over Adam 'Ketis' Heart the Editor-in-Chief of SRK in the Grand Finals of Marvel vs Capcom 3: Fate of Two Worlds. Only after losing to Ketis earlier in the Semi-Finals, and coming back from the losers bracket to reset the match, and take the Championship in the end. It looks like Izzy's and Rob's stories will continue onto the Ultimate Fighting Game Tournament VII: Resurrection in Chicago this May which is an EVO 2k11 qualifier. With practice, skill, and the warrior's way onto the EVO World Championships 2011 in Las Vegas this July.



Production has wrapped on the Can Do Canines vignette Documentaries for their Seventh Annual Fundraising Luncheon this May. This years theme is A Ripple in the Pond and the shorts will focus on an Assistance Dog named Cher, and how she has changed so many peoples lives beyond that of her Owner. Post-Production phase, begin!



Production on Antwone Adams has been put on pause for the time being, with the competitive fighting game Documentary that has blossomed and grown into something much larger. A full-length feature Film with some ole luck of the Irish. Pre-Production is still very much in motion with scripts being penned and tweaked for season one and beyond. Antwone's stories will come true sooner than later.



On my most recent viewed list I've re-watched the Shogun Assassin aka the Lone Wolf and Cub saga including the rare volume seven titled Lone Wolf and Cub: A Handful of Sand and made in 1993. Also, Grandma's Boy, Radio Flyer, and 3 Ninjas, which "crosses Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and Home Alone" says the Boston Globe. More updates and projects in the pipeline as always. Same URL, some other time, stay tuned.
