All in all, not a bad month. I'm glad the low end of Disney sales seems to be creeping up from the 4000's into the 5000's. DDA is down a bit from last month, but not too much.<BR>
<BR>
To Gary Leach: Thanks for answering my questions. Personally, I think it rather sucks that Disney has that much control over the advertising in the comics, but that's just me.<BR>

As far as I know,<BR>
"judo" and "jiu jitsu" are just 2 names for the same style of fighting.<BR>

<BR>
Basically judo is an offshoot of jiu jitsu. A jiu jitsu master created judo around 1905.<BR>
