But I am definitely feeling my age. If you are ever interested in taking Karate, might I recommend the same style I chose? It is authentic Okinawan karate and has bout 70 kata as opposed to Goju Ryu, although authentic too, which has only about 10 or so. By all means, stay away from non-authentic styles like unrestricted martial arts or the karate mills that sell belts. You are welcome Karen. But I am definitely feeling my age.

Thanks for this education you're giving me in karate, John! Oh, and thank you for giving blood!
