Back when I was practicing my time was limited to work, Judo and catching up on sleep :)
They must have burned out with Internet Judo :) Mostly reminiscing with me since I stopped Judo so long ago.
Sometimes I think of all the Judo kids and adults I taught from 56+ years ago and wonder where they are now. Some still keep in touch and even visit! Then in early 2002, while visiting our Navy son...
My wife and our daughter planned and executed my birthday party in our small home here in Lake Placid, Florida that went very well. Several local friends came and some of my old Judo students from...
No, stopped training many years ago.
Just four of my Dade County, FL Judo Clubs:

Funny, my 80th birthday is this Saturday, so my wife and daughter have planned a birthday party for me. They got on Facebook and located some of my Judo students from Miami, Florida from 1973 until...

Dave Gorden????
Hey Dave, it has been awhile since we last chatted. Are you still above room temperature? Will wait for a reply.
Well, Edge works okay. Oh well.
Well, I still can't get on using IE 11. Anything you can do?
Jeff
And this usng Chrome.
Yes, I am trying Edge since I hate Chrome. I think it is because IE 11 is on MS's shit list.
Hey, I've been a member since the last century and my IE 11 will not get me back onto the forum; whuz up?

My knees still work great after 9 years, but the rest of me needs a new robot body :)
Arthritis caused my knees to wear down to bone on bone so total replacement cured that. Now my hips are going! Bone spurs are not cured with any actions and exercise; sorry. But, you do get help...
Well, while I have no idea who you are or your age and where you learned karate on Okinawa; but those Peter Urban ads in “True Detective” are as phony as three dollar bills. For every so-called...
Peter Urban studied a bastardized form of Goju ryu and not the original form. My mentor, friend and master of Goju ryu, Miyazato Eiichi, lived on Okianwa,...
Yeah Dave, it seems like so many old Judo buddies drop off the edge and are never heard from again. Our problem is we lived too long :)
Hum, after giving up looking for an old USAF Judo friend, Len Vieira, he found me on FB. He was stationed at Homestead AFB, FL when I knew him and in 1977 he transferred to Hawaii before retiring. ...
Sounds right. I was his student in 1961-62 and Nagamine sensei, some other karateka and I would randori on his wood floors occasionally. I was primarily a Judo guy but many of his friends and...
Listened to this in Classical setting whilst doing Judo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZMFXJ168-vY&list=PL00AC272C0B608737&index=6
An e-mail from Jerry Hays (San Diego, CA):
Roy H. Moore, Jr., age 96, passed away on 2 January 2018. He was born on 29 June 1921.
He started judo under his dad, Roy H. (Pop) Moore in the late...
Dave, sometimes I hate thinking about all the friends and relatives in my life that are long gone. My late 98 year-old grandmother once told me the worst part of growing so old is losing everyone...
