-Profanity Alert!-
While I was out studying (fat lot of good it did me!) more than a few things happened. Presented here, in no particular order, are my thoughts about some of these breaking events.

As for the Japanese test, the less said the better. Perhaps the words of a noted Scientologist best sums it up:
Looks like the University of Illinois!
<——————————————————————————–>
Three Words: Barry Bonds Blows!
As a loyal Pirate fan, there is really nothing else to say.
Enjoy it while it lasts, steroid boy, A-Rod will take your record soon enough.

Only in the twisted world that passes for government in Hong Kong, could someone cite the American Electoral process as proof Hong Kongers don’t need democracy.

Speaking of repressed governments, who says Singapore is not progressive?
There are people who will pay good money to see this!

I bought Christopher Hitchens book a couple of days ago. I thought reading it over in Korea might put me in the right mindset to spend 3 weeks dealing with the evangelicals and other true believers.
There is only one problem though. Having spent more than a couple of hours in various pews inside the confines of the Holy City, its tough to make any progress through the book when you are constantly looking over your shoulder for the not so stray lightning bolt.

Mili is on her way to Prague. And I’m going to Korea. Try convincing me again there is justice in the world.
She also told me something I never knew about asparagus. Excuse me dear lady, how exactly do you know this?

In case you ever wondered why the S.O. puts up with me, here is why. Its a tough world for Japanese women. The bigger question though is why I put up with her. I’m still searching for the answer to that!.

Do you hate your cat? This:
should be reported to the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals.

Stephen Colbert sums up bloggers and Dkos. A blogger is someone who: has a laptop, an axe to grind, and their virginity.
Does that last one count if you blog in Thailand?
<———————————————————————————–>
As may have mentioned before, the S.O. is positively estactic of the recent downfall of LDP in the polls. This little tidbit explains why in 500 words or less.
Abe-san’s response? Become a superhero!

Op-For has a pretty good post up about the death of Officers Clubs. As one who enjoyed the glory days at: Miramar, Tinker, Howard, Oceana and a few that still remain classfied……..suffice it to say I echo their sentiments.
I also realized that I have been remiss in not linking to them. That’s fixed!

Speaking of dead O’clubs, and did I mention I’m pissed off about going to Korea? More than a few times you say? Well that’s why I need one of these:
Taken from a pretty cool web site with pictures of Korea during the Korean war. I’ve been surfing the net trying to get in the mood.
Ja mata ne!
