Only my Canadian counterpart can explain this in a logical way-and make a connection to the Rev Wright scandal while he is at it………..(Warning: NSFW-Because the language is, you know, not safe for work). This has all the makings of a good AFN commercial. 🙁

The war post…….
MONTCALM But so many suns have set since Le Renard struck the war post. Is he not tired? MAGUA Where is that sun?! It has gone behind the hill. It is dark and cold. It has set on his people, they are fooled and kill all the animals and sell

Today has dawned on the Kanto Plain as Easter day should have dawned in any country-clear, bright, not a cloud in the sky. All in all a glorious day! Despite what my posts may convey or fail to convey, I do believe in God, his Son Jesus and the

If you are in the US or Japanese Navy, yesterday was just not a good day. On the US side: Lions and tigers and metal detectors oh my! That’s right, make sure you have a clean pair of boxers on if you are going through the gate of Yokosuka Naval

And effective today, I join the ranks of the leisure class-at least for a while. Today was my last full day at work. Clean out the desk, turn out the lights, wipe all the porn files off the computer. Stick a fork in me I am done! Hopefully, it will

Arthur C. Clarke passed away yesterday. Being something of a science fiction buff-but not a full fledged aficionado-it is with great sadness that we note his passing. I read a lot of his books, all of the 2001 series, and many of his articles in various magazines. 1968-yours truly, telling

It is March after all and that means that we are suffering throughobserving Women’s History month. In keeping with the tenure of the recent book I recently finished, The Nine by Jeffery Toobin, it seems only appropriate to take a quick look at one of the Supreme Court’s really bad

It is St Patrick’s day. What I SHOULD be doing is jumping on the train into Tokyo, and then drinking pint after pint of Cafferey’s ( Never have been much of a Guinness fan-it is just too heavy; but I do like a good Black and Tan.). I’ve celebrated St
