Nothing pithy to write today, I am afraid. I’m just too tired to get anything useful out. It was a good day though, a nice day just a lot of fun. The S.O. and I quickly kissed and made up since both of us wanted to play golf today. Can’t

It’s the little victories that count. Tonight, I carried on an argument with the S.O. (almost)entirely in Japanese. ( It was not an argument really, I’d call it more of an explanation. When the chair comes flying at you, as it did with my ex…now that’s an argument!). I’m so

Well its less than 9 hours before Typhoon 11 is supposed to get here. (??????.It seems to be heading right for the Kanto Plain: Came home, cleaned off the balcony and made the S.O. a nice spaghetti dinner. She is in a nice mood tonight so if I stop this

I’ve decided to go on a rampage this coming week. I’m joining the forces ridiculing watching Michelle Maclagalang. The woman needs sedatives, quickly. Came upon this though, while doing some internet research. She seems to have taken offense to it. Can’t for the life of me understand why: Taken straight

TGIF!!!! Today is a beautiful, albeit, hot day. I should be out playing golf, but instead I’m in going over budget sheets……..Deciding which pots of money we can spend out of and which we can’t. They should just write a check out to me and I’ll spend it well, I

The next Japanese election is on September 11 th. How wierd is that? I miss the days when 9/11/xx was just another day in the week. Bin Laden and his ilk should be hung by their gonads for that travesty alone…….they screwed up the good life over here in Asia.
