Back in the right hemisphere again. Its great to be home! One thing about spending 16 hours on airplanes each way, it definitely lets you catch up on your reading. It was also interesting to be back in the USA for a while, which had its own observations worth noting.

You go away for a week…..and look what happens!
I have not even been away from the land of the rising sun for a week, and I find myself in trouble big time. CDR Salamander has tagged me with a meme: MEME: An idea that, like a gene, can replicate and evolve. Examples of memes (and meme systems) include

Quick post here, between very contentious meetings, making the circuit of the bars in town and trying to use the remaining time before sleep to catch up on e-mail and phone calls to Japan. Saw Star Wars, and I stand by all my previous opinions. I give the movie and

Last post for a couple of days as I head to Narita tomorrow to fly to the states for a bit. Business combined with seeing my parents will probably keep me in the low profile mode for a while especially if I am having to deal with a dial up

I’ve been in a real down mood the last couple of days. Not sure why and it probably something I need to set down here in this forum, but I’m not quite ready do it just yet. There have been some very thoughtful articles and posts that I have been

Warning Notice! What follows in this post is not politically correct and will offend any and all feminists and others who can’t see the forest for the trees….however it is how a lot of men feel. Or, phrased another way: Republicans in the US House of Representatives introduced an amendment

A few months back I posted about the woeful state of U.S. Airlines and why I hate to fly on American carriers. This week United proved me right yet again. Time to move my allegiance to ANA, JAL and Singapore Airways. United’s management showed its true colors on Wednesday, when
