My First Japanese Typhoon
May 30, 2003
It’s not even summer and a typhoon is heading in from the southwest. In Kyushu, they’re getting some rain and wind. In Osaka, where I am, the sky started out blue this morning but now it has grayed a bit. The wind isn’t strong but it makes its presence. It’s a welcome presence I must say because it’s quite hot today. It says on the news that the typhoon will be on top of Osaka tomorrow around noon. It’s kinda exciting but it’s only a level 4 typhoon. I think that makes it around “wuss wind” level. Cool now it says Kyushu is or will be getting 400-500mm or rain. That’s almost biblical! A lot of really small dogs and short ladies can drown with that level of water. Think about the small dogs!
I had my first Japanese lesson today too. Nothing too difficult today and I picked up a bit of vocabulary. And welcome back Dennis – dude you owe us a mega update about your rockstar days on your rockstar tour. I like that word, rockstar.
It seems the only people updating these days are Sunny and myself. Sunny, I’m glad that you’re updating but under the circumstances, I hope you’re doing ok and don’t let the Pacific Ocean get in the way of me talking to you. Damn the Pacific Ocean… damn it to hell I say. Oh yes, you need to put your webpage somewhere else. Angelfire has too many annoying popups!!!
Ok I’m off to vacuum and then commit xenocide in Master of Orion III. By the way, the game is FREE now on Amazon.com right now. And here I am stupidly buying it in stupid Akihabara in stupid Tokyo. It’s not the greatest game in the world but it has a lot of depth and flows much faster than previous conquer-the-galaxy games. I’m currently losing my power base to these asshole aliens called Cynoids – if you remember the Meklar, well, the Cynoids are like Meklar with a bit of flesh attached. I have about 7 heavily armed armadas heading their way right about now…
