BACK TO THE FUTURE: RIP Steve Jobs

BACK TO THE FUTURE

When I was a boy, the computer was the symbol of evil. It represented Big Government, Big Industry, Big Bureaucracy dehumanized. Superman battled it. It was the Big Brother Machine.

Weighing the Improbable

Many years ago, I was in the middle of a series of heated arguments about the wisdom of building nuclear reactors in a country with such frequent earthquakes.

Real price of nuclear power apparent at Fukushima

Before the Fukushima disaster, nuclear power appeared on the brink of a comeback. However as a direct consequence of the Japan earthquake and tsunami, nuclear reactors worldwide have been turned off and construction of nuclear plants has been put on hold.

Art, Starvation and Sex

I found myself at the Musée d'Orsay a few weeks ago when I had only a few hours of free time left in Paris. I wasn't particularly looking for it, nor did I know that it was a part of the collection there, but I chanced by a painting by Gustave Courbet titled "L'Origine du monde" or "The Origin of the World".

The Affair

We had been working for the same company for two years, though in separate locations. She's the secretary at one of our branch offices. Kaori is a little older than I generally like - 34 - but she is a surfer with the tight, lithe surfers body that goes along with that. So being the guy that I am, I always did a bit of light flirting with her whenever I was at her branch.

The New Site

So here we are, on a new incarnation of the After Hours Japan forum. This is the 2nd version of After Hours Japan, and I believe the fourth version of our community altogether. I've been a part of this Japan community for 6.5 years myself, and I'm still one of the newer folk. In Japan, it's rare to get a community like ours, and it's my goal to keep us going strong and moving into the future.

It's been an intense few days of work trying to piece this new site together, while keeping the site both alive and running, and not losing any data in the process.

Upstairs.

So I head upstairs. They are the only two up there so I know they've been at me saying who knows what. Like I wrote I know Mizuki is on my side and I am also starting to think at this time this date thing is becoming more about me and her than me and Kiwako... I sit down and told them I ordered some stuff. I am not pissed about them coming early, but the situation was and is a little awkward. I want to find out what's the deal with Kiwako and why she is constantly trying to push me around and I am having to teach her a lesson each time...

Kiwako's mix up plan is to come early and head to where she know

So, it`s been a couple of months since my last update. I have been really busy enjoying myself this Summer and I gots tons of stories to tell, but I want to finish this thing with Kiwako. The blog post before this is a post I made back in the beginning of July in the forum that I put up here. I realize how useful this blog thing is in terms of remembering specific situations I've been in and how I've dealt with them.

"Kiwako" came riding in on her high horse with her first knight

"Kiwako" came riding in on her high horse with her first knight about 10 minutes late... She told me she was going to bring a friend in the morning before our planned get-together. That was fine with me. I knew that she had a class that day and that was probably the reason she was a bit late, so I just sent her a mail to just meet me at the restaurant. They both were smoking hot. Seriously hot college students.

and the H flying around both of us,

This is just a quick add on..., something I am gonna put into this blog so I don`t forget. Last night I kinda fell into a date with a friend I`ve had for the past couple years. She used to be a flight attendant but now she works for the city I live in. Her husband works overseas.

:arrow:

The original plan was that three of us go out and get something to eat and drink, but the other girl couldn`t make it so instead of going out with two attractive girls it ended up being only one.
