I came to the DC site via the Tokyo Dance Trooper YouTube page. I've stuck around because of all the interesting articles on life in Japan. I browse some of the other sections, but I am mainly interested in the life articles and the photo walks. What...
well they look identical on the side showing as the ones in last year's post. so was assuming still double sided. also assuming double sided for the alternate language reason.
After my day job, I am working part time for a guy as a programmer. I typically do it at home, after I put my daughter to bed. Some Saturday mornings I'll go down to a Panera bread or Starbucks to get a few hours in without my daughter distracting me...
right now, i could use the stop time ability to regain sleep lost to the last 18 months since my daughter was born. then I will need it again in a few months to keep up on the sleep when our second daughter is born :) after getting rested, i'd make u...
Really need to work on my Japanese more, or I'll never be qualified for positions like this. That and if I don't my daughters will be able to talk about me behind my back with their mother! :)
I'll admit I've been lazy about donating blood. When I worked for a major corporation, they came to the office 3 or 4 times a year and I donated each time. Since I went to work for a smaller company I have not went out of my way to go to a donation o...
While visiting Kobe to see my brother in law in March, he rented a mini van one day to take everyone around to a few places. The rental had a full nav unit, not quite that nice, but much better than the units in the States. It was linked to cameras a...
Man I wish I had a way to Hulu the Japanese sub'd versions of Prison Break and a couple other shows for my wife. She does not enjoy them nearly as much as she used to. She can not quite keep up with the English at full TV speed.
Living in the middle of the U.S (near Saint Louis, Missouri) where there is nothing but open land really means nothing is ever in walking distance. My wife and I used to walk to the store occasionally, but that stopped after her first pregnancy got t...

i started eating breakfast regularly 8 years ago when I decided to do something about weighing 350 pounds. Structured diet and exercise, all that stuff the doctors tell us to do. :) I now weigh 200 pounds and eat breakfast every morning with my wife...
image ID#26554 and various other shots. My wife really hated it when I called her parasol an umbrella. She went on to explain that it is meant to block the sun and not rain. Of course after we moved to the US, she never uses it because "Only old peo...

I know this is an old post, but I felt moved to commenton the thermometer since no one seemed to understand what it was. It is a Basal Thermometer. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medical_thermometer#Basal_thermometer http://www.babyhopes.com/articles/t...
I subscribe to TV Japan (http://www.tvjapan.net) on AT&T's Uverse, but the only thing they carry live is the news. The rest of the programmng is generally good, but Danny's question was live, and the news is all that is live.
The YouTube videos are layering on top of the catfish menu. everything else seems to layer underneath it appropriately. Example http://www.dannychoo.com/adp/eng/1674/A+Week+in+Tokyo+35.html Win XP SP3 using FF 3.0.7
linked below are the Hina dolls sent by my in-laws for my Daughter. We put them up about 1 month ago, and then took them down on March 3rd. You have to take them down right away or your daughter will not get married until later in life or something l...
