| While I realize it's not nice to speak ill of the dead, but I have been looking around the web, and I feel I need to say this...
Michael Jackson is not a hero or a role model. He is a child molester.

The other day a friend pointed me to this youtube video. It is a clip from "Britain's Got Talent", and features Susan Boyle singing "I Dreamed a Dream".
Sorry, but they have disabled embedding of the clip, so [click link] to watch her performance.
Honestly it is one of the most amazing, heart warming things I have seen.

| "He is Risen..He is risen indeed." Easter Greeting.
Luke 24 1 Now on the first day of the week, very early in the morning, they, and certain other women with them, came to the tomb bringing the spices which they had prepared. 2 But they found the stone rolled away from the tomb. 3 Then they went in and did not find the body of the Lord Jesus. 4 And it happened, as they were greatly perplexed about this, that behold, two men stood by them in shining garments. 5 Then, as they were afraid and bowed their faces to the earth, they said to them, “Why do you seek the living among the dead? 6 He is not here, but is risen! Remember how He spoke to you when He was still in Galilee, 7 saying, ‘The Son of Man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and the third day rise again.’”
8 And they remembered His words. 9 Then they returned from the tomb and told all these things to the eleven and to all the rest. 10 It was Mary Magdalene, Joanna, Mary the mother of James, and the other women with them, who told these things to the apostles. 11 And their words seemed to them like idle tales, and they did not believe them. 12 But Peter arose and ran to the tomb; and stooping down, he saw the linen cloths lying by themselves; and he departed, marveling to himself at what had happened.
Happy Easter everyone.

| Just because I know you all are looking to have a bit of fun in your life. I need to let you know that today (April 4) is International Pillow Fight Day!!!! Sadly however Weasel Stomping Day has yet to be officially declared.
This is the Pillow Fight Day website.
For some strange reason embedding is not allowed, so this is the link to Weird Al's Weasel Stomping Day.
Hope you all have a safe and fun pillow fight!!

Well, it has been quite a while since I have posted anything, so let me first state that I am still alive!
Actually, my company has been 'right sizing' a B.S. term to make it sound like we are doing something useful and right, when actually we are firing people...well laying people off (another B.S. term for firing.). I love all the stupid euphemisms we have to make bad things sound ok instead of being honest about it.
At any rate, I am still employed so that is a good thing.
I am visiting friends in Fukushima, somewhat north of Tokyo. It is cold now, and supposed to snow later.
Oh! Just as I was beginning to think that Japanese men weren't all a bunch of perverts, I see this in the local arcade.
That's right kids, its a silicone breast grabbing game... You will of course notice that the machine next to it has stuffed Winnie the Pooh bears and the like, so I guess kids do go by and see this.
Oh, Japan, you never cease to amuse me.
