22 Jul 2008 - Tuesday. Removed the four huge posts on my bed; the room is so much more open! Celebratory lunch at "Popeye's Chicken" with NaTasha, lol; she might get a permanent position! Received a free ticket from Melanie; for Christine's Muay Thai match at the Las Vegas Hilton Theatre, this Saturday! Argh, finally reset the outage-affected sprinkler timer. Only 50% treadmill with episode 7/11 (second half) of "Gokusen 3": 1.5 mi|7.0% grade|13 min|287 cal (6.92 mph). No Blade today.
21 Jul 2008 - Monday. Shipped my birthday package to Anna. More instructions from Melanie, lol. Due to Lisa cooking her steak last night, in the mood to have steak lunch at "Outback" with Tammy, lol. Only 50% treadmill with episode 7/11 (first half) of "Gokusen 3": 1.5 mi|7.0% grade|13 min|287 cal (6.92 mph). Tammy and her best friend Kathy visited to give their opinion of my neighborhood and home; definitely nice overall. But a remodeled kitchen and wood floors would look even better, lol. Sketched Blade 1 Color, Day 12!

A Week in Tokyo 20 Starting this week with a pic that I took at Kamakura last week. The young and the old.
Remember folks - don't let others drag you down by telling you "you don't have a chance" or "easier said than done" or "do what you must do - not what you want to do" - these folks are actually speaking about themselves and want you to be in the same position...
Tokyo Photo Walk 2 This time we go for walkies around the Musashikoyama area which is home to the longest indoor shopping mall in Japan.
But we are not going to walk around the mall today and instead go catch some of the cool breeze on this warm evening. While we take the walk, I thought we'd chat about life stuff.
I ended my salary man days when I left Micr...
Celebration Japan
I got bored of my armor and decided to paint it silver - how does it look?
Only jesting. This silver trooper can be seen at the 501st booth at the Star Wars Celebration Japan event being held at Makuhari Messe for the next 2 days. Today was the first day.
Unfortunately due to prior appointments made many moons ago, I could not go but Bonnie...
Asahina Mikuru Figma Mikuru goes on sale nationwide tomorrow but I has one for some reason ^^;
Not had much time to go to the balcony to take pics so took some quick snaps in the office which is the reason of the poor quality ^^;;;

Hmmm Nice Eyes 1
Was going to call this new series "Hand Full O updates" but decided that "Hmmm Nice Eyes" sounded more interesting.

And you can see a higher resolution at CNN.

The Empire rolls you.
An explanation below for folks who don't know what "Rickrolling" is - from Wikipedia
Rickrolling is a prank and Internet meme involving the music video for the 1987 Rick Astley song "Never Gonna Give You Up". The meme is a bait and switch: a person provides a Web link they claim is relevant to the topic at hand, but...
