That was definitely the strongest display of it that I've ever seen.

We have not. Not yet, anyway.

A friend who did speaks highly of doing so.

Hmm.

I guess it's my turn today, Sir. I've read this a few times, yet still can't quite get what you mean to say.

Could have gone for WHIP. But this works fine.

USD 21 million a year to be essentially average at one’s job is a pretty good gig if you can get it.

Finding someone else whose particular quirks matches your own, and who is equally enchanted by yours, that is as good as it gets.

And better than my brother’s version of “Dave, you gotta smell my ass I got a girl in my room but we had Mexican earlier.”

Those quirks do not match.

At least you got a story out of it.

(My brother fell once, skateboarding downhill at high speed. Had a seizure. Entirely lost his sense of smell. This was decades ago. It has never come back. Not knowing if your farts stink something awful or not is a curse.)

Giving one’s regards to Nantai-San on a brisk Saturday in March.

Remembering peccadillos is sort of the last remaining saving grace with this new human experiment in communication.

As a team on the playoff bubble, in what was expected to be the first year of a rebuild, the Islanders have surprised many by playing above expectations. This does, however, put them in the difficult spot of either sticking with the long-term plan or buying in with this unexpected success.

My sympathies.

I have somehow managed to so far avoid any allergies, but my wife got hit hard with it this week. As happens every spring.

In fact, I thought of you when including that kitchen photo.

Nothing in particular at all.

It’s a pleasant platform but a relatively quiet one, and a bit of humor between friends in acknowledging that is perfectly fine.

Because some days you desire to breathe colder air.

Oku-Nikko. The first Saturday in March.

BlueSky allows for conversations every three months or so. I hear it’s an astrological thing but I don’t put too much stock into that.

Ha.

I was telling Mr. Beanpod the same thing earlier this morning.

The Islanders traded for St. Louis Blues captain Brayden Schenn. He is a respected veteran but production has slipped and fans are skeptical about the potential impact and draft cost in acquiring him.

Hope that helps.

😉

Edit: the news

“American Tune” was a critique of things that ail America.

Joking that it does not hold up, I mean to say it has risen above criticism. A healed nation.

I’m not sure if you have been watching the new much recently, but, you know.

I would like to report Mating Season.

(Sorry, Patrick, my sarcasm doesn’t come through well. It holds up wonderfully.)

And, yes.

Oh, look, it’s American Tune.

That didn’t hold up at all. 🤦‍♂️

You just changed my morning train listening.

I knew exactly what you was talking about here.

The hockey? Bummer about the score.

Oh. I appreciate that.

I hadn’t even realized this microphone was working.

The exterior to a home in Kagoshima. It seems a pleasant spot to contemplate the fact that you will never change the world, but at least you can eat some watermelon and corn on a pleasant summer evening.

A wide perspective of a home in Kagoshima. It seems a pleasant spot to contemplate the fact despite the great loneliness that is the world, you can at least have something cold to drink and listen to birds sing. Perhaps, one year, your favorite sports teams will make you happy.

The entrance to a home in Kagoshima. It seems a pleasant spot to listen to guests remark that you erred in putting a heater so close to the entrance, that you are a great fool for letting that warmth out, because such commentary is of the sort that people find endearing, that it brings people together and strengthens the bonds between humanity, and you can eat hotpot with loved ones and smile at each other.

The tatami room in a home in Kagoshima. It seems a pleasant spot to look up at the ceiling and dwell on man's inhumanity to his fellow man and drink Mugi-cha on a spring afternoon.

Grand Sponsors during the “Tiger Dramas.”

Or so I thought.

The sounds over Koenji Station.

The first morning in March.

Drums calling you out somewhere.

*Having Yuki Onna tattoos. Getting them, not so much.

Fond of both Yuki Onna tales and tattoos.
