Sorry it's been so long
I'd like to apologize to my regular readers for not updating at all in the past couple of months.
I'd like to believe that I have regular readers.
And, while I'm at it, I'd like to have a pony.

I'm watching NHK's news special looking back on 9/11 and the events of the past five years. I'm not following all of the spoken Japanese, but they keep showing clips of Bush speeches ("we ar winnin' th' war on terror") and then jump-cutting to scenes from Iraq (soldiers caught by surprise by an IED, soldiers crawling from twisted wreckage, etc.)
Actually, I'm pretty sure they're trying to be even-handed with all this, but being even-handed seems to include reporting and commenting on the president's falling approval ratings, and the bogging down of the Iraq war.
Kind of a far cry from that ABC "Road to 9/11" thing, eh?
Oh, one more thing:

Well, you can have a pony or regular readers, but you can't have both ;)
Speaking of ponies, how are the nihonjin taking the new U.S. law that criminalizes the transport of horses for slaughter, effectively shutting down the three horse-slaughter houses that supply Japan with 80% of its basashi?
Hope life is smiling on you, don't take any crap from those eikaiwa kids.

I'd like a pony too.

You don't want a pony, not unless you are a 6 year old girl.
they're far too much hassle!
