To make matters worse, any time I look at someone's Inbox, there are thousands of messages in there. THOUSANDS! I should give email classes.

If I ever get to see my employer's email server in Tokyo, I'm going to go 'Office Space' on it. Nobody freakin' replies in less than 9 days!

@glen_malley You, sir, may be the unluckiest man alive. How many mirrors did you break as a child?

@glen_malley That happened to me at my last job after I went on my first vacation in 4 years. Came back and my stuff was in some dark corner

@William_Zhu What the deuce? You followed Future Shop before me? I don't know whether to be offended or impressed by your savings prowess :P

New blog post: Why I Will Not Call Myself a Teacher http://www.j2fi.net/2010/03/01/why-i-will-not-call-myself-a-teacher/

Just put the finishing touches on another blog post: "Why I Won't Call Myself a Teacher". 1,000 words exactly. It'll be out in 15 minutes :)

@satoshi213 I am kidding, of course. Why pollute a river when you can sell a perfectly good bike for 5000円 and pick up another the next day?

@satoshi213 Why not just go down to the train station and take one from there? I do that all the time and ditch them in the river nearby :)

I need to find a way to bridge the gap between the incredibly open social media suites, and the incredibly closed corporate requirements ...

It's depressing to look at social media technologies and know that my employer will abhor it like the plague simply because it's *too* open.

Ever since installing Win7 on the Mrs' notebook, she's been addicted to mahjong and chess. Finally, some quiet in the house! :P

Did people really wear scarfs with shorts during the Showa period, or is サザエさん lying to us?

Hmm ... 30 seconds after Haiti's quake, everyone was sending money and RTing. Haven't heard squat for Chile, though ...

@nnatta That said, if my daughter turns out like まるこ, she's goin' right back where she came from ...

@nnatta そうですか？　まるこちゃんはかわいいですよ ... :P

The mother-in-law is laughing at me because I'm watching ちびまるこちゃん ... I can't be the only grown man that enjoys this show, can I? :o

@shinpuren Could be worse ... she could be speaking to you in tongues ...

@markmatsusaka @shinpuren @jamesinjapan Which is why I won't go drinking to the wee hours of the morning. My Mrs. would do the same :/

@Claytoniantomb That's it? That's all your boxes? So easy!!! :P

Wow ... my parents finally "friended" me on Facebook. It only took a few weeks. Should I be insulted, or indifferent? :P

New blog post: Would You Go to This Strip Club? http://www.j2fi.net/2010/02/28/killer-strip-club/

@shinpuren Sounds like a fun night. Hope nobody has any long-lasting effects ... :P

Hmm ... need to link bit.ly to Alex King's Twitter Tools plugin ... I really don't want to see a full URL whenever I post a new article -_-

@markmatsusaka That sounds dangerously healthy ... :o
