I was recently asked when I was going to use Blogspot to post something. I thought I had but, since you asked, here goes. It is early Saturday a.m. and I am up, and have been up most of the night due to some antibiotic ear drops for my right ear. The sloshing of the fluid in my right ear keeps waking me up. I decided to get up about 45 mins ago and take a look at the "spot". I noted Dave and Adina's blog and made my comment. I figure if I can get 4-5 nipponese over here for a few days at 25000 yen/night...I can quit work and start a nippon bed and breakfast.

I'd love to post you some photos but find ofoto easier to manipulate without going to "insert to URL in place of bladeebladeebla......"?????????? Could it be easier to just insert a photo directly in to the posting and forget about the multiple keystr0kes required to get a simple photo online?

I have the same problem with the 350Zforum.com site. I still don't know how they post photos.

We are going to Ron and Teri's (sp) this morning as soon as they call, to help with their move-in. Ron sounded a little disappointed with the way his real estate agent is handling the acquistion of their new home..and the condition the home was left in by the previous owners. We had the same problem with our previous owners who took lock, stock and barrel when they left the home.

Well, I settled for 4500 measly (sp) dollars from Farmer's Insurance. That is all they would give up toward my diminished value. Very very short of the 20000 that I calculated in my loss to the Z accident caused by one of their clients. In any case, it bought us a new BBQ stainless steel which I have been eyeing for some time. It didn't cost 4500 by the way. There is a really nice one for tailgating and just plain family tripping at www.freedomgrill.com. I would like to have that for future church, work and family events. Nice.

I extracted a tooth for Jason Paoli, live-in at Bennett's home, two nights ago. Bennett's DDS invited me to come to her office to do the deed. It was really nice to see an active practice and how non-institutionalized it was; more like a home. It was an easily delivery/shuck and of course, I thought of having my own business again. There is nothing quite like owning your own business......as long as it goes well. You just have to go about it differently from my last misadventure.

For those of you who may be wondering, yes, I am voting for BUSH/CHENEY in the upcoming. I will comment no futher on political issues concerning Hanoi John and the ambulance chasing companion of his. Okay, enough.

Upcoming events in our local family: Aug is education week at BYU; Sept-Oct is AAOMS meeting in San Francisco; November is Thanksgiving in Cleveland; December is December-no plans except home; January is visit from Japan Stinchy's and Kim back to school; February is a week in the Caribbean; March is home; April is BYU graduation; May is San Diego graduation; June is home; July is home; August is Stinchy/Schick reunion in Florida and the Japan Stinchy's return home...and I stop there. There may have been things left out and things to be added later, but remember, this is 3:49 am. Give me a break. Here is the photo I promised:
