I thought a French title was appropriate given that, somehow, our current President has inexplicably managed to alienate all of our allies. As much as I’d like to write this post in French, my level is only up to a 6th grader and that simply won’t do for a post about politics. Let’s begin with…… Continue reading Le politique aujourd’hui

The Trump Win and My Thoughts
It is November 8th, 2024. We just had perhaps one of the most important elections in American history and the majority of Americans have overwhelmingly chosen a path that will change the country into something I cannot recognize. The country I knew, one that rightly or wrongly, we Americans considered a force for good in…… Continue reading The Trump Win and My Thoughts

It is 4:55 AM on Saturday, September 23rd 2023. This is not my usual time to write but it is when I usually wake up. Although I wake up it has been rare to actually get up out of bed.

Trip to Ohio
My family returned to Japan this summer to visit Baba. It was long overdue since we couldn’t go last year due to COVID, and me, being the only one who doesn’t hold a passport am not allowed in this year either. That means I’m a free man all summer. It suddenly dawned on me a…… Continue reading Trip to Ohio
Journal Entry – 5.15.2021
It is 9:16 AM on Saturday morning May 15th, 2021. Time is a blur during this pandemic and a month slips by as quickly as a week. It is another day inside the house, but for me I am never short of amusements or activities. I have my books and have read the old Time…… Continue reading Journal Entry – 5.15.2021
