Second Day
28Aug07Today is my second day of class. So far it’s gone much the same as yesterday, except for the fact that I’m stuck at school from 9-5:15. Classes still seem alright and I’m still waiting to see which classes I end up in tomorrow.

We then went to school where to check email before riding up Meiji Dori to Shibuya, we rode […]
Wired magazine reports that scientists believe that they will be able to create life from scratch within the next 3-10 years. I’m willing to bet all comers (to the limit of my available funds) $1000 each that they the scientists will FAIL to create life in the next 10 years. Any takers?
It’s Too Hot!
21Aug07A little ditty about how I feel.
At 95 degrees and 82% humidity, Tokyo gets two thumbs down for climate tolerability.
