Hi. I wanted to give you guys an update.
Akiko is getting much busier at work now. Shai caught a cold this week and is
pretty much inside the last couple days.
Now much cooler in Japan. I spent the last couple weeks putting in plywood
flooring in preparation for the finished flooring. Was able to finish the entry,
kitchen, and bedroom. Planned on pulling off the paneling in the bedroom and
paint only to discover there is nothing behind the paneling. Yup, an exterior
wall, air space and paper thin paneling. Now need to spend the next couple weeks
redoing the walls in the bedroom. Possible could chat early on Sunday our time
like 8 am which would be around 4pm the day before your time.
Been watching football almost every night. Many good games this year but the
bills really suck.
Anyway, send email when you can.

Hi. We were really happy to chat with you guys today. Thanks again for the stuff
and especially the camera. After chat we played around with it and found we can
do all kinds of crazy effects. Shai looked really funny. Will show you next
time.
We realize the plan of coming to Japan is in the talking stages but we were
pretty excited to even think about the possibility. You can take a look at the
English Global Group school site. With everything set up now we plan to begin
marketing for new students.
Wanted to talk to you about the SD site and completely forgot. Now the site is
being spammed like crazy. These auto spam bots found the site. Akiko is going to
install a new script which is the same as the United Nations site. This script
is open source and free but tons of files. When finished there should be a
really good event calendar and classifieds. Individual groups will be able to
make there own profiles to promote their missions in detail. I want to set u p
your advertising when this is all finished. Would be nice for you to make a
promotional video. Some stuff to think about.
Anyway chat in a few weeks. Send email when you can.
Howie, Akiko. |

Hi. I want to tell you Happy Thanksgiving. Spent a quiet day at home with Akiko
and Shai and ate the closest thing we could find to a traditional meal. I am
thinking about you all the time and wondering if we can chat anytime soon. I
love you and miss you very much. Send email when you can.

27, 2010 - Thanksgiving Party. Another theme party. This time to celebrate Thanksgiving in
Japan which was overall pretty funny. Everyone enjoyed
themselves despite the numerous food substitutes used to
make as close to a traditional Thanksgiving meal as
possible. Kinda funny but the turkey tasted like
chicken....hmmmm. |
