That's easy, it was thinking I could successfully blog on this phone. Yes people do, but I'm me and technology has a severe allergic reaction when it nears!! So after losing tonight's first blog to the cyber Gods this will be shorter.

Today started 20 hours ago, a taxi driver's last fare to the first Tokyo flight of the day. Chuck and Chie met me and my Okinawan donations and whisked us off to Costco. After making a considerable dent in their dog and cat supplies
