Ah... Jyoti. Wow. SouthWEST Asia. Do yourself a favor. Send TJ & the kids away for a day. State fair or something. Light candles & relax. Once you start Jasmine, you won't want to put it down.

My sister in law took this same class and she said the book was good, but there was a book that said that created more of a hate for the culture then an enlightment, but when she took this was during the height of the war. I will post the other books if anyone is interested and will share some thoughts with ya Delvie since you have read this book.

Looking through the catalog reminded me of a weapon I only saw once on a show about obscure weapons. Maybe you know what it is called. It is almost like a yo-yo but is made of razor sharp chains that can expand outwards to something like 10-15 feet away. Any idea?

Umm... Kit Rae makes pretty pieces of metal, but to call them swords might be the fantasy.

Jidai is a reputable iaito seller. They sell iaito made by the Minosaka company in Mino. The Tensho Koshirae & the Higo Koshirae are used by many teachers. I'm not a fan of Duralim, myself. I prefer a more alluminum/zinc alloy. They are generally lighter & more practical to practice than duralim.

If anybody's interested, Earth is the little bluish dot just to the upper left of the main rings.

Nothing new this weekend to speak of. Went to seneca falls. Accidently erased the pictures while transferring them to the laptop. Oh well. Didn't go for the pics.
Tried to change my myspace song, but myspace' maintenance foiled my dastardly plans. Bidibodi Bidibu
Have a good day.

Nah. More of a BLAH week. Considering the things that went wrong are relatively minor, I'm not complaining... just noting. Beesides, I don't let the trivial get me down... I just let them accumulate to my cartoon of a life... 
Oh, & in case anybody is interested, I've changed my song. You Beerfest & Supertrooper fans will recognize it. I'd love to collect some funny crusade fan & Tucci con video & silly pics to combine into a video using that song. Oh well... Enjoy! (or be annoyed... Which ever.) we will love, biddibodi bidibu whoa... we will love, biddibodi bidibu whoa... we will love, biddibodi bidibu whoa... we will love, biddibodi bidibu whoa... we will love, biddibodi bidibu whoa... we will love, biddibodi bidibu whoa... we will love, biddibodi bidibu whoa... we will love, biddibodi bidibu whoa... we will love, biddibodi bidibu whoa... we will love, biddibodi bidibu whoa...

It just dawned on me that one of my myspace friends has a picture of himself w/ the Shi kanji on his forhead for his myspace background. Been friends for about 7 months & just noticed it. DOH.

On my way to NY & then I fly to Utah Monday.

He's an incredible artist. If you don't mind industrial/goth etc pics, you should check out his site. Some of his collaborations w/ photographers are mind blowing.

I will check him out! Love art. One weekend I am going to the historic Third Ward here in Milwaukee to check out a place that has over 250+ pieces of Asian Art (all of Asia) and the place is called Art Asia.

I guess I should specify what I mean by artist. He's a photographer/designer/model.
