So here I am, updating again. I'm trying to get back to doing this like we used to, in the hopes that it will whip you bums into doing it more. I do understand that things aren't always exciting, and I certainly understand not having time to do it. But hey, you can't blame a guy for being hopeful.
So the deal is, I missed so much school being freakin sick earlier that I now can't take the one big test that decides my whole grade for this term. Which of course means.. well.. I don't fail, exactly, but I don't pass go or collect my 200 damn dollars. On the bright side, the next term doesn't start until April, so I've got like a month of free time in Japan, and you can bet your ass I'm going to live it up like mad.
Let's see... in other news, right as I write this, a good friend of mine is talking about breaking off her marriage because she found pornography on her husband's computer. Generally, I would slap her in the face for that kind of nonsense, but he DID promise. I imagine she didn't give him a whole lot of choice, but he needed to stand up for his right to look at other men have nasty ass-sex with other women. There's nothing wrong with pornography, as far as I'm concerned. It's certainly a hell of a lot better than running out and cheating on your wife. Pardon me while I climb onto my soap box for a minute.

You women, those of you with problems with pornography... why? Don't give me anything about it being degrading to women. Any man who thinks he's going to find a woman like the ones in porno isn't going to last very long in the gene pool. PA linked something about a group of guys at Harvard who made a 9-foot phallus out of snow. That just seems like a pretty funny joke to me... ivy league college, 9-foot snow wang... but why did a couple of women knock it down? Why, because it was obviously MEANT as a threat to women. I thought that page was a satire, but no, it's the actual Harvard school paper. I mean come on! Listing the Washington Monument and missiles as symbols of male sexuality? I might, MIGHT concede an obelisk as phallic, but a missle? They're built to be aerodynamic and accurate, not to look like wangs of mass destruction. Please. Bah! Bah I say, and bah once again. I will never understand women. I thought they were supposed to mature faster, not get hung up on seeing everything remotely oblong as a symbol of penis power.
