It's March 10, 2020. What are you eating for dinner?

I´m on the Yamanote Line. If I had kept on learning Japanese I would have less trouble now trying to understand the voice in Japanese in the loudspeaker. I think she says

Harajuku station is a busy station full of Gothic Lolita´s that are…

Salsa Dancing and Community

Salsa Dancing and Community

Yesterday evening I went Salsa Dancing and discovered this is one of the most effective ways to create strong communities. It can be Salsa dancing, it can be any other dance, a simple meal but full of interesting fun conversations, it can be playing any sport or video game- If you want to create a community that works together, start with something fun!

and not trying to impose external cultural… Continue

Fourth of July on the Lake

This past weekend was the annual celebration at the lake house in Connecticut. It is amazing that the lake is still so clear and beautiful after all these years. The watershed association has done a wonderful job protecting these waters from the damaging effects of development.The wood grill was finally ready to cook on, so we didn't miss the propane tank fueled grill anymore. The food actually tasted fresher than in the past and was easy to keep fueled.Dad was very proud of the solar hybrid…See More

Future

FutureToday is 2020/1/1. It is just like yesterday. The war is still continuing. It has started since 2010. In 2010, that year was a horrible year. Almost every energy ran out.

Food was bought up xawayx at once. There were no more food supplies in any shops. The economy was all crushed down. All the…See More

public servants

The exchange works directly for state and public workers and servants. It gives them credit in exchange for the amount of public work they contribute to the community. The more constructive they are based off a base rate the more credit they recieve.
