My wife scored some new office furniture at a warehouse sale. The deals where unbelievable so you can guess what I did all weekend.

I had to chuckle when I read this. While at my wife's families home in Okinawa last week I noticed that every adult above the age of 13 had a cell phone. I kinda laughed as we went through the process of me updating my Japanese Cell phone with all of their numbers. When a part-time visitor to Japan has
