Japan News: Japan Airlines System Corp. (JAL group) and other international carriers are set to introduce high-speed Internet connections on their flights starting next year. Passengers will be able to send and receive e-mail and browse the Web while in flight. The airlines will likely charge passengers $30-50 (3,600-6,000 yen) for use of the service. The aircraft will connect to the Internet via a satellite link. Japan Airlines plans to begin offering the service in June on routes linking Tokyo with major Western cities like London and New York, and to gradually expand the service to other routes.

Chillin'...
Tomorrow is the speech contest, so today was the last day of practice. After practicing with Kinouchi, I chilled with the office ladies in the air conditioned office. Then had practice with Yamashita, however she hasn't fully memorized the story so it was hard to fix other things. Oh well...not much can be done now. We'll all find out tomorrow.
For lunch today, I made some somen that I got from Hide's mom. Fukushima somen, I guess, is much longer than your typical somen. I devoured 2 packages with some kara-age. Yummy.
On TV right now, they're comparing which side you should stand on the escalators. In Tokyo, Gifu, & Ogaki , the "fast" lane is the right, but in Osaka, Kyoto and Maibara it's opposite. But in other places it's random. They even have lines down the middle of the escalator. Tarui is where the station where left or right is okay.
Due to the huge amounts of spam I was gettin', I decided to change my keitai mail address.
Started Catfish and Mandala today. Story about a Vietnamese-American who travels by bike from California to Vietnam. Right off the bat, it put a smile to my face as he spoke about the 3rd world squat.
Ok...what's up with the GAP commercial I just saw on TV? Missy Elliot & Madonna??? WTF!?
My favorite tv programs are starting, so I'm gonna wrap this one up. Peace!
Kaz out...
