Well it was a rough weekend. Friday morning I woke up with a sinus headache and the general onset of a headcold. Throughout the day I managed to load up on echinacea, zinc and some cold/vitamin drinks and managed to eliminate the general grogginess.
Saturday morning, up bright and early with a little drainage but feeling good. Off to the station to go to work. (It’s about a 10 minute bike ride from my apartment to the station I transfer at.) I usually take a thoroughfare that isn’t a side road, but is by no means a busy road. Today was no different. At 0830 in the morning on saturday, there are not so many people up in the part of tokyo I live… with that in mind, traffic is almost non-existent. I realized that I am now not the only person to know this.
Coming down a small hill, I had a yellow light, on the verge of green. I normally slow down a tad bit in these cases just to make sure that there are no cyclers or people wanting to do the ole St. Louis stop or rush the red. Today, however, I decided it was early and no need to do it.
Another online comic with a lot potential.. Freak Angel..
Growing up, one of my favorite “movie” heroes was Indiana Jones. From Raiders to the Temple of Doom and even the Grail..
From fighting nazis to fighting of mystical hindi shamans that could pull your heart out of your chest, he always managed to survive.. and in style. Learning to use a bullwhip in texas, the only thing I ever thought of was using it to swing from tree branch to tree branch (that never seems to quite work out.. damn texas mesquite…)
Anyways, check out the trailer at the official site. Looks good! Cannot wait till the May 22nd! IJ4:Kingdom of the Crystal Skull.

As the title says.. Alfred McCoy has a new book out relating to the history of the CIAs research and usage of torture and their push to maintain that these are not illegal. The youtube video of his speech is quite interesting.
