    I receive a lot more spam e-mails than a few years ago. Of course, the number of such e-mails is only ten to fifteen a day but still, that’s a lot for me.

    Over the last few days though, I only got one. I was wondering if the spammer(s) is on vacation…or maybe he/she is not feeling well enough to spam. Not that I miss these e-mails but I just wonder.

    I don’t like touching places where I saw roaches walking. It’s not really because I think they drop viruses/bacteria behind; it’s rather because I don’t want to chemo-attract roach ladies with the roach pheromone stuck on my body.

    Pheromone is such an interesting idea.

    The summer here is very close to the Japanese summer: humid and hot and humid.

    I can still survive without an AC though – I could never do that in Japan. I was wondering why and I think I know why. Here, we are missing the non-stop chorus of hundreds of cicada. Their singing adds extra 10C to the temperature…

    Look!
    Don’t I look like I’m enjoying the view of a gorgeous sunset over a river outside the window? But I’m not…I’m looking at something less exciting…

    Every once in a while, most people get nasty feelings that they don’t want other people know, like jealousy. Say there are specific biological pathways and chemicals involved in causing such feelings and say, that a superb mutational capacity of some viruses allows them to interact and invade these pathways/chemicals. In other words, only the people who have these feelings get sick.

    That might annoy many people…or maybe some virus might have done it before and people just didn’t notice it.

    I have this image of roaches liking junk food more than healthy, nutritious food but am I biased?

    I’m afraid of taking one lemon from a tidely arranged lemon slope. I’m often not tall enough to pick the highest one.

    I haven’t had lemons rolling off the slope one after another yet but I’m afraid that someday, it may happen. I wonder what the punishment would be if that happens…would I get into more trouble if the product is softer and easily damaged?

    Craving for a mixture of orangina and soy milk. Yum.

    Reading soap labels can be interesting sometimes. I was reading the ingredients in my rather posh body soap today. I noticed the first ingredient “water” was followed by (aqua).

    What did the company want to tell us by (aqua)…is aqua better water?
