Answering the phone in a foreign language is the greatest thing...the number of telemarketers I have had hang up on me is astronomical...that awkward pause and then the click...then laughter on my part....GOOD TIMES! GOOD TIMES!!

I keep thinking I'm so glad I moved out of the South to the Northwest because of the weather in the NW is so much easier to deal with...then there come days where I start flashing back to living back in the South! Only now I don't have central AC and my friggin windows open up vertically!! We have 6 fans in my house two of which are industrial grade...

Just out of curiousity...did the bags of ice last long? Cause I tried some similar with ice in a pot and the ice melted within 10 minutes...

WOW! Congrats to Kobayashi!! I figured it had to happen at some point!! Dinosaurs (the TV show)...now that takes me back! I use to love that show growing up! What does that say about my childhood...!?!....Loving the fan art section! If only I had some talent...

STUPID QUESTION OF THE DAY: Did someone plant the fungus in Nara or did some of the spores travel that far?!

First, let me say that that was the most awesome video I have yet to see! Thanks to you, Koichi, I'm ending my late night on a VERY high note!

Secondly, oh my, as a Southern girl, who lived in three of the Southern states mentioned (GA, SC, and AL) with yearly trips to FL, now living in the Starbucks capital (WA), I have to say that makes so much sense...

I'm sure you have more vital things you could be doing, Koichi, but thank you so much for this post! It really put a smile on my face! I have to show this to some friends now...

Definitely a good way to describe the season...One can hold out hope that the firings will have a positive effect...only time will tell...keeping my fingers crossed though...

Re: YouTube Always Featuring my Worst Vids

DeeLeigh — Sat, 21 Jun 2008 23:17:06 -0000

Like most that video was also my first Koichi video! So while it maybe not be your favorite for whatever reason, it has a special place in our (or rather MY...I can't speak for others) heart(s). And since I am neither technically nor linguistically fluent I cannot truly critique that video, but I have to say that if it really is the worst thing you have ever put out there then there is a lot to look forward to!

I just finished reading Second Bakery Attack. I have to say I really enjoyed the story...but I have SO many questions...and I feel like I have to fully interrogate the next man who comes into my life...but that aside...I REALLY like the story! So I will be looking for more of his work! Thank you for introducing me to a 'new' author!!

Re: After Dark

DeeLeigh — Thu, 19 Jun 2008 03:04:12 -0000

Can I ask you question?!? On a scale of one to ten, how much would you recommend this book? I'm always looking for new and interesting books!D

Re: Oops. Time to Start Treating this More like a Personal Blog

DeeLeigh — Thu, 19 Jun 2008 02:52:56 -0000

Personally, it depends on the design and fit. But I like clothes and shoes and accessories and such...So yeah...

Good luck on the job front! I'm not the only jobless person out there...YEA!

It's nice to know that some people still hold out hope for the Mariners...WHY IS IT THAT EVERY STATE I LIVE IN THE SPORT TEAMS SUCK...at least when I live in the state...

I digress...Someone put A LOT of work into training that incredibly cute dog! And I agree, I don't understand why people baby talk dogs....or babies...they are probably smarter than the people talking to them...BUT THAT'S JUST MY OPINION!!

Re: Tofugu’s in a book!

DeeLeigh — Wed, 11 Jun 2008 14:39:17 -0000

Congrats! You are well on your way to becoming an internet superstar! I can see it now...all the little kids (and big kids too) getting their hands on the book and saying "I wanna be just like Koichi when I grow up!) Again congratulations!

Re: Would You rather Eat a Cat, or a Dog?

DeeLeigh — Sun, 08 Jun 2008 22:57:24 -0000

I have to go with one of the least popular and say "Cat"...
First, I like dogs WAY more than cats. Second, there are far more uses for a dog than a cat...and really that's all there is to it...A dog would help me live longer than a cat if it ever came to that...

No one has ever heard of a killer cat (the cat from 'Pet Cemetery' NOT included), right?!?

Re: Koichi’s Five Facts…A BoxedTofu Introduction

DeeLeigh — Sun, 08 Jun 2008 22:43:55 -0000

I agree...Koichi is the ONLY person I've seen do the Panda Hat justice!

Re: Koichi’s Five Facts…A BoxedTofu Introduction

DeeLeigh — Sun, 08 Jun 2008 22:42:46 -0000

Wow...you are one interesting guy!

I will NEVER take my small head for granted again! However, it is nice to know that someone else besides me has a thing for hats! (...my hat collection is about the same size as my shoe collection...)

Re: Stare-apy for the Socially Inept

DeeLeigh — Sun, 08 Jun 2008 22:30:11 -0000

So, if you end up laughing, does that mean you are on your way to no long being socially "special"?!? Umm...I have got to say this is the most awkwardly funny thing I have ever heard of...Umm...yeah...

I have to say, though, the guy having conversations with his computer and watching TV with his computer REALLY no longer has a reason to leave the house...

Re: Happy Birthday, Tofugu!

DeeLeigh — Fri, 06 Jun 2008 04:47:56 -0000

おめでとう！
Happy Birthday! Happy Birthday! Did you get everything you wanted?!?!

Wow! I can't believe Tofugu is a year old! Where does the time go?!? It seems like yesterday that I stumbled upon this incredibly awesome site. Thank you Koichi, Erin, and Viet for all the hard work you do to make Tofugu what it is! DON'T U EVER STOP! (*Sorry...it's WAY past my bedtime...)

Re: Another Reason Not to Use Online Translators

DeeLeigh — Wed, 04 Jun 2008 16:21:46 -0000

Point well taken! I have been there many many times...but at the same time it's let me know if I was at least somewhat on the right track...I've have never taken anything I've gotten from an online translator at face value (except for that one time in Spanish class...), but it has let me know if I was way off kilter...

Re: Another Reason Not to Use Online Translators

DeeLeigh — Tue, 03 Jun 2008 23:30:54 -0000

You have to give the guys points for trying, right?!?

I think most people, if they are going to use an online translator, is they need to translate whatever the result back into the language it was originally put in...but that's just my take...

Re: Clothing Trends for Spring & Summer ‘08

DeeLeigh — Wed, 28 May 2008 16:08:01 -0000

I never would have thought of that! Thank you! When I go shopping in a few days I'll definitely give those a try...

Re: Clothing Trends for Spring & Summer ‘08

DeeLeigh — Sun, 25 May 2008 13:28:31 -0000

A lot of it is really cute, but I myself am not that fashion forward...I can't really see myself pulling off colored denim...Does black count?!
