They Got Stuff in Japanese!

Well, It has been a while since I last updated all three of you who read, but I am happy to say that my "In town" assignment came through. I am literally 15 minutes from my house and it doesn't require going through airport security to go to work.

I am going over some of the previous documentation that they have on their web portal site and it just hit me. WOW! They have docs that are in Japanese! Granted this is a Japanese company so its not like a bunch of hillbillies with Rosetta Stone and nothing better to do so that makes sense. It just surprised me when I went through and found it. It also makes me think of the King of the Hill (which the Travel Size One and I often get a laugh out of) where Hank and the gang meet Kahn for the first time. Here's how it goes:

HANK: So, are you Chinese or Japanese?
KAHN: I live in California last twenty years, but first come from Laos.
HANK: Huh?
KAHN: Laos. We Laotian.
BILL: The ocean? What ocean?
KAHN: We are Laotian. From Laos, stupid! It's a landlocked country in Southeast Asia. It's between Vietnam and Thailand, okay? Population 4.7 million.
HANK: So, are you Chinese or Japanese?

Rack'em,
The Traveler

P.S. I sure do love Chinese food. ;)
