The Dubai killing, who knows but the British Home Office is pretty cheesed off about the use of “fake” British passports. » Posted By Kalima On February 25, 2010 @ 6:00 am Good morning javaz. Maybe we should take a vote here and just see how many people have a JR or junk drawers then we wouldn’t feel so bad. I even keep odd socks hoping to find the mates one day. We too have a pile of keys, screws and other odd things in one drawer. I have a strange feeling that at least two of the keys are to our last apartment in London, many moons ago. » Posted By Kalima On February 25, 2010 @ 5:45 am Thanks for the link Khirad, that’s quite a story. Yes, there was no love lost between Brown and Blair in the last few years together but I find Brown about as boring as watching paint dry. The man is seriously lacking in “get up and go.” Poor Gordon, if only he would smile a bit more. π » Posted By Kalima On February 25, 2010 @ 4:58 am I’m sure that you are already out of the door but just wanted to say that I have more than just a couple of junk drawers. I tend to keep the oddest things, parts of this, parts of that. In the meantime whatever was so important about keeping it, fades from my mind and I have to throw out the single red shoelace, the white plastic top with no home or bottle and the recipes from 20 years ago that seemed so easy but were never tried. Why do we hoard stuff and make small spaces even smaller. I thought that I had been a sleek cat in a past life because of the colour of my eyes, I now think that I must have just been a plain old squirrel. π » Posted By Kalima On February 25, 2010 @ 4:52 am Good morning boomer, getting ready for work I suppose. Is it still snowing? You can’t imagine what a relief it is to know that both you and Q have a JR, I’ve felt so lonely trying to clear mine out since January. Having a short break before I do battle again, the room hardly gets any sun and the furry ones get in the way. I’ll let you know if I need those wings. π I hope you have a good day and take care. » Posted By Kalima On February 25, 2010 @ 3:42 am Good morning to you all.

Didn’t these guys do a few others too? » Posted By Kalima On February 24, 2010 @ 4:17 am Morning boomer, hang in there. Spring is just around the corner. π » Posted By Kalima On February 24, 2010 @ 4:08 am Well there you go, you’ve had a morning chuckle already. I used to read newspapers upside down too. They do look sort of fired up don’t they, “Rambo” Sikhs, funny. » Posted By Kalima On February 24, 2010 @ 4:04 am Good morning to everyone, 15C here today and maybe tomorrow too.

I too loved the picture of the woman, horse and field in Poland and was transported to my childhood for a few seconds. Yes the picture of the young man was horrific but it is necessary to see exactly what is happening to others around the globe to help us appreciate what we have rather than what we sometimes don’t have. I love animals and I love cats big and small, the lion cub melted my heart. » Posted By Kalima On February 23, 2010 @ 2:26 am Good morning everyone, greetings from my Tokyo evening. It was so mild here today, that I was almost tempted to change my layered look for something less restricting. Then I remembered that this is how I catch colds every year that last for months and decided to behave for another few months.

Take care and be safe. » Posted By Kalima On February 19, 2010 @ 6:02 am The problem is that they still claim dibs on Taiwan, even when the majority of citizens want to break with the mainland. Whether they have a vote on the UN SC or not, they still oppose any actions that would be bad for business and not for the good or bad of a situation. If they can get away with it long enough, maybe sooner than later, Iran will have their first nuclear weapon and the world will have another N. Korea type situation to deal with. » Posted By Kalima On February 19, 2010 @ 5:08 am They feel pretty much the same about Taiwan and their independence from the mainland. If they could take care of all of their own citizens first, it might be better for their image. Who knows how they really think, they are not really much use in the region after their stunted efforts to mediate in the 6 party talks with N. Korea and they are a vote of NO within the UN Security Council. » Posted By Kalima On February 19, 2010 @ 4:35 am Good morning to you all. China’s consistent anger whenever the Dalai Lama visits the U.S. is beginning to fray my nerves. The idea that this gentle, unassuming man dressed in his unadorned robe, promoting world peace and understanding is seen as such a threat to a country with a population of over 1 billion 300 million Chinese is so baffling to me and shows China’s weakness rather than it’s projected strength. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/8523319.stm Continuing from the link I posted yesterday about the possible involvement of Mossad in the murder of a Hamas commander in Dubai, Interpol has released an arrest warrant. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/middle_east/8523588.stm 24 Hours in Pictures. http://www.guardian.co.uk/news/gallery/2010/feb/18/1 » Posted By Kalima On February 19, 2010 @ 2:23 am Good morning javaz, missed you, sorry had to edit my good night comment and will say good night again.

Following the murder in January of a Hamas commander in Dubai, the British Home Office is looking into the fact that 6 of the suspected killers were Israeli- British with U.K. passports. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/middle_east/8521246.stm 24 Hours in Pictures. http://www.guardian.co.uk/news/gallery/2010/feb/17/1 I love dolphins and found these beautiful pictures of them playing in the surf. http://www.guardian.co.uk/environment/gallery/2010/feb/17/wildlife-southafrica This is for KQ who had to wait for his pizza for 5 hours the other week due to snow.

There is a lot of snow all over Japan, even in the south this year but not in Tokyo. My friend who lives about 2 hours from here, called to say that she can’t make it to Tokyo, she’s snowed in. Well good night Khirad and anyone else who might pop in here later. Have had a rather busy day and sleep sounds awfully good to me right now. Have good day, take care and be safe. Good night from Old Edo and the Krazy Kats. » Posted By Kalima On February 16, 2010 @ 5:53 am I wrote reply and suddenly found myself logged out, reply gone to “word heaven.” Will try again on my computer in a minute, my IPod sometimes behaves like a 3 year old. We have snow in Tokyo most years actually but we did have one day last week reaching 21C and that was very weird. Better not mention it to Lush, Becky or the Faux Snooze clowns, they might have panic attacks. » Posted By Kalima On February 16, 2010 @ 5:19 am Good morning everyone, greetings from a cold, wet Tokyo night, with hints of snow later. 24 Hours in Pictures. http://www.guardian.co.uk/news/gallery/2010/feb/15/1 Top Taliban military commander, captured in Pakistan raid. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/south_asia/8517375.stm Iran hits back at Clinton “dictatorship” warning. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/middle_east/8517723.stm » Posted By Kalima On February 16, 2010 @ 2:57 am Ok, I think I had better try to sleep, have an appointment tomorrow. Btw, my Planet mugs came this morning, all the way to Tokyo, all in one piece. Why didn’t anyone warn me about the 15oz sized mugs, I’ll need a small crane to get a full one higher than my elbow. Actually they are great! Good night from Tokyo. Take care and be safe. » Posted By Kalima On February 15, 2010 @ 6:17 am π » Posted By Kalima On February 15, 2010 @ 6:11 am Morning Cher, I guess the guys will just have to wear them on both feet or sell them by joining up over at HP, there is always supply and demand for old, smelly socks over there. » Posted By Kalima On February 15, 2010 @ 5:51 am LOL, I can’t count the times that this has happened to me in the past, getting disconnected from my wireless and she was using a Mac too. π³ » Posted By Kalima On February 15, 2010 @ 4:41 amComments Posted By Kalima
So sorry everyone, I had forgotten to include the link for the pictures. π³

Got to go, have a good day and I’ll catch you later. Good night.
