Global IME is BACK!!!!
08/16/2015
Global IME is BACK!!!! (You don’t really appreciate something or someone until you lose it or him.) It took me whole 7 hours since I seriously started to try to get my Japanese Global IME back – 9:00 p.m. though 4:00 a.m. I’ve gotta tons of things to say or to bitch Microsoft out, but you don’t wanna hear, do you? I wanted to give you some advice when the same thing happen(ed) to you. I mean you are lured into downloading or upgrading to Windows 10, you don’t like it, you uninstall it, and then you lose something! When I screwed this up, I panicked… called to ask Microsoft …

Never upgrade to Windows 10!
08/03/2015
Announcement On Thursday evening, I ACCIDENTALLY upgrade my dear Windows 7 to Windows 10, prompted by Microsoft’s ad popping up way too often. This was one of my biggest mistake (I confess!). It took too long to install it. When I was aware that I could use it after a couple of hours or so, I found Windows 10’s got a millions flaws. OK. Let’s move on. I decided to UNINSTALL it. It took another couple of hours! After that, what do you guys think happened? My Global IME (Japanese) is GONE!! Since then, I have been trying so hard to get it back, but only in vain. Accordingly, …

Extra Comment on Thursday’s Blog (Japanese Food – Whale Cuisine)
07/09/2015
On an article in TIME FOR KIDS “A WHALE OF A DEBATE” – Very Biased Educational Material Last October, my 5th grader brought back this issue of TIME FOR KIDS (5-6 EDITION), which stunned me in not a good way at all. Very biased. Not suitable for an educational material. That was my first impression. I wrote about it in my Japanese blog, to which one of the very knowledgeable readers responded with so much frustration. He explained fully to me how right my first impression on this article was and how unfair whatever the author of this article wrote there was. Immediately after that, I translated his comment into English …
