Magic Johnson says he and Isiah Thomas,"haven't talked. If that day comes, then we'll sit down and talk. But if that day doesn't come, then it doesn't come. We've both got a lot to do. I got a lot to do with my business and he has a lot to do to get his college coaching career off the ground. I wish him well. It's too bad that it has to come to this, but sometimes that's what happens in life."
Go forth and fill your libraries with media.
Seriously, thanks to everyone for being so amazing and patient. You are the reason I love Vox.
I was just told that the Amazon Conduit will be fixed by tomorrow. I will post here as soon as I get word that it's back up and running.
I know this has been frustrating and I am sorry there wasn't more I could do to make it less so. I really appreciate your patience though.
Cheers,
Bad news. As many of you have probably noticed, the Amazon Conduit was not fixed in the last week's release. Unfortunately, there was an undetected bug that is preventing the conduit from working.
We are working on this bug fix and hope to have the Conduit back up and running this week.
I will keep you posted.
Thank you for being so patient.

Biked out to Kawasaki to meet up with Fumiaki and watch the Dark Knight in Imax. It's been almost thirty years since I crossed the Tamagawa on a bicycle, but the ride was great. Here's a shot of Tokyo from the Kanagawa (Kawasaki) side. In front of all the baseball diamonds are a row of blue tarp housing set up by the homeless. Hope there are no floods this year.

This was a couple weeks ago, but Griffey Jr. hit one out of the park at his first at bat that I've seen him take in Seattle in 12 years. Fun stuff, happy stuff.
12年ぶりにシアトルのユニフォームで見たケン・グリフィーJr.。初打席でホームラン。
I’ve finally (for myself) took some time off at work to take a trip to the west coast to go to Safeco and AT+T and to of course visit friends and family. Seattle is beautiful as usual, but I really was not looking forward to the flight over.
The aisle seat was close to the back of the plane, which mean the bathroom was close so standing up to get some walking and stretching in would not be a problem. Seated at the back right of the plane was a young Japanese girl and an elder American guy. They were having a conversation in English and because they were seated pretty close I heard about half the conversation. It seemed the guy was kinda of weird and overly friendly, but I didn’t think much of it. Especially since she was drinking the drinks he was giving her (in hindsight I realize she was worried about being impolite and didn’t know how to say no).
That is until, I saw that the girl was trying to get him off of her and he was trying to smooch her. She got out of the seat somehow and I told the FA that there was something weird going on in that seat. The FA had already noticed and had already prepared for the girl (who I later found out was under age) to move up to the front of the plane without returning to her seat. They asked for my personal info for their report. How swiftly they moved on this after they saw something happening (and without causing a fuss) and the thank you speech I got from them makes me wonder what kind of incidents they see on the plane.
近非常に気にし始めた、「大丈夫」の使い方。使い方によっては「あなたこそ大丈夫？」って言われることに。最近はとりあえず「大丈夫」以外の言葉を使うようにしている。
久しぶりの長期有給でアメリカに来ています。飛行機が嫌いだけど、今回はそんなのを忘れるようなフライト。後ろの方に座っていたけど、さらに後ろの席でアメリカのおじさんが日本人の女性と異様に仲良くしている。きもいおじさんだなと思っていたけど、会話も続いていたから特に気にしていなかった。トイレに行く時にパッと目に入っていたのが、いやがっている彼女の腕を握っていてキスをしようとするおじさん。フライトアテンダントに伝えて彼女も席替え出来るように。その状況から逃げた彼女に思わずかけた最初の一言、「大丈夫？」。駄目だ、まだまだ未熟だ。。。
The Amazon Conduit will be working again on October 15, 2009. Thank you to everyone for your patience.
Have a great weekend,
daisy, Team Vox
In my last Team Vox post, I let you know that we're aware that the Amazon conduit is broken and that we're working to fix it. Many of you want to know when it's going to be fixed and I'm so sorry I haven't gotten back to you about that sooner.
Unfortunately, I don't have an exact date to give you, but rest assured, the Amazon conduit will be fixed in the coming weeks.
In the meantime, I'm about to finish my latest book and I could use a few suggestions as to what to read next, so... if you don't mind, let me know in the comments what's on your nightstand and/or what book you think I absolutely must read next.
Thanks! :)
