I came to Japan in 1990 for what was supposed to be a two-year stint. Then, by some bizarre stroke of fate, I got a real life, so I'm still here. For a gaijin with an imagination and more than his share of sensitivity, these islands are a never-ending source of adventure.
I was born on a rainy day on the Oregon Coast (no surprises there) and through a rather convoluted sequence of events wound up in Japan. I'm a teacher by trade, moonlighting as a musician and composer. I also do quite a bit of writing on the side. I'm a dreamer, a thinker, a sayer, and a doer all wrapped in one deceptively mild-mannered package.

I went to the site the other day. I never liked cats, but it seems I'm slowly coming around. These Bengals are alluring.

Do you think I should try sending them their way? Nahhh...either humiliation or exploitation. Can do without...
Olivia
I never knew about that site till Don mentioned it! Maybe it was my evil twin?
Agus
His name, "Tora", means tiger in Japanese. Not very original, I know.
Selba
I can't help it! I live in a country where cuteness is a way of life!
Lrong
Why can't humans be more like the animals?
Tooners
Uh, oh...what happened??!?
Alfanan
Yes, I agree with you 236.7%!

Welcome! Wow! My first African poster! I'm glad you like my site, and I'll do my best to keep it...well...likable! Please drop by anytime!
Olivia
Oh, now you're getting cynical...
I finally broke down and looked at that site. It really is cute overload, but at least it's legitimate cuteness!
Pandabonium
Oh, man...don't even force me to imagine that!

Angele, you may be ethnic Chinese, and your country may be an island nation with a multi-ethnic culture that mainly does business with South and Southeast Asia, but Mauritius is still technically considered an "African" nation. (After all, the closest other country is Madagascar.) That's what I meant. I was talking about geography, not ancestry.
So...you're still my first African poster, and you're still welcome! :-)

I love cats. Had one back in Chicago and he was quite aggressive(thanks in part to my upbringing) but now that he lives with my grandparents they adore him and he reciprocates the love. He looks a lot more like a sack of jelly than a cat but hey, I guess my grandparents feed the poor chap like they used to feed me(by the sword:)

Greg, I know very well what that sort of grandparent is like. One can look forward to visiting them but not look forward to getting rid of the extra gut mass afterward. :-)

Moody: very good point. Did I ever tell you how much I enjoy your exquisite sense of humor!?
