I was shocked and have never heard of a tornado happening in Japan. It is odd. I suppose if they could happen in Japan, then it is possible here in Korea as well.

Congrats on hitting 20,000 this week. Are you going to ask Skinner if you can exchange your miles for a plane ticket?

Thanks for reminding me. Maybe I will do something Special for that.. If I remember to do it. (I did ask him if I could change my name from AsahinaKimi to Asahinakimiko, but he said no. Guess I am stuck with it.)
