All over Asia parents
tell their children to
stop complaining and finish
their trigonometry because
there are millions of
American kids going to bed
with no math at all.

The man behind the curtain
- Damien
- I like words, images, graphic design, well-turned phrases, doodling, humor and profundity. These are found in every quarter and I'm always on the hunt. I was rescued (in November, 1974) from guilt and a stubborn irrational belief in an impersonal chance universe (with the accompanying hopelessness). I'm now convinced that nothing is more obvious or worthy of our attention than our Creator and the one true ancient path. Only Jesus has the words of everlasting life. Like John Newton "I once was lost but now am found, was blind but now I see."

This is actually true...or at least of my parents. I once got a 94% on a Math test and my parents made me pull out of the basketball team. They said, 'Yukiko, you are Japanese you have to do better in math than the Americans'...alas, every math class in highschool I had the top grade.
wow. i hate math.
heh. I LOVE math!!!
...and if the Asian kids are like me, they'll say, "Why don't we pack up our calculators and mail them to those poor kids??"
