A couple of days ago, I had the misfortune of seeing my site in Internet Explorer. If anyone<\/em> is using Internet Explorer, I strongly<\/em> urge you to try Mozilla Firefox. And what better time?

Last year, when I was in Japan, I seriously considered taking the bullet train to Tokyo to attend the Tokyo Game Show<\/a>. For whatever reasons (there were a few), I did not go.

It’s fun to watch business men fail at trying so hard not to crack a smile. \ud83d\ude42 <\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
