Blame it on Greenspan and Horiemon

Wednesdays are a little strange for me. I spend most of the day muttering to myself alone in my aparto preparing lesson plans. Then I drive over to Mr. M's and have brief comment exchanges with him. Next I go teach my dimbulb class, adorable but none-to-bright. And then I go to Pulstec and talk to engineers. I have to say switching from 4 year olds to super educated scientists is a bit much. Really one minute I'm teaching "Up" and "Down", and the next I am discussing the fluxuations in the world money markets. I'm surprised my head doesn't explode from that sort of contrast. Tonight at Pulstec we discussed the Yen vs. the Dollar and I was complainimg how awful an exchange rate I got yesterday when I wired money home. Kiyoshi says Alan Greenspan and Takafumi Horie are to blame. Horie is a Japanese business man who is in the middle of a huge scandal, so bad that the Tokyo stock exchange had to shut down one day due to stocks bottoming out all over the place. If you don't know who Alan Greenspan is you probably aren't intelligent enough to read this blog so go away. I have no clue whether Kiyoshi is right or not, but it's a good theory and I need someone to blame. So scowls and dirty looks to you both.
