Just wanted to wish Maichan a wonderful birthday. I've had the pleasure of becoming good friends with him over the years and look forward to many more birthdays to come!

Thank you gentlemen! It's been an honoring getting to know our terrific Dojo members, and getting meet some of you.

Yesterday my wife & I visited the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures to see the Hayao Miyazaki exhibition. It was a fun day. Except for the Friday traffic.

Photos were not allowed in the exhibit. It was nice, but I was just a little disappointed. It seemed most of the Miyazaki art/notes was reproductions, but the other art by studio staff was original. The exhibit catalog seems to be really nice though, so makes up for it. See the exhibit if you can.

Filming something for the museum. That's my wife there... the only time I can take a picture of her is when she's not looking.
