A Fellow Driver Left
A fellow driver left.
I don't know why ...
He's been absent lately and I've been worrying alittle but never thought he was going to leave.
Because he looked motivated to be behind the wheel here.
He was 30 years old, young as a cabby here as average driver's age is just below 60.
So even I ,38, be considered "young" and surrounded by bunch of elder guys.
I have been looking forward to having young fellows and I believe if more young guys come around, cab industry would change.
I have talked to the guy afew times and felt he was good one.
He was the age that I started driving as a cabby.
He said he was just got married and ought to make a good family as a driver like me.
I'm alittle disappointed hearing the "bad" news.
But wait to see...
He has his life, family, future.
He would be good I believe.
I'm not alone.
This industry need alittle more time to change.
I still sit here behind the wheel, maybe next afew years.
I'll see what happens and wish and believe our future.

Sunrise in a cloudy morning
I took this one during the Bon holiday in Hukuchiyama, up north in Kyoto.
I walk up to Maizuru on the day.
That was hot and hard walking there ..

Clouds in me
But there was no shower in the evening.
Shower is the anger of the sky...
I wanna get rid of the anger in me if possible.
I wanna get rid of the clouds in me if possible.

Been Cloudy
This beautiful sun set is actually the one I took a week ago.
From then, it's been not very clear weather, cloudy... sometimes sun shines but it doesn't kick them, damn disturbing clouds.
Temp doesn't also get excited, stay below 30...
I like real hot summer
I'd been heated, on a roll making good shifts lately.
And as the weather got cooling off gradually I'm getting, kind of, set.
I'm lookin forward he, harsh sunshine, comes back and make me get heated again.

Political Network
They say rainy season has started last week, that's much earlier than normal, but we get not much water this week.
The biggest news here is the unconfidence vote of the national government yesterday.
The vote was rejected anyway after a series of ugly argument,
but Japanese PM will change again
as he, Naoto Kan, announced just before the vote.
Actually I liked him although I didn't unlike a few of his predecessors as most patriots in this lovely country did.
It doesn't matter if a small guy like me like the leader or not, that's not big deal.
The issue is why he decided to step down.
At least up to last week when we had alot of rain, he looked determined to stay there.
It's interesting that I watched the DVD "social network" yesterday, and I found something in common.
Mark Zuckerberg, the founder of the great Facebook, owed small money, or small idea, to his friends when he was young (he's actually still very young though).
Later, after everyone got to know he is really a big guy, people came around as always and tried to get something back.
Let's go back to Japanese political drama.
I like Mr. Kan because he is an ordinary guy not like guys in political family.
Maybe he had a hard time to raise money to work as a politician when he was young.
And now, some idiot come around him when he got authority.
Anyway it's ugly... weird.
The study just tells us you need money if you wanna be a leader.
You cannot be like Mark if you are a politician.
That is not "social" but "political" network.
May 3rd Fri.
