It's isn't enough time to get in to anything here either, but here it goes: Did they take away the 15 character deal for comments? I think they did! I was able to send just a rose to Shelly!...

Tomorrow starts the Golden Week holidays. This is the time of year when highways are clogged with holiday makers for all the little holidays that run together making it what it is called, a 'Golden Week'.
