back from NYC and Key West, FL

Sorry about the late post. We got back a few days ago and are busy with other things: among them, starting a new school under my own name. There are more than meet the eyes of course, contract details, shopping for textbooks, furnishings, etc.

Getting the Interweb proves to be an obstacle in our new apartment. After waiting for 2/3 of a month the phone company just told us we can't get their ADSL without a phone line. But we have no intention installing one because "owning" the right to a landline costs a small fortune in Japan. We both have our cell phone so that's out of the question.

Hey Todd. Good to hear. I wish you ALL THE BEST OF LUCK with your new venture. I hope it works out!!

About the phone line.... Mami and I have a "light" line at our house. It's only about ¥100 more per month and we "rent" the line as aopposed to owning it. This is through NTT. We then applied B-Flets Hikari Premium to it. (Fiber Optic 'Net, that TOTALLY rocks!) For ISP, I reccomend Asahi. They have lots of English support both live and on their website.
