A semi-comical look at the quests of the Hall family: Shawn (good beer & worldly knowledge), Nobuko (cakes, cookies, and straight long hair), and MoMo (anything that resembles food & ear rubs...especially from women).

It's Back!

Everyone,

The AJC International Auto Show has returned! It will be at the Georgia World Congress Center from April 9-17. Tickets are $10. For more info, go to www.ajcautoshow.com

I definitely will be there....It's fun to take pictures of Nobuko "driving" big redneck trucks. You can also see all of Panaworld's car radios.

If anyone is interested in going, let me know.

Living Life at the Speed of Sound....

All,

Wow, the last few days have been extremely busy, and next week doesn't look any easier. Everybody else is probably in the same boat (especially all of the KPMG folks...hang in there until April 15th!).....but Spring time is here! Slow down and enjoy the beauty of all the new plants - before pollen season hits.

I have added some links over on the right side of the page:

- "Japan Today" is the best English site about current events in Japan
- "Atlanta Beltline" is the official site about the proposed Beltline transit system
- "Homepage" is our .Mac website. It is a work in progress!

Last weekend Nobuko & I finally made it to the Super-H Mart. If BHFM is Cub Foods, then this place is Publix. It was ok, but I thought it was a little overpriced. And I could do without all of the stares from the ultra-conservative Korean "obasans". I mean, Come On! It's 2005...you think they would have seen an inter-racial couple by now.

For Japanese news, on Sunday nights Album 88.5 plays J-pop/rock/rap/??? They were playing bands from SXSW tonight. I listened to a band called Bleach (I liked them...but how could I not like 3 j-girls playing rock music), and the Electric Eel Shock (playing next week at the EARL). The radio program is interesting & wide-ranging, but Nobuko hates it! She says I listen to it just to make fun of "her people". I am just hoping that one day I'll hear the Nihongo version of PuffyAmiYumi's "Teen Titans"....

After Japanese class Saturday, we went to Umezono and had a big bowl of chirashi. Oiishi! And at Tomato I saw two Pana-world people (one of them was Craig's boss). Nobuko says it's a small world.

Happy belated birthdays to Ayako & Marian!

Welcome!

Welcome to MoMo's World! This is our attempt to communicate with all of our friends & family & coworkers. The blog is kinda bare right now, so pardon our progress. As we get more adept on the new Mac we hope to have this thing blazin'.

Why MoMo's World? If you don't know, he is our very spoiled Boston Terrier who doesn't think of himself of a dog. We feel he is a worthwhile mascot.

We hope you all will enjoy this place, as you enjoy Nobuko & myself as friends. Our friends are from a pretty wide spectrum, from different countries, various marital states, various sexual orientations, various colors/races/& religions. Please be respectful of that whenever you post. If you find this isn't the place for you; That's cool too. We'll still love ya....

Welcome to the World!
