Overheard

“Even on the most exalted throne in the world we are only sitting on our own bottom.”

“Everyday, think as you wake up, today I am fortunate to be alive, I have a precious human life, I am not going to waste it. I am going to use all my energies to develop myself, to expand my heart out to others; to achieve enlightenment for the benefit of all beings. I am going to have kind thoughts towards others, I am not going to get angry or think badly about others. I am going to benefit others as much as I can.”

“A man should ever be ready booted to take his journey.”

“From Obedience and submission comes all our virtues, and all sin is comes from self-opinion.”

“Man is the only animal whose existence is a problem that he has to solve.”

Noriko says she's good at: 1) cooking with whatever is on hand, and 2) waking up at after a specific amount of time without an alarm clock.

I think I'm good at: 1) drawing easy-to-understand diagrams (of all kinds of systems and things), and 2) identifying cars on the street.

Bugs? Who knew?

(P.S. I realize I didn't answer your question correctly. Two things each... Sorry.)

Jason,

That's OK. You're both just twice as talented as everyone else.

Mine's NSFW. Sorry I can't tell you, but this is a clean blog, is it not?

I have been told I'm pretty good at troubleshooting software bugs. Maybe because the voice in my head keeps asking "What about this? What if...?"

I can also pick the best thing to eat on a menu.
