Is it a rail station? Or is it a portal? Why don't they get in the queue like the rest of us? Oh yes, we forgot: freedom. The presence of a U.S. Navy entrance at a Tokyo station, specifically referring to Yokosuka, is a result of the post-World War II security alliance between the…

Well, try as hard as we can, the dumbness of Royal His Dumbness still lingers over on this side of the country. He just doesn't seem to get the message does he? Maybe he can't read. So, we are based in Vancouver Canada. Today we wandered downtown to see the city because the…
