Thoughts of the day

1. Japanese people must really resent/dislike America.
In the majority of the manga's I've read, the Americans are always portrayed as power hungry, condescending, cocky, and selfish people. In some, they might have a few outstanding American who are still honorable among many dishonorable Americans, but that's only in some. I guess that is the consequence of taking advantage of other countries.

2. It's funny how people refer to things as the bible. Like in Nuclear 250 today, my g.s.i referred to one of the textbooks as the Bible for Nuclear students or something like that. I'm sure what he meant was that we'll be constantly turning to the book for reference and help. But ironically enough, I don't think Christians really depend/rely on the Bible, nor do they constantly turn to it for help and advice, myself included. Isn't that a shame? I think we should make it one of our goals to bring legitimacy back into that metaphor.
