Well, I'm gone....for a little while

Actually I've been aware of it for about three weeks, I just wanted more information before making an announcement.
Yes, I have accepted a six month assignment, in Tokyo, to work on the Rotating Equipment SpecificationS/Bid packages for a chemical facility to be built in Saudi. I really hate to go.....yeahhhh right.....but someone has to do it. Ahhhh....now you are aware of one of my dark secrets.........
Since I've never been to Tokyo and don't know how things click, I've called on, N2BMW, (Jeff) which resides there and he has provided me with some guidance. We plan to hook up and hopefully ride, we will post accounts and pics of our adventures.............I'm told that I will have available an internet connection at the efficiency that has been set aside for me....which by the way is small by US standards. Just in case I will take a box of Depends with me......He, He, He.
I was also told to take plenty of clothes, westerners are hard to fit there, let along someone marketing size like me.......I'm really excited.....err....really dread the thought and promise that I will have all of you present on my mind on a daily basis.
I'm working on an assignment downunder....to vist with DJ and the guys............
I'm also saddened by the fact that I will be unable to attend any of the functions scheduled for the first half of the year, Bashes, Texas Hill Country and the Barber Motorsports Supoerbike race.........
On the good side, I'm looking forward to the assignment from the standpoint of the job involvement, the location, as well as being able to hook up with Jeff.........wish me good luck.
domo arigato......thank you
