I fell asleep and woke up just in time for Brazil. It seems to have improved a lot. They may have been looking at other displays and getting ideas. Watched a bit of CNN. It is awful without Kathy and the links are dreadful. There was one link where they had a marijuana party without ever mentioning the mental health problems that often result, mixed with alcohol makes the inbreeds round these parts many times worse. Totally irresponsible.

Here is a flashback to Japan. I didn't post these as I had distractions here. Lots of fires so it may have been colder than usual.

Second flashback to Japan. They always have something unusual.

The glowing domes may be houses for E.T. or more likely Domo-kun.

Over in Germany, here is the thing most people don't think about.

Not the near freezing polluted smelly water. Very few people want to do this.

I mean the cleaning up after the fireworks. Look at all the empty bottles, these are just a few. Some big half full beer glasses as well.

The machines make it easier than in the olden days when it was all manual labour. Except for the bottles and glasses which have to be picked up by hand.
