I can’t wait for the last day at my office, when I retire, the hypothetical thinks I will likely hear will be epic

I’m conflicted…
If I watch my samurai DVD with the English dubbing turned on I can enjoy the story and the actor’s nuanced acting which I tend miss when reading subtitles. But then the Japanese actors have American accents and we all know that’s just wrong when coming out of a samurai’s mouth; they would’ve spoken English with a Japanese accent or ‘received pronunciation’.
So do I use the subtitles and miss the facial expression etc, or the dubbing and wonder how the samurai acquired a Brooklyn accent?

I was very excited with this work hiatus to spend time training, and potentially builsing a small group at a park to train with. Had it set on my calendar to set training to overgear monday (to fill in working time). Of course sunday night I injured myself and can barely use my right arm..hoping it recovers soon

Happy Birthday Chuck Norris, March 10

Chuck Norris does not use spell check. If he happens to misspell a word, Oxford will change the spelling.
The dark is afraid of Chuck Norris.
In Pamplona, Spain, the people may be running from the bulls, but the bulls are running from Chuck Norris.

"You'll need to take a responsible adult. NOT your uncle David! He does NOT fall into that category!" I mean, as much as it's true, it hurts
Same. In the meantime, I discovered today I can still ride my bike and do footwork. So focusing on that for now

I will remember you in my prayers tonight, if that's OK
That's fine by me if you want. There are definitely other people who could use it more though, I just hurt my arm.

It's OK, I can fit you in between major geopolitical dispute #1 and some dude's range rover, it's no biggie
Since replying to that, I've learned that my mother in law's bypass surgery (rosa) had complications, and my abuela caridad) is currently on the edge of going to hospice vs. being discharged normally. If you could pray for them I'd appreciate that. Sent my own prayers when i heard the news but additional prayers can't hurt.
