Buses? Those are for suckers. I can go faster than them, so why use them?

Well, when the rest of the faculty in the teacher's room tell you "you smell bad", or that you're making puddles on the floor from dripping rain water -or both- reconsider that bus option.

So that's how you plan to make off with the local women! Okay, good idea, in that case.

Got to get the beer out of my system somehow. I can change clothes before bed time. I don't need super powers for that=) Deodorant helps too.


Well maybe, but drunks don't plan. See sweating out beer.

(10-4 on changing your clothes before bed.Wink)

Also, I happen to have the following question for those in the know about filing Japanese taxes:
If one is paying for his or her own transportation to work, in Japan, are train passes, bus passes, etc., tax deductible? If one is considered a "full-time" employee of a school, dispatch company, etc., is this then not an option? I'm thinking -but am hardly sure- that only people or entities that are independent contractors can take this deduction. (I used to deduct transportation expenses when I was self-employed, in Japan. But going way back to when I was commuting back and forth as a teacher, I wasn't yet thinking of these things.)
