Madison

Madison. I think of President Madison, or Madison Wiscosin. Infact 'madison' can also mean marathon. Tomorrow is my village's marathon. 26miles in the mountains? No, try 5 km, some marathon. I can't run worth shit, at least not for a long time. I don't think I will enter even though everyone is doing it. It is a big deal here. I'll see come 9:30 in the morning.
How about them Red Sox. Shit, they did it. I know that it was because of that kid who lost some teeth after getting smacked by a foul ball. The kid lives in the same house that Babe Ruth used to live in when he played for the Yankees. I can't believe they did it. They now have like 6 world series titles, but the last was one obtained in 1918. Now if only the Cubs...
I have been teaching about Halloween recently. It hasn't caught here, well it is sort of a Christian holiday and the Japanese practice mostly Shintoism and Buddhism when there is a need to. Well all the holidays ahve pretty much lost their meaning in America anyways. Halloween is a great commercialstic holiday so it could catch on here someday. I mean candy, free candy. Free Pocky.
