Y'know, there's an Internet cafe in that big shopping area--LOL, I still
have a discount ticket for 100 en in my wallet.  Shall I mail it to you?
(every little bit helps)  Seriously, it's called the I Love Yuu and they
were pretty nice there. All MS machines but who knows?  

I have the address and phone number if you think it might be of any use.

computer literate.  

Where in the US do you think you'll be--Josh and I are both in the
Northeast--well, he's sort of the Northeast.  :)

but I have enough so that I can't do this.
