[30th June 2006]

Live from Guanzate (Como) in Italy, here he cooooommmmmmmeeeesssssssss: ZA LOX !!!!

Well, the fact that I am about to be travelling again to Japan (and we are at three times in the past six month), means that I will physically be on air again. The last business trip with this company is going to be quite interesting, a new "side" of the Japanese mentality will unveil for me, the part that deals with telling that I am leaving and why.
Yesterday my boss told me that the big cheese in this company wasn't happy at the prospect of me doing this trip, another proof that these people really don't know anything about how business is done in Asia.

Needless to say that the main dish will be served on Thursday and Friday, when I will be discussing the potentially very interesting offer from this big Japanese multinational, I have been thinking about it more and more, and I came to the conclusion that if the offer is a good one I will definitely jump onboard.

This trip will be the last working week with my present agent (and above all very good friend) Kutsunugi san. There are hopes that we might work together in the future, but as there is nothing fixed the week WILL mark the end of a five years experience that has been simply great, both professionally and under the human point of view.
I owe him a lot.

It's interesting to see that I will be leaving exactly when the results are sky rocketing, we are really getting a lot more of business, and I am happy to see that the hard work paid off (for the cynic ones: going out with ninpho-supermodels in expensive restaurants and hotels and entertaining pointless conversations with gay designers).
Also it's a good "sayonara present" for Kutsunugi san, let's hope that he can do even better without me.

I will be seeing John as well (maybe IF he doesn't fly to Seattle, IF he's not sick, IF I have time)...

At the end of the trip I will most probably have a clear direction on what I will be doing in the next couple of months, workwise! :)

Well, we shall see. Only the gods know what path lays before you.

Correction : 'lies' before you. (though I'm not so sure. I'm not comfortable with this verbs lie/lay, lay/laid.)

Irregular verbs are a bitch in English!

:)))) So guys, would you prefer to lie down... or get laid??? :))) And of course, any "bitch" involved might help!

(There you go, proof I *can* be rude!)

Good luck with the trip Lox, it sounds like it's going to be a great one! Get that new camera working overtime!! :))

Nigel: Will try to get it working during the trip, you might even get a picture of my boss after all this time!

I'd love not to tell a lie by saying that I lied down to get laid with that "biatch" :)
