Raised fee kills media stars

Honestly, it's abnormal that a play I create charges over 10000 JPY (125 USD), I think.
And I worder what a media a play is which does not pay without such a fee.

Expensive fee filters out some people and let contents encircled. As a result almost all the consumers move to other contents.

Accident washed my stacked stresses away

(download)

I was hit yesterday. Though it was a pain, it also flush away my stacked spiky feelings concerned traffic brutals on the streets, stations and in trains. Now I got back my modesties and just has become in peace and quiet that I had been after the last accident.

Fortunately, the wound was not serious and my bike got few damage. I thank my helmet, gloves and long sleeves.

I saw three or five against the rules today. One spat at me. Okay, "Bye" is the only word I would say and I even don't care much about those. I'm on my way home. Sweet home. Homeward-bound.

To turn it on, go to the Labs tab in Settings, enable this lab, and click the “Save Changes” button at the very bottom of the page. Note that it’ll only works in Chrome (version 6 and above) and Firefox (version 2 and above).
