I was watching an old clip of the Leave It To Beaver show where the class had to write a fifty word composition of what their mothers did before they got married. After Beaver listened to the others in his class he decided his...

Richard L. Meister Jr. @much2say It was a bit of a shock to realize you weren't the smartest in the class when you hit junior high?

Today I walked down to the mailbox. It was drizzling, nothing big. On my way back suddenly hailstones came bombarding out of the sky. Luckily I only had a few more steps until I was in the house. Once I was in the house and took...

Richard L. Meister Jr. @much2say Right now here it's snowing. We have a couple of inches on the ground. This is a bit early for snow here but it looks like it's going to warm up in a couple of days.

Richard L. Meister Jr. @much2say I know when I was in school it was assumed that all Japanese were smart. Every kid in the Japanese family that went to school there was at the top of their class. That is old school to think the girls in the family should get married and take care of...

Richard L. Meister Jr. @much2say The last time I ate Reese's it was way too sweet. The Kit Kat aren't too bad but I'm willing to give them away. Rain/snow mix here. Jackets are a wise idea in this weather.

Richard L. Meister Jr. @much2say It would be hard to hide the fact that you are Japanese/Asian. Did you ever feel pressured to do your best in school?

Richard L. Meister Jr. @much2say I bought Kit Kats and Reese's peanut butter cups. Too cold here for them to melt. They are forecasting snow.

A couple of days ago I called my brother to inform him of the two percent increase in Social Security. I thought he would want to figure out how much more he was going to get. So I asked him how much he was getting now. “I don’t...

Richard L. Meister Jr. @much2say I had heard about how the Japanese lost everything when they went into the concentration camps. I had never heard about a trade with Japan. When I was in school there was a Japanese family that when to school there. The girl in my class was very...

Richard L. Meister Jr. @much2say That's right, not even one. I thought the neighbor would bring his kids over but he didn't. It only take one to ruin the honor system. For me, next year I'm not going to give out candy. I'm leaving my porch lights off. I'm thinking I'll give my...

Richard L. Meister Jr. @much2say I don't know if he is stashing any extras for a rainy day but he may be better off now. He did look up exactly what he was getting and we figured out how much more he is going to get.

Richard L. Meister Jr. @much2say I was wondering why they move to Japan afterwards. When I was in high school one of my teachers told the class that the concentration camp was more for the protection of the Japanese families from people ganging up on them for being Japanese.

Richard L. Meister Jr. @much2say I left my porch light on until 11:30 and no one came to my door. So I'm not even going to bother with it next year. My neighbor did even bring his kids over. One of the local tv stations sent a reporter up to a house where the owner has been doing a...

Richard L. Meister Jr. @much2say My brother isn't quite that bad. His last vehicle was a gas guzzling SUV. This new one is much better on gas. The vehicles he had before were not gas guzzlers. They were pretty practical. And, yes, the vehicle he just got rid of was giving him...

This morning I heard sirens. Then I looked out the window and saw five or six police vehicles up the road with rifles out pointing at a house. “Come out of the building,” one of the cops said over a loud speaker. “Come out right...

Richard L. Meister Jr. I suppose there wasn't a lot for a woman to do in the 1920s. It seems rather harsh to marry someone because her father told her to especially someone she didn't love. Interesting you dated someone who was on the "Beaver" even if she didn't talk. Several years...

Richard L. Meister Jr. Quite interesting. I knew about your mother's dislike of picking strawberries but I had no idea your mother was born in a concentration camp and moved to Japan and back to the U.S. Did your mother's family hold a grudge against the U.S. for putting them in a...
