Yep, my ground base of philosophy and major inspiration for life and blog writing all comes from the Japanese stuff - and so far, it has served me well (the funny farm is still waiting for the return call).<br><br>I think it's absolutely vital to be a bit nuts if you want to create something creative, but I don't worry too much about the both of us ;) Awesome magic, Catherine, I'll join the geek heaven !
