Update of the moment:
10/1/08 - I've been translating recently, for fun. Yakuza

Song of the moment:
The Akira Soundtrack
I didn't really care for the movie, but the soundtrack is amazing. Especially at night, in the dark, with headphones. Really creepy but good at the same time. I love the stuff with voices.

Random thought of the Moment:
The amount people care about their countries leaders reflects the amount of domestic peace the people have.

Random word of the moment: Pencil
So I used to think that of course, "pencil" is just "pen" with a "cil" at the end. But NO! That's wrong!
Pencil is entirely different. Pencil originally meant a bunch of lines and come together to make a point. I guess you can imagine the end of the pencils where it gets skinnier and skinnier until it reaches a point. And the word has changed over time:
Pencil
Pensel
Pincel
Pinzel
In Latin, Penicillum meant paintbrush. And that word came from the word "penis" which meant "tail."
