Japan doesn't "work" for anybody.

I would love to leave with you. The problem is that after 15 years in this
joint, there is no "Indiana" to go home to. The country I left no longer
exists. The street names are still there, the city names, the basic
geography of the USA I left still exists, but they are like ghosts from
yesteryear. Aside from the geography, everything is completely different. I
go to the states and am utterly and hopelessly lost! "Who are these obese
inconsiderate assholes?" is what I want to know!!! Where did these idiots
come from?
