Dear Japanese readers who find my blog using the terms “Palin glasses” (in Japanese, of course):
Those glasses are not cool. Not cool at all, yo! Kakko yokunai!
By the way, since changing laptops to a MacBook, I’ve lost my Japanese language tool kit, which allowed me to type in Japanese, and I don’t know where to locate one for a Mac. Does anyone out there know where I should look online for one? Any suggestions are much appreciated.
Arigatou, in advance.

How many Japanese readers?
That is because when you search ” Palin san no megane” in Nihongo at Google, you find your September 16, 2008 blog on the top of the articles.
I’m sorry but LOL.
I think Palin’s Glasses are cool, cooler than Bush’s dodged shoes.
I can’t vouch for how well it works but there’s a free widget available for download from Apple’s website. http://www.apple.com/downloads/dashboard/travel/languagetranslator.html
Hope it helps.
