1.1% of car value is taxed to pay for the light rail. The car value is calculated based on the MSRP and yearly depreciation of few %. I am not a rich man but I really like cars. I always dream of owing many cars and rare cars ... But I will not pursue that dream any more. I am not going to put myself in the position to buy a nice cars only to pay more taxes.
Tax like is pushed people like me from buying a beer car. It has a negative effect on the economy. THIS IS WRONG. If you want to build the light rail system, come up with the better system instead of crushing my dream.
This is one of the most inspiring TED speech ... It is in Japanese but main theme of the speed was "思うは招く" which means "If you wish enough, you will get it."
What inspired me the most is when he talked about expensive car. It is not a car you are looking at. It is a dream of someone. You are just buying his dream. People say "You cannot do that", "it is impossible"... Do you notice that those words always come from the people who have never done anything.
When people are trying something new, you need toggle them little encouragements. That is all they need. I really love the speech.
When you see cherries in Washington State ... it is a sign of summer. It is our tradition send box of cherries to our clients in Japan for thanking them for supporting is.
I pay $10.00 for 2TB of iCloud storage.
I think we should build better photo storage software service.
I used to use Aperture software from Apple ... then they stop supporting it. So I had to switch to Photos ... The transfer was not very good and I had to re-enter a lot of text. Now with almost 133,000 photos, Photos is crapping out on me often. Apple is loosing its quality control.
I reported on NE 8th reducing speed from 35 Mph to 25Mph few days ago. It is now reduced to 25Mph.
Well, actually city is doing some construction and lanes are reduces from 4 lanes to 2 lanes. That was the reason for this speed reduction of 10Mph. I understand the reason for this completely. But when it was announced, all they said was "Speed Reduced to 25Mph" with no explanation what so ever.
They should have communicate it better. It is important for any business to communicate better with customers and vendors.
My father is the head of an organization called Ashiya PC ... their mission is to teach elders how to use PCs so they can communicate better with younger generations.
