HAPPY SUNDAY!!

That's right! Finally, after more than 12 hours of work yesterday, my weekend can begin. I've got some great stuff lined up for today, there'll be a blog post about it by tomorrow, hopefully with pics. Stay tuned, but for now I want to point you back towards Japan, as the people there are still suffering from the Fukushima Daiichi power plant explosion, and although the clean-up has gone pretty well according to plan, their situation is now roughly equivalent to the damage done at Chernobyl in 1986. Pictured in the below link is just one man who's volunteered to irradiate himself to spare the next generation of Japanese from what could be an absolutely terrible situation, as the island of Japan does not have anywhere near enough land mass for them to simply move away from the irradiated zones.  As the story below explains one group of Japanese elderly from an old folks have turned out in the hundreds to help, realizing that the effects of irradiation would set in well after their deaths. That's heroism. No other word for it. Link's below,
