Haato-chan's Concert
Here's another Haato-chan story from onechan.
***
Onechan: Ummm, Haato-chan is playing the violin and then she wanted ice cream. And then she said, "I want to eat dinner." And then I said, "Not yet, Haato-chan." And then she said, "I want you to read a book." And then she said, " Why did you love me?" And then she said, "Why are we here?" And then I said, "That's why, to keep us safe."
Me: Is the story over?
Onechan: Yup.

Now it's imoto's turn to type:

Hello America
Onechan wants to tell the story of how Haato-chan came to live with us.
***
Onechan: She was a very little bear. Sparky-chan picked her up in the store.
Me: What happened next?
Onechan: Haato-chan went to school, and was in a play, and that's how she got sick. No, no, no, not sick. She wanted ice cream. Why does that say, "No, no, no"? I didn't say that.
Me: Yes, you did.
Onechan: And that's how she fell asleep.
Imoto: Dat's how she falled sleep.
Onechan: And that's why she likes onechan.
***
We'll have more Haato-chan stories for Uncle Bill soon! Onechan can't wait to tell the story of how she got sick.

QSMS Has Come Early in Japan...
...at least for fans of the Pretty Cure franchise. Behold the trailer for the March 20, 2009, release of Precure All Stars DX, a movie that brings together the casts of every season of onechan's formerly favorite anime...if you dare!
Hat tip: moetron, which is breaking teh intertubes today, apparently.
Oh, and onechan can't take the fighting in Pretty Cure any more--runs out of the room screaming, usually. It seems the magical girl genre has become a lot more Dragonball in recent years. Speaking of which:
Why even try turning anime into live action? Meh.

Sparkychan Flix
Sparkychan has authorized me to release the following pictures of her Grandpaland adventure:
Is she looking for a Fill-Oz-of-Her or is she pretending to ride a pony? Or both?
Here she is thinking and contemplating. Maybe's she's wondering when she'll have ice cream and tea with Gojochan and Onechan and Imoto:
And here she's giving reality the Old Test:

Safeway International Thursday: Stanford's 62 Sets Course Record
And I got to see it all on Golf Channel! Yup, drove onechan and imoto yesterday to my hometown to hang out with my folks for a couple of days toward the end of my spring break. What, delay the girls' bed-time to watch women's golf after dinner? How could I? Well, my parents have a picture of my little bro and me at ages 4 and 6 or something with Sally Little and Nancy Lopez at some LPGA event somewhere. Where do you think I get my sports fanaticism from, anyway?
So between the batting around plastic golf balls inside and out before dinner and getting to see the people whose maru and shikaku (circles and squares--that is, birdies and bogeys) we usually only track onine, onechan and imoto are huge LPGA fans now, too. Onechan's new favorite is Natalie Gulbis, thanks to the pink ribbon in her hair and the pink accents in her top, but she also stuck up in favor of Momoko Ueda's top--also pink, but ruffly--against the consensus in the room that it was responsible for her bad round. For whatever reason, she wasn't as impressed with Ai Miyazato's pink top--it was Gulbis who leaped to the top of her list of favorite players, passing Paula Creamer and Karrie Webb, while Ai-chan and Momo-chan lag behind. In fact, she had imoto playing Momo-chan, me playing Ai-chan, and my dad playing Moira Dunn while she played Natalie during the telecast. Two years ago I would have been hating that, but my opinion of Gulbis has gone way up since I realized what a fighter she is.
OK, getting back to the golf, what an amazing round by Angela Stanford yesterday, eh? Her interview on-line wasn't nearly as great as her post-round one on the Golf Channel, but it was clear from everything she said in both that this was a once-in-a-lifetime round for her. Not to say that she can't continue to go low and extend her lead on the field--the way things went today, she exemplified what Tiger was saying about how hard it is to win on tour: everyone's so good that you need some things to go your way that normally don't in order to come out on top. Well, when you look at her last two birdies, on 17 and 18--the first a long bomb she was shocked dropped and the second a result of some great bounces and rolls on a practically-skull-hooked 3-wood that got her on the par 5 in two--you start thinking that this just might be her week.
But, the Safeway International kicks off a run of 72-hole events, in which a first-round lead matters much less. But, her closest pursuer, only 3 shots back, is Lorena Ochoa, and she also was rolling in a bomb or two and making some breaks happen. (Her sand save for par on 17 was key and her fairway-wood approach on 18 also got a good bounce, so her final two holes were crucial vis a vis momentum, too.) But, Sherri Steinhauer made 8 birdies on her way to a 66, and once she's figured out a course, she doesn't usually back off. But, it looks like some Young Guns, led by Ya Ni Tseng and Jee Young Lee at 67, may be tuning in early into the Prospector course, which typically takes many repetitions to hone in on. But, 19 players broke 70 and 53 went under par, including many capable of going super-low themselves.
On the other hand, a lot of players never got anything going on a day ripe for scoring, some even had horrific rounds (a 75 for Momo-chan? a 78 for In-Kyung Kim??), and many who had some good things going on had disappointing finishes. Take Birdie Kim. Or wait, forget that one: thanks to a Golf Channel scoring error, I thought she had gotten to -6, but it turns out she only got to -4 before her final-hole bogey on the 9th dropped her to T11. (Paula Creamer and Jeong Jang had about the same story, just with birdie-only rounds broken up by late bogeys on the 7th and 4th, respectively.) Let's try again. How about Stacy Prammanasudh? She went out bogey-free on the back and carded a 32, but proceeded to have a birdie-free 38 on the front. (Hee-Won Han repeated the feat, going 33-37 to be stuck with Stacy at T20.) Or try Mi Hyun Kim: consecutive closing bogeys on the 8th and 9th turned what could have been a mid-60s round into a 71 (T33). And Laura Diaz had recovered from a double bogey on the 2nd to get to -2 with two holes to play, but promptly bogeyed the 17th and 18th to fall back to T54.
Although a lot of hot players left a lot of strokes out on the course, others started to get something going toward the ends of their rounds. Christina Kim went on a birdie barrage, making 5 birdies in her last 12 holes, to come back from an opening stretch in which she followed up an early birdie with bogeys on 3 of her next 4 holes. Annika Sorenstam was stuck in neutral for most of her round, but consecutive closing birdies on the 17th and 18th bode well for the living legend. Even Ai-chan, who had her putting problems on the front, closed with a gritty sand save for par on 17 and birdied 18 to fight back to E on a course that's given her fits in the past. When she gets her putter going, she's capable of going quite low, so watch out for her tomorrow.
Speaking of Ai-chan, it's annoying that the Golf Channel announcers have her pegged as a short hitter. Nothing about her averaging a respectable 253 yards off the tee in her rookie season. Nothing about her post-HSBC leg injury that led to swing glitches and confidence problems. Nothing about her switching to a 3-wood off the tee for a good part of the second half of last season as a result. Nothing about what she was using off the tee yesterday. Just the steady drumbeat of, "Oh, she's 30 yards behind Ochoa on this hole" and "It must feel terrible to be 55 yards behind Ochoa on that hole." All I'm saying is, you'd think people paid to talk in particular about the players in the prime-time pairings would, you know, do some actual research on those people. To be fair, Dottie Pepper mentioned that Ai-chan's dad is travelling with her for a time to help her keep working on her swing and ease the pressure of the Japanese media's high expectations. But even that factoid could have been much better contextualized.
Looking ahead to Friday's round, it's far too soon to call this tournament for Stanford, or even portray it as a three-player race. With Golf Channel coverage starting at 1 pm our time tomorrow, we should get to see quite a bit of the prime-time pairings on the front:
and the back:
And maybe even a little bit of some fascinating pairings in the afternoon, off #1
and #10
In other words, I'm not complaining that tomorrow's weather forecast is bad at grandma and grandpa's place!

Momo-chan's 2008 Schedule: The Ambiguity of the Peach Girl
Momoko Ueda seems to be leaving open-ended the question of how many LPGA and how many JLPGA events she'll be playing in 2008. If you click on the links in the last sentence, you'll see she basically just lists both tours' schedules on her site, without giving any hints that I can find as to where she'll actually be playing any given week. Perhaps she's dropped some on her blog, but we'll need someone who can read Japanese to find out. While the Full Metal Archivist is virulently uninterested in the JLPGA, I do have a former colleague from Fukuoka visiting town to give two talks on campus this week; since he's not leaving till Sunday, I may have the opportunity to enlist him in a project or three before then.
Oh, and one guess why Momo-chan is one of onechan's favorite golfers!

Lift Off
Episode 2 of 2001 Redux: A Toy Odyssey
Kong: “So, how’re we going to investigate the green box if it’s up in space?”
Jumper: “Why, we’ll have to go up in space.”
Kong: “Gee, I’ve never been in space. How do we get there?”
“We’ll have to fly in a rocket ship.”
“A rocket ship! Won’t that go higher than high and faster than fast?”
“Yes, it will. It’s so neat.”
“Uh . . . I don’t know . . . I mean, what if it crashes?“
“It won’t crash, Kong. It’s safe.”
“I don’t know. Sounds pretty scary to me. You ever done this before?”
“Lots of times. That’s how I used to visit Sparkychan and Gojochan.”
“Well, OK, I guess, if you say so.”
And so the two friends went to Jump-Off Space Port, at the very farthest edge of Citytown:
When they got inside it was BIG.
Finally, they saw their space ship. And they jumped right on it:
Jump: “Um, err, I don’t think we’re supposed to be on the outside of the ship.”
Kong: “Why not?”
“’Cause we might fall off. And get cold.”
“Get cold?”
“Yeah, Kong, it’s cold out in space.”
So the two friends got inside the space ship:
Then the space ship took off. Rumble rumble roar roar whooshhh whooshhh whooshhhhhh . . . . it went. Jump and Kong were in space!
“Whee! This isn’t so bad,” said Kong.
“That’s right,” said Jump, “it’s not bad it all. It’s fun.”
And so they flew and flew and talked and talked. They even had hot chocolate and cookies. And then . . . .
“There it is,” said Kong, “the green box.”
They got closer, and the box got bigger . . .
. . . and bigger . . .
“Boy, it sure is big,” said Jump.
And, look!” said Kong. “It’s turning funny colors”
And so it was:
“It’s turning blue and red,” said Jump. “I wonder what’s happening?”
“It’s still changing,” said Jump. “I’m getting scared.”
"Me, too," said Kong. "But, ya know, it's kinda pretty, too. Don't you think?"
“Looks like it’s heating up,” said Kong.
“Now it’s glowing,” said Jump. “I wonder what’s happening. Is it going to explode?”
“I don’t know,” said Kong, “I don’t know. But I just talked with Mayor Grumble, and he said that Citytown is OK.”
“That’s good,” said Jump. “I think we just have to keep calm and investigate.”
And so the friends kept calm and began to investigate. What did they find out? Did the green box explode? Did it turn into candy? What did it do? Tune in next time for the next episode of 2001 Redux: A Toy Odyssey.
In episode one Jumper and Kong got a call on the Red Phone. “There’s a mysterious green box up in space over Citytown,” said Mayor Grumpy Grumble. And so the two friends sat down to plan plans and scheme schemes, while drinking hot chocolate and eating cookies. Note for squeamish adults: there's no poop in this episode.
Kong: “So, how’re we going to investigate the green box if it’s up in space?”
Jumper: “Why, we’ll have to go up in space.”
Kong: “Gee, I’ve never been in space. How do we get there?”
“We’ll have to fly in a rocket ship.”
“A rocket ship! Won’t that go higher than high and faster than fast?”
“Yes, it will. It’s so neat.”

I had a dream
Hey, Sparkychan, I had a strange dream last night.
You did? Tell me about it.
I dreamt that some old meanie attacked us and imprisoned us in a box.
Oh, that's a scary dream, Gojochan, very scary.
And then, you know what, Sparkychan?
What? Tell me tell me!
They sent the box into space. Way way way out there to no where.
That's scary, very scary. Gives me the creeping creepies.
Yeah, and we didn't have any tea in the box!
No tea! What about ice cream?
No ice cream either.
Wow, Gojochan, that is a very scary dream. No tea and ice cream. I don't know if I could live without tea and ice cream.
Yeah, but then you know what happened?
What?
The box stopped moving . . .
Yes, yes . . .
And the top opened up . . .
And . . . .
And there was a lovely little girl who lifted us out.
Wow!
And gave us a ride in her baby carriage.
Sounds like fun!
Oh, it was Sparkychan, lots of fun. And she had a little sister who was very nice as well.
Wow, two little girls to play with us. What fun. But, um, err . . . did they drink tea with us, Gojochan?
I don't know, Sparkychan. All of a sudden the dream was over and I woke up.
I wonder if those little girls were from Kansas.
I don't know Sparkychan, but they sure were strong and brave.
You did? Tell me about it.
I dreamt that some old meanie attacked us and imprisoned us in a box.
Oh, that's a scary dream, Gojochan, very scary.
And then, you know what, Sparkychan?
What? Tell me tell me!
They sent the box into space. Way way way out there to no where.
That's scary, very scary. Gives me the creeping creepies.

Wow, two little girls to play with us. What fun. But, um, err . . . did they drink tea with us, Gojochan?
I don't know, Sparkychan. All of a sudden the dream was over and I woke up.
I wonder if those little girls were from Kansas.
I don't know Sparkychan, but they sure were strong and brave.

Rarer Than a Hole in One
Check out Momoko Ueda's double eagle on the 7th at the Mizuno Classic this past Sunday (that's a 2 on a par 5 for you non-golfers):
It's in the first 10 seconds, but if you stay for the post-interview sequence at the end, you'll see a very emotional hug from Ai-chan congratulating Momoko on her win. Worth the wait. (And in the middle you can make like the girls and clap with the crowd during the interview.)
p.s.--for more on Ueda, check out her web site. Onechan said, "She's like Paula Creamer!" upon seeing the site. One guess why.
p.p.s.--the youtube clip was found by JLPGA star Mi-Jeong Jeon and posted on the Seoul Sisters discussion board--yet another reason to check it out regularly.
