Japanese House no minasan, Joh-kun, thank you for your message. Sounds great! I have one suggestion about your film viewing. I already mentioned this to a couple of people. If you have enough Japanese movies to show every Friday, that will be just fine, but if you don't have enough movies and if it is difficult for the members to host a movie night every Friday, you could also invite other Global Village suites to show movies. Please discuss this with members. We could discuss things like this at the first Japanese business luncheon, too. Look forward to seeing you all at the luncheon. One more thing, if you want to purchase new DVDs, please send the sites to me. Have a good week!!!
