this evening peter and i fly to seattle to spend the holidays with my family. so there'll be no updates on robot action boy until january 3rd at the earliest. if you haven't done so already, head on over to the asia weblog awards and take a look at some of the great blogs that have been nominated. as mentioned before, robot action boy has been nominated for best taiwanese blog. and there are lots of great blogs nominated in the japanese section(jean snow, gmtplus9, and geisha asobi to name three), as well as good stuff in the best foreign blog(though i'm a little surprised that scrubbles hasn't gotten more votes).
