Swing Hacks in Japanese Ships

I'm going to be a complete nerd for a second and expound upon how amazingly cool it is that something I wrote has been translated into Japanese. I mean, writing down words that someone else pays for is cool and all, but it's even cooler when someone else translates my words into another language. The book even looks cooler. It's a tad smaller and has a very nice book jacket. The paper has a very different feel from the english printing; manga-esque actually.

Many thanks to Yuka Kamiya from Sun's Japanese division for sending them to me and Chris. Extra special thanks to Miyagawa-san and the rest of the folks at O'Reilly for publishing such an excellent translation.

Okay, back to your regularly scheduled english reading.
