Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen, left, listens to President Donald ...
　さあ、どうする？　不法移民の家族分離で、国内から大きな批判を受けています。この人がホームランドセキュリティ長官ですから、どうするのか？

　そして伝家の宝刀、エグゼクティブオーダーで、解決しました。親と子を離すのを止めたということです。世論に負けたわけです。

Slide 17 of 26: As SUVs continue to gain in popularity, it’s not surprising that the entry-level model of the BMW lineup would be a crossover.

　先日、うちの従業員がFordのExpeditionを買いました、中古で２万３千ドル、９万マイルの車です。彼女は前もExpeditionですでに修理しながら２０万マイルでした。買ってすぐにこんなことがありました。エンジンをかけて（温めるために）、家の中に入った、そして乗ろうとするとドアが開かない。Pシフトなのにドアが開かないのはおかしいわけです。結局、旦那が針金を使い、ドアを開けて一件落着でした。
　中古なので、キーが１つしかなかったそうです。スペアキーを用意しておくべきでしたね。それで彼女は遅刻したわけです。こういう風に見るとアメ車は欠陥車が多い。ただこの程度を欠陥だとは言わないのでしょう。
　ワランティの切れる４万８千マイルまではきちんと走れば後は知りませんよ、それがアメ車の考え方だと思います。古い車にどんどん乗られては会社は儲かりませんよ。
　したがってこのJDパワーの品質調査の結果はあまり信じられません。Dodgeの車、アメ車の中で最低ランクです。トヨタが９０点とすればDodgeは５５点前後でしかありません。

　Americans get wrong about sushi　そうなんです、８０％以上のアメリカ人が寿司を無茶苦茶にして食べています。
Slide 2 of 9: Besides making your rice fall apart because it so readily absorbs all that liquid umami goodness - using your table's entire bottle of soy sauce completely obliterates the flavors of your meal.When dippingnigirisushi - those pieces that are just a beautiful piece of raw fish sat atop a small cylinder of sushi rice - you should only dip the fish, not the rice.That way, you get the seasoning effect you want - and you also don't accidentally disintegrate the rice.ご飯を醤油につける
Slide 3 of 9: Picture this: You like the spicy kick of wasabi, and you like soy sauce - so you mix them together into a slightly spicy paste, and then dip your sushi. Maybe you do this so much that you don't even notice it anymore.On some level, you've probably noticed that mixing wasabi with soy sauce dulls the sharp heat of the wasabi. Maybe that's the effect you were going for - but see the next item on this list for more info on appropriate wasabi usage.醤油に山葵を混ぜる
Slide 4 of 9: One of the biggest differences between Japanese sushi and American sushi is that most Japanese sushi is made of extremely fresh fish. American sushi has gotten better depending on where you live - but it's still not at such a high level. That matters, because the fresher the fish, the less you have to do to it to make it taste good.Also, the Japanese aesthetic places the highest value on the natural, delicate flavors of the fish as it pairs with the sushi rice. Good sushi ricetakes years to learn how to properly prepare- accounting for the correct balance of time, temperature, and seasoning with vinegar, sugar, and salt.That means if you go to a nicer sushi place, the sushi chef - and remember, this is a highly trained professional - will likely placethe perfect amount of wasabibetween the fish and the rice. Too much wasabi blows out your taste buds, so all you taste is the heat.Respecting your sushi chef's skill also makes it more likely that you'll get the premium cuts of fish, sinceyou're obviously smart enough to appreciate it, according to First We Feast.山葵の多用
Slide 8 of 9: I lovegari- pickled ginger - so much, I have been known to snack on just that ginger by itself. When I'm eating with friends or family who don't want theirs, I will gladly take it for myself - no ginger left behind.But I also know that it doesn't belong on top of my sushi- instead, it's meant as a palate cleanser when switching between different types. がりの食べ過ぎ
ここに、ウナギソースの多用、マヨネーズの多用、辛口マヨネーズの多用があります。日本の寿司はこうして変化していくのです。味の薄いものが苦手？というか、はっきりさせたいのでしょう。中途半端が嫌いな民族ではないかと思います。繊細さ、微妙な味わいについていけないのかも。

　
　とりあえず、６０％の確率で雨が降るようです。ここで一雨降ると、野菜には良い感じです。
　昨日はランチとディナーともによく混みました、水曜日の売り上げが火曜日の２倍です。ということは火曜日が極端に暇だったということなのですが。読めないですよ。

ハワイ島は超金持ちのお忍び場所

　夕方からトミーさんとその仲間とワインバーで飲み会。なかなか面白い話を聴きました。ハワイ島で何かビジネスができるかどうかを模索しているわけですがね。 　まず、ハワイ島に別荘を持っている人のリスト、私の予想通りアメリカを代表するVIPの名前が挙がっています。 　ビル・ゲイツ、マイクロソフトの創業者で世界第2位の金持ちですね。マイケル・デル、今は落ち目ですが、DELLの創業者。ハリソン・フォードなどハリウッドの俳優たちもかなり所有しているようです。そのハワイでの資産は10ミリオンではなく、数十ミリオンのようです。10ミリオンの物件はざらにあります。 　日本人でも某パチンコメーカーの社長も推定＄１６Mの家を所有しているとか、また有名歌舞伎俳優やキムタクなどもお忍びでハワイ島に来るようです。彼らが物件を所有しているかどうかは不明ですけどね。 ちなみにそうした超高額物件も2006年を境に急落しました。＄５０Mが＄１５とかに下がったようですが、売った人もいるし、そうでない人もいるでしょう。 　有名人でも正月にハワイに来る人は多いですね。よく朝のワイドショーでインタビューを受けるような下っ端芸能人はオアフに’行くわけです。そこでゴルフするとかでしょうが、ランクの上の芸能人はそういうにぎやかでマスコミに騒がれるところを避けてハワイ島に来るのです。 　冬場になると、コナ空港はそうしたセレブのプライベートジェットで満杯になり、置き場所がないため、満杯後は横のマウイの空港を利用するようです。それだけの大物たちが、広大な敷地に住むわけですね。 　ただし、そういう人はお抱えのシェフがいるでしょうから、店に食べに行くようなことはしませんね。ということは、＄１０M以下のそこそこ金持ちや＄１M程度の普通の金持ち、いわゆる小金持ちをターゲットにしたビジネスは成り立つということですね。 　そして彼の別荘のある近くに店を構えてそこそこビジネスをしている人もいるようです。なんとなく話を聞いてみると、日本食といわれるレストランの数は１０もなし。韓国料理屋はたぶんなし、ハングルを見ませんからね。 　そして美味しい日本食を出している店は１つか２つしかないようです。Buckheadで鍛えた私の腕が通用する可能性はありそうですかね。 　そういうそこそこ金持ちの場合は、店に行くという

すでに暇モード　５月２６日（金）

 Veinteseis de Mayo (Viernes) 　やはり今週のピークは水曜日でしたね。昨日はかなり空いた感じでした。パティオは一時満席になったものの、中はガラガラでした。 　予定通り、昨日の朝はコンクリートを練ってミニ工事していましたが、重いので２袋が限界でした。また明日にでもやるかと。まあ汗はかいたのでOK！ 　たまたまZillowという不動産のサイトを見ていたら、売り出ししていない家でも「推定価格」が表示されています。それも家の前からしっかり写真まで撮ってあります。もちろん航空写真で真上からのものもありました。情報はお金だ！の世界ですね。うちは３エーカーの敷地で67万ドルに値上がりしていますね。昨年、ちょうど１０カ月前に６軒お隣で同じサイドの家が５５万ドルで売れていましたが、この家は裏庭がない。そういうことも分かります。メトロアトランタの不動産はうなぎ登り？　資産持つものはさらに富むわけです。 トヨタのＴＡＣＯＭＡ２４年モデルが公開されました。次は４Ｒｕｎｎｅｒが公開されます。同じシャーシーです。 　 一時140円をつけた為替は少し下げて139.66円で動いています。ゴールド少し戻して1953ドルです。原油も昨日下げましたが、今は少し戻し72ドル台。株はアジア上げ、欧州微下げ、NYはまちまち。まあ明日から夏休みです。やる気はない。来週木曜日が期限の債務上限問題ですが、歩み寄るしかないので、解決します。ここで上げるかと。 　しかしこの問題が解決しても、米国経済は’第１四半期で３７％の企業が業績を落とし、第２四半期でこれが拡大するなら、また下げるのでないかと。実質はリセッション入りのようです。二極分化が進み、今は富裕層の消費が頼りのようです。社会人になったばかりのZ世代とかお金はないですよ。米国民は貧しくなっている、これが現状です。 英国は昨年、約６０万人の移民を受け入れています。首相は多過ぎと言っていますが、その中には香港とウクライナが含まれています。労働市場は人手不足なので、規制はできないようです。 　しばらくなかったのに、茨城と千葉で震度５の地震が起きています。 この雨雲はあまり関係なし。今日はやや曇りで７９度ですから、最高ですね。 次の大きな雨は来週の日曜日の４０％です。 日本は台風がどうなるかです。私、雨男？なわけないんですが。 　日曜日の準備
