Those are homegrown mnemonics that I made up that worked for me, not ones created by Koichi. :)

I should add that I intend to start living and working in Japan sometime in the next 1 or 2 years.  Ever since I took a class on Japan in college on a whim I’ve been fascinated with the country and its culture!  I discovered anime after I started learning Japanese but now thoroughly enjoy it… and they’re a great listening exercise for learning Japanese!  That’s my excuse, anyway.
