Update: It seems that Hitomi Hirayama is now offering the original PDF files on her own website (yay!). I have updated the individual list of files below but it would probably be easier to just click through to her website.
This was a great short (1-page PDF) Japanese language learning column written by Hitomi Hirayama and carried every five weeks in the Daily Yomiuri newspaper. Although the series is no longer active onl the original site, you can find archived copies. Alternatively, I have compiled all of them in a single .zip file (25.4MB) you can download from my server. Note that for some reason issue 56 is not available and I cannot find a copy of it anywhere online.
