We do have the jury system here in the US and I just had to serve on jury duty for a drunk driving case. Despite my best effort to be excused from the case, since I'm self employed and get no income when I don't work, the judge said that only if it w...
Thanks for the post, Danny. It reminds me of how civilzed,organized and enjoyable it is going to the movies in Japan. That is except for the "git" with the necklace. I'm surprised you had to confront him to stop the noise. That's very un-Japanese of...
I always have a camera with me, especially when I'm in Japan. Good cameras can fit in your pocket, so it's relatively easy to be ready for opportunity. I hadn't thought others would be interested until seeing your site, Danny. Thanks for the motivati...
Thanks for the post, Danny. Amazing! How does he make those all sounds with his mouth? He must have spent hours and hours learning all that, not to mention getting the rythm down.
Thanks for the post, Danny. This is an insprational story for sure! Bringing his dream to fruition, the look on his face tells it all; like a kid in a toy shop.
Nice Spring rearrangement in the office! Looking at the figures on the shelves above the desk though, I wonder if during the next earthquake will they fall or are they stuck with something like "Quake Hold Gel"? (Amazon has it and maybe Tokyu Hands.)...

Nice pix, Danny. I've been to Kamakura a few times and find something new each time. It's a fascinating place with alot of history. I think the green train in the photo is the local Enoden. I love the train. It passes within inches of buildings along...
Nice pix of Hakone. I've been there acouple of times in the fall and it is gorgeous then too. It's the kind of place you can visit over and over. Delcious kuro tamago and awsome scenery...
Men don't need makeup! My dermatologist recommends that I use a daily moisturizer and sub block for my northern European skin, but even that is hard to do.
I miss the seasonal Meiji Rich Maccha Chocolate. Seems you can only get that for a few weeks at the end of the year in Japan or you have to have it shipped out via Jlist. Shipping really makes for an expensive treat though. Like the comparison of th...
Brilliant idea. It looks like an extension of the "unit bath" idea. These could probably be used for emergency housing after an natural or not so natural(Kim Jong ill and his missles!) disasters.
