Japanese SouvenirsI usually give my friends those free tissue paper packet (ads for High Speed internet, cellphone service... etc...) I got on the Akiba street as souvenirs... :-P
A week in Tokyo 2I saw kobe beef being served as "sushi styled". Always wanted to try when I was in Japan, but places serve this kinda dish usually very expensive.
Tokyo Street PerformanceWhy they don't like people to performance in Tokyo Streets? They don't want people to gather around and block the street?
Hey Danny, did you ever get stopped by the police or get "talked to" when you wear the Stomtropper suit and walk around public...
Japanese MaidsDanny, can you gives us more detail on what is happening? Is that girl just like one of the maids in Akiba giving out fliers and trying to get more attention? Why is she doing that?
Japan FuelGas stations in California are usually self-serve. One thing I hate about some gas pump is it will stop after you tried to pump 1-2 gallons into the tank and u KNOW AS A FACT that your tank is empty. Then you keep pressing on the lever, and it keep s...
Leopard Japan LaunchHave a friend still going to school and got the Leopard for $69+tax! :-D
Installed and one of the feature I like the MOST is Time Machine!
They also have built-in translator, haven't tried it yet.
Japanese CultureAlways pay seperately.... but sometime... which happens quite often with some of my coworker, when we go to lunch, ALWAYS short on the amount... ALWAYS paid their meal without including the tax and tips... grrrr..... @_@
Tokyo RamenRamen is probably my fav food!
I LOVE ramen, with passion!!!!
Sometime I eat ice-cream AFTER I eat my ramen, but not WITH my ramen.
I always wonder will I get bored if I eat ramen everyday... agrrr... probably not... haha...
Tokyo Real EstateAt least for renting, in the US, we have Equal housing opportunity law. By law, people cannot discriminate anyone for renting or buy a house.
Japanese Food MenusI also love their "fake" food samples by the entrance to the restaurant.
I also love the way that they always will try to make the dish looks exactly the same as the picture on the menu.
The "kaisen-don" on the picture makes me salivate.
Mac OS X LeopardI will try it out at the local Mac Store before I jump in. I don't know if Leopard will fully compatible with Parallel or other apps. Also, I would like to know how's the native 64-bit support will do (like getting over 3GB memory barrier on my MBP,...
Japanese PhonesAny phone you showed on this news are MUCH better looking then ANY phone here in US, including our OMG, "out of the world amazing" iPhone.
I still don't get besides the touch screen, what is so "great" about the iPhone in here. Slow EDGE network, bu...
Japan RoadworksThat's how quality job can be done when people take their job seriously.
Rather than just work for 8 hrs, don't care about anything except for $$$. (That is me... hahaha)
Japanese CarsI think I am spoiled by the spacous parking space in California.
I have VERY BAD parking skill, especially parallel parking, or backing up into a parking spot... I guess I will not drive in Japan... or only if I own a body shop to spray paint my car...
Kentucky JapanKFC is not that bad in California.
Not that I love them, but once in a long while (twice a year) is okay.
They have this oven in Japan uses super heated Steam, and they claim it can squeeze out oil from the super heated steam "baking" process.
One...
Japanese MannersSeems like China is also doing the same kind of "education" program right now... Probably because of the Olympics... humm....
I think in the US, by law (at least in California), people have to give the seats close to the exit to disabled person on a...
Japanese Law EnforcementThe "e-cop" @ Koban sounds very helpful when asking for directions.
I have countless experience on asking directions in Japan with a cop.
Seems like the machine has a "Printout" slot, that comes into handy when the direction to a places gets compli...
TGS 2007Nice to see you back Danny!
When you say "Pretty much jet lagged and am on reserve energy"... It reminds me of Ultraman with the blinking light when he is @ "reserve energy" mode... hahaha

Japanese ManualsMost of the manuals I have are still plastic bag.
Not trying to be smart by not reading them, but most products (like TV and Oven) are pretty easy to use and I am just TOO LAZY to go thru them.
