Canned Air
June 28, 2006
Japan’s 7-11 corner-stores now offers canned oxygen! If you ever feel sick, light-headed, or want to get a oxi-buzz, just stop by and purchase a can or two of some grapefruit scented oxygen. I’m sure they’ll make enough flavors for each of our district taste.

Its summer!! Yay! Time for beach and pool! Time to bust out those shorts and sandals and have a great day out just basking in the sun. But what is waiting for you just around the corner? When the sun goes down and when its hot and humid outside? GIANT Okinawan Roaches! The technical name [...]

There you have it. This year’s get up for the man. More blue this time, before it was a pinkish/redish theme. I wonder if that means anything ( ie. boy and girl ) so I’ll have to ask Hiromi about that. I also wonder if he is dressed up every holiday or just [...]

Tranquil

Outside my girlfriend’s house, I look below and I see a dog. He is wagging his tail because his owner is home. Near is the car making it’s final movements right before parking. The owner emerges from the car and moves to the gate, opens it and enters his yard. The dog moves back as [...]
Cellular
March 20, 2006
Now that I am back to Japan for the better part of the year, I decided to once again get a cell phone. This time, instead of the popular DoCoMo service, I wanted something more local bound. I wanted AU which is also used by my girlfriend, her friends, and family. This lets us make [...]
