Sorry…
Posted by Marc under Japan Wierdness
I apologize for updating this blog only once a week. Believe it or not, I’m actually doing things here that involve me “going outside”, I think is the correct term. I was berated recently for not providing you, the eager readers, with more cool stuff from Japan. So, without further ado, here are a bunch of random cell phone pictures. My favorites: “Madeline Ave.” and “Hey, you, isn’t it tasty? Don’t you dare say that.”

How will we explain to the children why we have to electrocute the hippo’s tooth? Can’t you once think of the children before you post?

Whoa! so I don’t look at the blog for a few weeks and all of a sudden he’s climbing mount fuji and all? go marc, go marc!
So my personal favorite has gotta be the hippo - it does NOT want me to visit the dentist however…

Hey, you’ve got a Hanshin Tigers jersey on there - do they still suck?

Actually, the Hanshin Tigers are ROCKING this year. This is the year they are going to the top - and people here are going totally nuts. It’s great! Also, that wierd looking electrical thing is a hand dryer. It works very well.

“Hey, you, isn’t it tasty? Don’t you dare say that.”
I totally believe that Japanese people talk like that, even when they’re speaking Japanese; this is merely a very good translation. It explains a lot about their culture.
