Nihon no mono

I love munching on Japanese roasted peas! I think I first had these on South Congress at the Hotel San Jose, because they're free at the bar, but I just recently re-discovered them at the grocery store. These are the hot variety with wasabi, and they're fantastic to chomp on with beer (watching anime, of course). I love it when I get a surprise jolt of wasabi that clears up my nose!

It's cool that Anime Channel On Demand is on cable now, but I can barely watch it because of the bad dubbing. I guess they really do try to do a good job and make it entertaining, but the original Japanese voices are just ten times better. Guess I just have to keep renting DVDs, but it's nice to have a way to preview things to see what I might like.

Here's a few plugs for Japan-related sites (that you probably already know about if you read WEBmikey). My pals Matt & Kumiko live in Osaka and Matt tells their adventures on Moon Station Foxtrot. My pal Barron sells his cool photography, and tons of the pictures are of Japan. Finally, I've been meaning to mention this story (written by someone Matt knows) for a long time, because I just about pissed my pants laughing when I read it. It's really creamy!
