crap, sick again...
So, I'm sick... again... I hate being sick and it seems like this time of year it happens all too often. Maybe it's the changing season... who knows. But gotta go to work so it's time to pony up and be a man! The best thing though is that yesterday mornin picked me up some freakin chicken noodle soup!
I know it's ridiculous to think that it helps you get better, but it's just a comfort, and I crave the stuff every time I get sick, it's just hard to find it here so this is the first time I've been able to have it when I've been sick... crap, off to work...

fure~! fure~! fure~! fure~!
So as I said, I went down to Yokohama on Friday to take in my first Tigers game of the season and luckily we had a break in the weather and it was a really nice day. I went down very early and hopped in line about 4 hours before the game and there were already probably more than 100 people in line ahead of me. Tigers fans are something else. I was able to get some nice pictures of the tulips around the stadium before the game, here!

Here's where I waited in line...
it rained the day before and the ground was still pretty muddy, so I stood for about 2 hours...
Here's the line behind me. This was about 1 hour before the gates opened.
We lost, and Kanemoto waited until the next day to get his 2000th hit...
A bit disappointing, but, still fun to be out at the game!

The games are: May 1st, Hanshin Tigers vs. Yukult Swallows in Koshien Stadium, May 3rd, Hiroshima Carp vs. Yokohama Baystars in Hiroshima Municipal Stadium, and May 5th, Orix Buffaloes vs. Chiba Lotte Marines in Skymark Stadium.
Played some Kart last night against dude? and you can see the results here, and note the time... almost 3am when we wrapped it up!
Why not look at some pigeons too?

I am a "Dick"
This commercial was brought to my attention by Mr. Jace over at Chorus, Isolate, Confirm (http://jessejace.blogspot.com, a blog with a real writer!). In the CM (the 15sec version, because the 30sec version is slightly different) the people say "Buku wa..." or "Watashi wa..." with the ending being the name of the company, roughly romanized as "Dick". Priceless, and stupid. The advertising campaign is OK with the tag line "I am a HERO" but someone missed the boat with the CM.
ahhhh, spring...
Well, well, well, the weather is warming up, the flowers are blooming, you know what that means? BASEBALL! Last week, on Wednesday, Myself and my homies (mornin, meltin faces, deuce, and kangaroo Jimmy) headed down to Yokohama stadium near Kannai to take in our first game of the new season, soooo stoked! I mentioned on the show there was a lot of drinking involved, and we lost, but what an incredible feeling... being back at the ballpark. It's so natural, it's so... so... great. I love being out at the stadium. So, I talked about most of it in the podcast probably, but I wanted to share some pictures...
Here's my boys chillin down at Yamashita Koen (yeah, that's the name I couldn't come up with during the show, thanks meltin faces!)
Here they are from a little further back.
Pre-game Yokohama stadium, about 2 hours before the game, empty.
Rockin!
I love the expression on the lady behind them! Comedy Bronze!
Game Time!
Well, there you have it, that was the game, there are many more good pictures from that day, you might see some in later posts... doesn't it just scream SPRING!? Well, if not, how about a look at a some cherry blossoms? These were taken along the Meguro river in G-town!

So spring has sprung (lame) and the cherry blossoms have come and are on their way out, but baseball will be with us for 7 more months baby! This friday I'm heading back to Yokohama for my first Tigers game of the season, with another game (at Jingu) on the 20th, stoked!

more butt? head than you could ever hope for!
So, here it is, the post that everyone and their mom has been waiting for for the past year! The last of the hair updates! So, it's gonna be short in the writing, and heavy in the picture department. Lets take a journey through the last few days...
It started like this:
Me peeing. Yeah, I know, can't see much of the hair, but it's there, and you've seen it before.
Here's a look at it pulled back:
Fresh from the shower:
With the rows (courtesy of mornin):
The rows partially taken out:
Back to the goods:
Extreme fro:
Gonna save a little:
The chair, and aftermath:

And finally, this evening:
There you have it, there are many more pics, but I think I've wasted enough of your time and mine, so there you have it. I feel good!
