    yomiuri television sucks rooster

    January 27, 2009 /

    …and by rooster, I mean the big purple-headed veiny one. The day after I embedded the youtube vid in my Missing Osaka post, they had it removed via copyright claim. If you love your IP, set it free, bitches! Show Elmo some love already! UPDATE 20090215: I embedded a new instance of the video on the post in question

    Maxie and daddy performing synchronized upper lip balancing. This is the only photo we took of him during the period he has been afflicted with the rash from roseola. Even so, this is a couple days before the rash peaked and my anti-noise filter (Noise Ninja) actually wiped it quite effectively. One of the only tricks I could perform as a kid was to curl my upper lip up far enough to block my nostrils. This was extremely handy when playing underwater and I considered it a kind of superpower (hey, when you’re a kid having even the lamest of supernormal abilities is pretty cool). Hopefully I can pass this…

    Missing Osaka

    January 22, 2009 /

    The idea being tested: Even strangers in Osaka will play along when you pretend to shoot or cut them down. Some of these seem staged; I’ve seen crazier stuff though, and if nothing else, the fact that it seems possible is why Osaka is so fucking cool. For the record, I’ve never seen this done to a stranger in Japan, but you see it all the time among friends. Come to think of it, among friends at least, everybody overacts like they’re being shot. An alternative to the standard ban! (bang!) is firing an imaginary revolver dry. That sounds something like this: ban! ban! ban! ban! ban! ban! kacha.. kacha..…

    New Years in the Fields – Preview

    January 21, 2009 /

    This is a preview to a photo series I shot during our New Years holiday. I’ve been meaning to put it together since I shot it but Max got sick and life got in the way, etc., etc., and so forth (quote from KoS). I’m now busy doing other things, but perhaps I’ll get around to it this weekend. /////////////////////// On the second day of the new year, our nanny invited us to her village for the bi-annual emptying of a communal fishpond. We piled into our trusty ’71 Crown, picked up a Japanese teacher who wanted to experience village life, and headed out deep into the rice fields. Actually,…
