Par Avion
“How to ship hippopotami,” via the USPS website: LINK You see? There are better outlets for pent-up stress than spraying the whole office with military hardball and demanding your manager pull the skin off his face to show the whole world what a monster he really is.

Hunting a Downed Lockheed
Found a pretty interesting read today (via mofi): The Hunt for 928 or Has Anyone Seen This Spy Plane? Makes me want to put Taro’s jeep (currently hibernating) through the car inspection and go looking for crash sites in the mountains, for some reason. It would cost a hell of a lot more to get towed out from remote areas than in the story, though.

Modded K-car
Spotted in front of a Lawson’s convenience store. For such a small car, it made a pretty big racket with the turbo hissing. The middle-aged dude driving the car took off with a just-bought beer in hand. You could tell that he was doing what he loved to do.

GO JOE!
Oh god, I can’t stop laughing: “You didn’t whup everybody yet, Scarlett,” Stalker said. He pointed behind her with a subtle smile. She turned to find the quietest Joe of the bunch – Snake-Eyes.

1.5 Million Tons of Umami
This is a question I have asked myself many times over the years spent here in Japan: If MSG is so bad for you, why doesn’t everyone in Asia have a headache? Hell, I just had a discussion about it a few weeks ago when T asked why westerners treat MSG (found in salt shakers that adorn the tabletops of many Asian countries, right next to the soy sauce, chili paste, etc.) with such… suspicion. I told him how it’s just accepted that it’s bad stuff, but realized I didn’t know why, and decided to look into it. It’s pure coincidence that I stumbled upon this article today, and it…
