Hewlett Packard 5551 Inkjet Printer – Bag Markings
Warnings printed on the protective bag of the printer we set up yesterday. Surreal.

Dead and Bloated
Incidentally, Cosmic Buddha’s GF recently shared a scary story about a women’s restroom at the rear of a temple she visited in Thai a couple years ago. Apparently there was a dead rat floating in the barrel used for holding water used for “flushing”. She fled in abject horror but didn’t have the heart to tell the nice monk who was showing their group around the temple. Disclaimer: This temple obviously did not fall under the authority of Cosmic Buddha. We have flushing toilets at all of our temples, for both sexes.

Work Request: Bran Muffins
Sometimes working in a factory office with constipated old men really has its downs. I have been waiting to take a crap for a couple of hours now. Its not that there are no stalls free – in fact, I could have been done with my business two hours ago if that were the only concern. The big problem is the stench. The stench that even I, the veteran of a thousand outhouses ripened by the summer sun and open pits at outdoor concerts, the back of temples, etc., cannot bear for more than two seconds.

It’s 4:00 in the morning…
I get the strangest notions in my head about what would make an interesting subject at those godforsken hours.

Bright Lightbulb
The lamp next to my bed is powered with Chinese electronics and a Russian lightbulb that burns long into the night, a veritable beacon of perestroika.

Taro’s Earring Display
Taro’s judgement is getting a little questionable. This is strictly swap meet material IMHO, but he’s displaying it at Bill’s. Heh.

Looking over this site’s stats, the most common queries are: buddha a like rose smelling i am japanese cosmic of yoshida japan in nicknames and the salaryman food clothes justin rapper what blog higo that on photo do me cheap Now that is pure poetry. It starts out like the first song of the first (and best) STP album and ends with “do me cheap.” Ah, yeah.

My Brother, Adam Yoshida…
Will be amused to find that his name is the domain of a guy who “surpasses Rush Limbaugh for zealousness and Ann Coulter for madness.” www.adamyoshida.com LOL. Even their middle initials are the same (Adam Teiichi Yoshida / Adam Takao Yoshida). I have a serious beef with the Yoshida Sauce dude, too. What a sellout with that chop suey font and “you sooo fonny meesta!” photo. Bite MY cracked peppercorn teriyaki, foo. Although I do want a pair of Justin boots and a select few of the bags offered by Yoshida Kaban (although their website sucks fanny pack; try here to see an otaku fan site of their products).
