C. Buddha's Hasty Musings

18-inch 5-stars on a jet black, pimp-ass AMG. Shit, this company must be owned by Suge Knight.

An actual raincoat for dogs, seen at Jusco in Tenri. I guess this would come in handy if you’ve shaved your pooch in preparation for eating or whatever.

This is an evil flavor of tea provided for us for free at work. On the syrup box shown here it says that it is a combination of two common types of Japanese tea, which leads me to believe that instead of washing out the pipes at the production facility in between runs of different products, they simply flush them out and sell the resulting slurry as a new product. Kind of like making a suicide Big Gulp, I guess.

This is one of the more interesting views of the factory where I work. Depressing, that.

These are decent as Japanese chocolate bars go, but my absolute favorite was a product called Woody, “Made with Corn”.

Taken at Chibo Okonomiyaki at Itoya Kado in Nara after gigantic lunch with the Sheahans.

Copping a feel at the new Itoya Kado department store in Nara. The NuBra is constantly hyped on SkyPerfect TV in between shows. Ah, the joys of television shopping!

The most meaningless lemon art I have ever seen (yes, there is meaningful lemon art). The 400 yen I paid for this coke somehow seems even less justified with this half-ass attempt at cocktail design. Of course, this was taken at the overpriced steakhouse we visited in Matsuzaka, Mie Prefecture.

Display window of Sony Store in Hep 5, Umeda.

Cruisin’ on the Dai-ni Hanna… Look out my window and what do I see?
