Where art thou, Casiotone?
All throughout university, I lusted after a Groovebox… the object of my affections has changed several times since then. Not that I have the skills or anything, I just want to watch the cow: These used to retail for $1,000 when they were available. Here’s another great video, with even more cow: I actually don’t want the OP-1, I want a dedicated cow display with maybe one button to make it chew and kick start digestion.

Devon Larratt’s Udezumo
I don’t know why this video was so enthralling after a long day at work, but I couldn’t stop watching.

Thailand’s Most Wanted
While browsing some Thai Government websites for business research, I stumbled upon this masterpiece: Here’s the original, in Thai:

Dorilocos, Frito Pies, and Papaslocas! Oh, my!
Why haven’t I heard about this until today? My new mission: Create an equally delicious Northeastern Thai version without ever having tried the original: Yam Praduk foo, pork rinds, gummy worms, and blood sausage cubes thrown together in a bag of Banana Party snack chips! Maybe I need to spend some more time planning first.

RIP Gaijin Shacho Hero Dude
Dear Nissan,Now that you have ousted Carlos-sama, can you please stop making horrendous cars?For example, no Skyline is worth a million dollars. Period. But this isn’t even trying: Now, it’s rumored that you gangstabbed your Caesar in the back because he wanted to fully merge Nissan and Renault, but really, at this point you need to look at Renault’s current product lineup compared to yours. Although many Renault products look quirky, they are at least generically modern, while Nissan’s look like they were designed in North Korea: It’s not necessary for you to compete with everybody on all fronts, but please, stop making ugly-ass cars. Please go back to your…

Sunset Cast
We visited a nearby reservoir, Kaeng Loeng Chan (they really need to simplify the official English spelling), on the weekend. They were holding a work rally to cover the newly-created Health Park with grass sod and quite a few people showed up to volunteer (or as a Thai would say, to make merit). We got bored of the manual labor after less than an hour and walked around the banks of the reservoir instead, taking photos and looking at dead crabs. The water seems too murky and oxygen-depleted to support fish close too shore, but they must be out there somewhere. Maybe I’ll take the kids fishing out there sometime.

Cast Iron Pizza
We went all in with Kenji on this one:Foolproof Pan Pizza RecipeNew York-Style Pizza Sauce Recipe Actually, for the sauce, I added filtered fish sauce, tripled the amount of garlic, and used the good part of a rotting onion instead of going to the store to buy a fresh one, and it turned out really, really well. I tried using a cast iron Lodge pan and an aluminum baking pan, and the latter was predictably much inferior to the former because the crust stuck to it pretty badly. In Thailand, any cheese is expensive, and the one called for in the recipe is unavailable where we live, so we used…
