land of the rising sun
finally, the My First Trip To Japan Post-Infancy post.
first off, that place is nuts. especially tokyo. take every city you've ever been to, amplify them slightly, cram them all together in about a greater-LA-sized area and get rid of 99% of the homeless people: tokyo.
we got to stay with our homeboy joji at his house out in chiba city. he was also kind enough to drive us all over tokyo and nearby environs for the whole trip, joji for president.

head on over to my incredible flickr set to enjoy some shots and notes from the trip. the funny part is the first day or two were so overwhelming, we kind of forgot to take pictures... check out george's flickr for alternate views of the experience as well.
tokyo is amazing and i can't wait to go back, if you have a job opening in tokyo, hire me! nihongo wo benkyō suru totemo hayaku!

in japan
posting this from the back seat of my friend joji's car, using his 3G USB modem in my laptop. i also have my laptop set up as a wifi hotspot so george and steph can use their iphones... i love living in the future.
check my twitter for trip updates, it's just easier to post there.
tokyo is the most intense place i've ever been, it rrrreeeeeaaaaally helps having a friend who lives here to show us around. konbanwa, americajin!

jury doodie
got summoned for jury duty today and had to fill out a 33 page questionnaire. it's gonna be a while before i find out if i'm selected but if so, the trial is scheduled to start 3/1 and end 5/17... BALLS!
check this guy out, i stumbled onto his site doing a google image search for gazerbeam. as far as i can tell he customizes lego guys into heroes, super fresh. the link at the very bottom under the the description and image column will take you to more samples (once you're there, it's the left link at the bottom that continues through the archive). there's some crazy obscure heroes and villains in there.
even alpha flight!
update: here is a link to a photo gallery page, if you hate digging through tons of japanese (but it doesn't have a few of the cooler ones).
