Experiences lead to experience. I'm Marc, and I'm back in Japan working hard and hardly working. The train is all fueled up and the conductor looks like he has ants in his pants, so saddle up and lock and load your sensory perceptions for a ride that is going to make you wish you never even bought a ticket. Tuesday, February 28, 2006. I have been nominated by Mcmaster University to go on an exchange. Now I just need to wait to find out:. 1) which university I've been nominated to go to. I'm a big boy.

Lots of 2nd and 3...

Sagas of Saga: February 2010
http://sagasofsaga.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html
Scary Japanese Toys 日本の怖いおもちゃ. As seen in a claw vending machine at a mall near you:. Bits and pieces of Gloomy the magic bear! No idea what these are, but they look like blood parasites of some sort. Maybe actual size. Not sure about this fella either, but he seems to be a communist. I wanted him SO BAD (not in that way) but I suck at claw games, and they only give you one chance. Anyway, like I said, I've never seen it but I've worked out a pretty complex back-story in my head that I'll share sometime.

Sagas of Saga: October 2009

On Host Clubs, Racism and Robotics. This is a pretty snazzy little documentary by Japanese-American Adam Yamaguchi for the show "Vanguard". Usually when I see Westerners talk about Japan about TV, especially when they talk about major cultural differences like femmy men pouring drinks for yuppie spinsters, or the emergence of robots in the workplace, they present it as being extremely weird-yet-common place (in a "that's so Japanese". Ie the boonies), but I've never seen a robot in. Japan Not once, ever.

London 2012 Mascots Look Like Vortigaunts. Former Saga resident Charlene posted in her blog. About London's lovable. eh. well, shiny Olympic mascots for the 2012 games, Wenlock and Mandeville. Which I believe are named after the finger puppets from Salad Fingers. I realized, though, that I'd seen them somewhere before. It's been bugging me all day, but as soon as I got home today it hit me like a sack of oranges. Wenlock and Mandeville, Mascots. Game series aliens, the Vortigaunts.

Sagas of Saga: How to Count Flying Bunnies in Japanese
http://sagasofsaga.blogspot.com/2010/10/how-to-count-flying-bunnies-in-japanese.html
How to Count Flying Bunnies in Japanese. Of 'em. There's nothing outstandly difficult about learning these besides volume, but there are a few irregularities. One such irregularity is the counter for birds. Which is 羽. One bird is 一羽, two is 二羽, and so on. This counter, however, is also used by one mammal: rabbits. And why is that? According to anglo Wikipedia. Ever heard 'You can't eat rabbits, but if it's a bird, it's okay? Rabbits, cows, pigs, birds. And fish: you can't eat any of them! 12300;仏教的にR...
