Decided it was time to get in on the whole Twitter thing that all the kids are talking about these days. My reasoning being that there are many cool things that happen over here that aren't quite worth an entire blog post, but can literally be summed up in a 140 characters or less and hopefully updated LIVE from my mobile phone.
Something that will require one (maybe more) blog posts dedicated to it however is my friend Dave's current tour-de-force of Kansai. While he's here I intend to show him the sights, teach him the very little Japanese I know and see what sort of trouble our combined lack of Japanese and general "gaijin-ness" can get us into. A more detailed post is sure to follow with incriminating pictures, but in the mean time some highlights include;
- Dave's discovery of the wonders of conveinance stores here and the general awesome-ness of the life-sustaining oni-giri (rice-balls) they provide.
- Clinton finding Dave some awesomely nice and cheap accomodation... in the slums of Dobutsuen-mae.
- Dave's victory over some other random gaijin at foosball.
- Clinton's repeated victories over Dave at Darts.
- Butaman!
So stay tuned...

ok, i'll try again...
"oni-giri" = demon/devil/ogre/troll social obligation, (you know, like "giri choco").
I think you mean "o-nigiri" which literally means something like "honourable pressed", but in practice means rice balls. but it's weird to put a hyphen in it.
keep up the good work xoxox
oni-giri could also mean 'cut demon'
I like cut demon more.
i think I'll keep it as is, I like the idea that Dave has somehow found the awesome-ness of buying of "cut-demons" from the local 7-Eleven
