Random Things

I found some interesting items, this is the Robertson family crest. Are those blue tongued devil boar? Someone get this tattooed on their body... A Yamaha trials bike, I've seen a few trials bikes on the streets. These are designed for climbing rocks. The cleanest, most organized homeless population on the planet. Landscaping outside Shinjuku Center, looks hard to maintain.

I noticed the same thing about Japanese homeless: how organized they are. Although, when I went to Japan (in the late nineties), I was so used to the perception that Japan was kicking America's butt economically, I was surprised just to SEE homeless people.

Sammy, I think my post probably fits best under random. Lee forwarded me the link today. Your courage has always amazed me and I know this experience will change your life. I will keep reading for sure. Your own version "Lost in Translation," I guess. That was cliche but hey?
