This proves what I said about Japan being a weird place full of people who have weird imaginations but  it is not as weird as what westerners imagine it to be.

Exhibit one is the artwork below sent in by Randall Myers, an alert reader, who found this on the Cheese Grater UK:

Randall asks, "Mike, is this from Japan? What does the Japanese say?"

Sorry, Randall, my friend. This is definitely another piece that is a figment of some westerners twisted (but kinda funny) imagination. While that looks like Japanese Katakana on the left, it is not. It doesn't say anything as far a I can tell.

It just "looks" Japanese.

Thanks to Randall Myers for sending this. I do appreciate it.

Thanksgiving Time in Japan

It's almost Thanksgiving time in Japan.

In Japan we don't really celebrate Thanksgiving like people in the USA do. I 've been here so long that I can't remember anymore but it seems to me that Americans celebrate Thanksgiving on the third Thursday of November.

In Japan, November 23rd is, "Rinro Kansha no Hi" (Labor Day) and it is a national holiday.

Thanksgiving has always been my favorite holiday. I think it is best because we don't have to fight crowds at department stores buying cheap trash for people we don't even like like we do at Christmas. Thanksgiving is just sitting around and drinking and eating too much... That and watching the Detroit Lions get the shit kicked out of them every year....

Christmas sucks because we have to go out and buy crap for people we don't really like... Remember? Like that shit necktie you bought at the last moment for your uncle two years ago? What a waste of time and money. You know, they say "it's the thought that counts?" Hell, you put zero thought into that purchase.

You know uncle hates that necktie even more than that awful cologne that you gave him for his birthday last year.

Oh yeah, did I mention that I hate buying presents for birthdays too?

Anyway, so, since there is no long holiday on the third Thursday of the month in Japan and no football on TV; no shopping at packed shopping malls; no mom & dad fighting about how to make a turkey; no uncle getting too drunk to walk; and no older brother too stoned to associate with family members anymore, we celebrate Thanksgiving at the Rogers house in Japan on Labor Day, November 23rd.

That's my iPhone there in front of the turkey so you get an idea
as to the size of this bird.

Anyhow... I just got back from the International super and bought a turkey. It weighs in at 4.77 kilograms (10.5 pounds) and cost ¥3,900 ($46.67 USD). Including tax, that comes to ¥4,095 ($49.00).

A 10 pound turkey might seem tiny to those of you in the west, but, in Japan it is pretty big as we don't usually have huge ovens like American homes do. Most Japanese dwellings don't even have an oven. This one is just right for our oven.

Compared to the USA, is this very expensive?

Don't Fly to the United States! Boycott All American Based Carriers Too!

I have to admit this: I hate flying to the USA. I've hated it since 2001.

Why? Because I'd thought that America and Americans had gone completely out of their minds. But, now, I rejoice as people are getting fed up with being abused by goons at American airports.

I say "Boycott all American airlines and carriers and boycott flying into the USA until they stop this molestation of passengers." American based airlines have the duty to protect their passenger's safety and make their service enjoyable. But they are not doing that at all.

How could any of these carriers make the claim that they are concerned for passenger safety and comfort when they allow their customers to be abused both mentally, physically and sexually? The American based carriers are the ones who have the political and economic power to stop this TSA nonsense, yet they do nothing.  They must demand that their customers be treated as customers or we, as customers, must take our money elsewhere.

Until the American based carriers start attending to their business at hand; caring for customer comfort and safety - and start treating passengers as valued guests -  then BOYCOTT all American-based carriers; United Airlines, Continental, American and Delta Airlines. Stop using these airlines. If you absolutely must fly into the USA, use a foreign based carrier.

Spend your vacation money on a country that welcomes you as a treasured visitor - not like the USA that treats you like a savage.

Do not fly from Japan to the USA. Do not fly on any American-based airlines.

The boycott has begun and not a minute too soon.

From Lew Rockwell:

Grassroots Rebels, Stay on the Ground!




Wow, but the fur – and clothing, and screeners’ hands – are flying at airports, aren’t they? Yee haw! Christmas came early this year for those of us who hate the Transportation Security Administration (TSA), who have prayed for nine long years that the good Lord would smite it from the face of the earth, who can’t wait to take to the skies again once LaWanda and her porno-scanners roast in Hell.

Not that I want to look a gift-horse in the mouth (yet another reason the TSA will never employ me since its perverts eagerly peer everywhere), but might I ask what took so long? Those Americans willing to toleratea stranger’s rubbing the back but not the front of his hands over your body, enlighten me: why does a warrantless search violate your liberty, dignity, and modesty now, but a year ago, as you stood coatless, shoeless, and spread-eagled, it was merely an inconvenience – or, far worse, the price we paid for "security" and a "free" society?

Screen capture of TSA monitor screen saver

The TSA has eviscerated liberty, dignity, modesty and everything decent since Day One. And before 9/11, it was the FAA conducting the massacre: recall that its high-flying dictators mandated checkpoints for rifling our luggage and forcing us through magnetometers without warrants. Remember ticket agents interrogating us about whether we’d packed our own bags ("You know, ma’am, hmmm, I think I had the upstairs maid handle it this time"), again per the FAA’s imbecilic dictates? And no, none of this approaches the TSA’s utterly incredible sexual assaults, but anyone who understands government could have discerned the embryonic bureaucracy and its abuses lurking in the FAA’s stranglehold. A people that allows the State to impede their travels with silly questions and unconstitutional searches has no logical argument against such lunacy’s going naked.

So while it’s refreshing, inspiring, and monumentally gratifying to see the country finally awaken to the atrocities synonymous with governmental control of transportation, where were these folks in November 2001, when the grotesque liar and torturer George Bush signed the legislation empowering TSA? The seeds of every outrage the agency has committed lay in that wicked law. Where were they when the TSA preyed on Nick Monahan and his family in 2002? When its deviants groped well-endowed women in stairwells at Reagan National and assaulted Phyllis Dintenfass in Wisconsin in 2004? When entertainer Patti LuPone complained that "a screener was all over me with her hands" after the TSA forced her to disrobe? When two air marshals slaughtered Rigoberto Alpizar in December 2005? When screenersfelt up nuns, stole snacks from little old ladies, humiliated crippled children and amputees?

What a lesson on Pastor Martin Niemöller’s famous warning, "They came first for the Communists,
and I didn't speak up…" Passengers docilely standing in line, keeping their heads down, complying with the TSA’s humiliating orders, desperately hoping to make their flights without a bully’s picking on them. 
And the price of all this? Turning a blind eye as the TSA’s whores – what else do we call sluts who put their hands between people’s legs for pay? – savaged yet another victim, screamed at yet another confused, infrequent flyer, yanked yet another older man’s pants down, compelled yet another mother to drink her own milk. Tolerate these offense against your fellow serfs, and before long Our Rulers have their hands down your britches, too. That’s the nature of government.

Meanwhile, some slaves are still debating whether the TSA’s sexual assaults are truly sexual assaults. They earnestly ask whether we can call them that if the courts disagree. Or say a whore’s fondling of your toddler doesn’t conform in all details to the legal definition of "sexual molestation": should we still use that term? God save us from such wretched cowardice and serfdom, that we actually dismiss government’s attacks on us and our families if twits in black robes tell us to.

Don’t expect the criminals in Congress, the leeches whose lavish lives we fund, the gutless wonders more concerned with their campaign contributions and cronyism than with the babies in utero the porno-scanners will deform, to defend us from the monster they’ve unleashed. Jason Chaffetz (R-UT) was out there pooh-poohing the fine work of James Babb and George Donnelly at We Won’t Fly: "[Chaffetz] says he still has many concerns about the full-body scans but says Americans should object through Congress, not to TSA agents. And especially not on such a busy travel holiday," as our two heroes are urging us to do next Wednesday, November 24, on National Opt-Out Day. "‘I just think there’s a better, smarter way to do it than protesting and missing your flight home to grandmother’s place for Thanksgiving,’ Chaffetz said Tueday [sic]." Yeah, and there were probably better, smarter ways to overthrow tyranny than crossing the Delaware in the middle of a blizzard at night. But, hey, Jas, a patriot’s gotta do what a patriot’s gotta do.

As if this political insider would ever in a billion years want to, he added, "[National Opt-Out Day]’s not the way to change the system." Wanna bet, you bozo?

Not to be outdone is Rep. John "Never Held A Job In Aviation in My Life, But Heck if Such Colossal Ignorance Will Keep Me From Dictating to the Industry" Mica (R-FL). He’ll "soon be chairman of the House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure" and is also "one of the authors of the original TSA bill." Mica’s forever scolding the TSA while simultaneously voting it more money and power. His solution to whores’ molesting children? Nope, not jail-time, you optimist, you. Instead, he’s "recently written to the heads of more than 150 airports nationwide suggesting they opt out of TSA screening" and hire "private" screeners – who will still "work [sic] under federal supervision." Oh, yeah,biiiiiig difference. Yo, John: let’s try outsourcing Congresscriminals next.

But for sheer, "I’m-so-scared-I-just-wet-my-pants" contemptibility, it’s hard to beat Sen. Joe Liebermann (Israel – sorry, Independent, CT). "I think perhaps the reaction to the pat-down procedures got ahead of TSA's or the department's description of what you were doing and why you were doing it," he quavered to John Pistole, Prostitute-in-Chief at the TSA. Aw, come on, Joe: we taxpayers aren’t nearly as stupid and craven as Pistole the Pervert and you.

Joe also deems groping and ogling "necessary for the security – homeland security of the American people." Don’t you love it when a guy married to "the child of a Holocaust survivor" parrots Hitler’s terminology?

Mention of Nazis always reminds me of Janet "Big Sis" Napolitano for some reason. Catch her insouciance as she and her gang of whores destroy other people’s companies (Ok, they’re only lousy airline corporations in bed with the Feds, but still…): "‘if people want to travel by some other means,’ they have that right."

For now, at any rate: a government that can require us to buy medical insurance could require us to buy airline tickets, too. Look for Our Rulers to pass Obamatravel once they destroy aviation as thoroughly as they did medicine.

So take Big Sis’s advice while you can. Boycott aviation until the TSA is abolished. Don’t fly.

Japanese Boys Learn Crime Techniques From YouTube

Who says that the Internet doesn't teach kids things? On YouTube, there are "How to" videos for just about anything and everything under the sun. My favorite is "You Suck at Photoshop" (and I do too!).




Well, here's the story of two boys who have learned how to be criminals from YouTube. From Mainichi  News:


Two teenage boys who broke into cars by mimicking techniques posted on video sharing site YouTube have been arrested, police said. A 15-year-old and a 16-year-old, students of a private high school offering correspondence courses, stand accused of theft. Both have reportedly admitted to the allegations, police said. According to the Metropolitan Police Department (MPD), the duo teamed up with another 16-year-old boy to break the window glass of two cars at a parking lot in Tokyo's Hachioji by burning them with a powerful lighter sometime between Sept. 12 and 13.


What the? OK... So I did a simple YouTube search for "How to Break Into a Car" and, sure enough, here is one (there were lots of them!).... Please don't try this at home!


How to Break Into a Car





Now, if there were just a Youtube video for "How to Win a Million Dollars" I'd be in Fat City!
