Strange faces peering out of shadows of the bushes. Family friend Kyoko experiencing an out-of-body experience.
Happy halloween!

(1) If you can’t afford to lose, don’t play the game of chicken.
(2) My mother always said, “look both ways before crossing the road.” (3) “It’s not the size of the cock, it’s how well he clucks!” (4) “So I said, who’s your rooster now?!” (5) “After you,” said the egg. ### Sent from my iPadRelated Posts:
“The instant noodles for an instant afro!”*
Now that’s a brand promise! Think of the possibilities of Chinese versions of ethnic brands! Jheri-Curl potato chips! Afro-Sheen soy sauce! And, of course, J-Lo Steamed Buns! ### * P.S. For you cunning linguists out there, yes, the copy actually says, “NEW! straight noodles” which I suppose is funnier than “gay noodles” but that’s another post.Related Posts:
Our local supermarket is having a promotion on Yanjing beer at CNY 1.98 per can.
Or an incredible US$0.89 (JPY 72) for three cans! Okay, that’s the case price (i.e., you have to buy 24 cans) but the last time I bought beer in Tokyo, it was JPY210 per can! Yanjing Beer is a light-bodied, crispy-finishing beer that would be perfect during the summer in L.A. or Tokyo. At 3.6% alcohol content, Yanjing Beer is less potent than Japanese beers but at this price you can drink a six pack! ### Sent from my iPadRelated Posts:
Would you trust this man to sell you a mop bucket?
I love this guy’s emo glasses, buzz cut, and definitely the it-was-cool-in the-1970s powder blue polyester jacket and bow tie. And he’s got such a sincere smile! Who could resist? And if you buy one today, they’ll throw in the surprised-looking lady in the background absolutely free! Too bad we already have a mop bucket. ### Sent from my iPad
