“Men.”

iBoxer: Get yours now!

Read this:

The Play iBoxer Solid Boxer is an ideal knit boxer for trendy, gadget-savvy music lovers. Made from a cotton/spandex blend, this button fly boxer has a discrete front pocket which is perfect for holding your iPod, other mp3 players or your cell phone. This Play iBoxer Boxer is available in solid fashion colors and the solid waistband features a racing stripe and the Play logos.

Sounds like a purchase!. Nothing my other half says can stop me. She had a few things to say:

  • You are retarded.
  • Why do you need a pocket for your iPod in your underwear?
  • I guess walking around in your boxers is universal.
  • Men.
  • Are you going to keep your iPod in there when you go out?
  • You are going to have to stick your hands down your pants like this - I am not going to attempt to put into words what she did next - and look like a pervert.

KB, of Babble-On, was nice enough to point out that via these pictures I was getting closure

it’s your last memories of your commute for so many years, a milestone. Best to put yourself in those pix cuz it’ll ground you in that moment and puts things in perspective.

  • Senior Citizen.

    She usually tells me about the good ol’ days.

  • Night Workers on the Train.

    Nice way to unwind.

  • Passing Thru.

    For the life of me, I cannot remember his name. Anyway, the guy to my right is from France. He and his female friend were doing the whirlwind tour of Japan.

  • GS: Construction Worker.

    He works hard for his money.

  • GS: Family Mart.

    This was his action shot, “Make it look like I am working.” He likes to collect figurines of some sort.

  • Analog Buddy.

    Since this was my last Wednesday in Hazama, I used the digital camera output on the local 7-11 photocopier to get a print for him. I hand delivered it on my way home.

Dude, what does my tattoo say?

Your tattoo says Dude, your tattoo says sweet.

Ado, the creator of Ecto, has a Where is Wally kind of contest happening on his flickr stream. All you have to do is identify his car in a parking lot. Hint: he parks ass-end first.

Coco

I said, “Man, I need a new body.” As one does in chat. You do say things like that, don’t you? Anyway, she, coco, asked, “why?” She must have been thinking, “What an odd thing to say.” In a effort to make myself partially sane, I replied with, “this one get’s tired easy. maybe it is broken.” I thought that would be the end of he conversation.

Wrong.

Amazon.com to the Rescue.

Coco’s final words, “hold on, i will find one. you can get replacements for some parts. Spare Parts from Amazon

If only it were that easy. Yes, they are only toys

Winter Olympics.

Curling.

From the World Curling Federation.:

Curling is an extremely complex sport based around a very simple idea. Slide a stone down a sheet of ice and have it stop as near the centre of a set of rings (called house), the problem being that your opposition will do everything tactically to stop you from achieving this goal. So the game contains elements of great skill, strategy, finesse, exertion and endeavour and we promise you that the perception of a slow-paced game is just that, a perception.

CW disagrees and has come up with several events to replace curling:

  • Space Heater Event: how long can you go without opening the door to let in fresh air without passing out
  • The Bathtub Event: how hot of a bath can you get into when your feet are ice cold from the floor
  • Kerosene Pump Event: who can fill up the kerosene tanks fastest with a hand pump
  • Kerosene Carrying Event: who can get the full ones from the shed outside fastest in a blizzard
  • Firewood Event: chopping fire wood

Uniforms for these events are: PJs and a hanten.
