Have you ever taken a sniff of some kind of super-lemon-cleaning-bleach-soap and it made your saliva glands literally shoot out the saliva? Well C.C. Lemon has one of those kinds of smell.

Before taking a sip, I prepare myself for tasting the most sour thing in my entire life, but upon taking a gulp (and basically finishing off about 1/3 of the teeeeeny can), I am pleased to find that it’s not as sour as I was expecting, in fact it is somewhat bitter. The after-taste is similar to a lemon-drop candy, and the drink isn’t all that unpleasant.

Apparently this is the best drink in the world if you want to stave off scurvy. In this little 100mL can, you get 440mg of Vitamin C, equal to 22 lemons. In fact, the drinks logo is “22 lemons’ worth of Vitamin C in every can.” followed up by a bunch of Japanese that I can’t read for various reasons… namely it’s kanji.

Would I drink it again? Hrmm… that’s a very good question. I can’t say no, but I certainly can’t say yes. I guess the fact that I have two more cans of this in my fridge will answer that question for me. I’m sure if I ever get stiff joints, breath that smells like a mule’s ass and whatever else scurvy does, then at least I know I’ll be safe for another day!

Recently a buddy of mine sent me a video of him dancing at a bit of a talent show. He actually isn’t that bad at all, heck, I’d LOVE to be as good as that!

As for this, I’m just testing to see if this little script thingy works.

Yea, so we’ve been having quite a bit of rain in the last week and a heck of a lot of wind as well. On one hand, I was raised to enjoy the rain and to love storms and see them as wonders of nature, but on the other hand, it’s a big pain in the ass having to pick up after them and clean up all the debris that lands from the trees IN OTHER PEOPLE’S YARDS.

As you can see by a couple of the previous photos, the wind can be pretty severe and dangerous at times. I can only imagine what would have happened if we hadn’t pinned-down the gazebo. Perhaps it would take a nice flight over the river and into someone’s back-yard in Regina? The wind reminded me of the wind that we experienced during a big tsunami in Yokohama. It was so windy that the antenna ontop of a near-by roof fell right in the middle of the walkway while myself and Larry were walking back to the apartment!

I’ve had this tune for a very long time, either Mike or Sachi sent me a remixed modernized version of it, but this is apparently one of the originals. It is simply amazing. If anyone happens to have a collection of Denki Groove (電気グルーヴ) then PLEASE get ahold of me. Leave a comment on here or get me on MSN; redmag@hotmail

A short while ago we had a heck of a lot of rain, and this is what it looked like on the inside, the outside and then in the evening when things cleared up.
