I’m pretty sure that in order for something to be printed, published or otherwise released to the public in Japan, it must first pass through a tribunal of government workers, all of which are between the ages of 8 and 18, to first give the product a stamp of being ‘cute’ or not.

It often takes quite a lot to startle me, to make me look twice or to simply break my mind but once in a while I see something that  I simply cannot comprehend without taking another look and starring at it.  These two gentlemen are such cases and luckily enough for me, they were kind enough to let me take their picture.

I was as surprised as you probably are to see this at the local ?????? (Itoyokado Supermarket).  It’s the infamous bread in a can which as I soon found out after purchasing, is very tasty.  I don’t know how well it would do if sent into space and kept for a long period of time but I can tell you that it’s the first raisin-bread that I’ve been able to enjoy.

From time to time, people need to cut loose, have a few too many drinks and go out and have some fun.  Well, I went out and had some fun, had a few too many drinks but didn’t get the chance to cut loose.  Either way, I had a blast at my good buddy Kaz’s birthday.  Even though the images are a little old, happy birthday Kaz, hope you have a great one.
