Bike Parking and Public Sleeping

One of my colleagues recently moved to Japan.  He also writes a blog and I have enjoyed watching him become fascinated with a lot of the things that I was initially fascinated me when I first moved to Japan.  I remember the first time I encountered a vending machine with the options; Yes, No, Bunny.  It seemed odd, strange and confusing.   Now I am suspicious if I don’t see a cute little character.    Can this machine be trusted?   He also writes on a lot of business topics so I thought I would share.

For me it is a nice reminder of some of the things I have started to not notice anymore.

Make sure to check out his blog.

I got an email from a reader and he shared a link to his blog.   I get send a lot of links to look at but I really like David’s site.  Interestingly in his mail he said we could not be more different shooters which I tend to agree.   The same goes for our sites.  I hate sites with music and typically click away right away but for some reason his just works for me.  He shoots all film.  Make sure to check out ‘Now, See This…‘

Gambaru Japan.   This guy is funny.

がんばろう日本！　この人おもしろいです。

I saw this poster every day last week.  This guys face makes me laugh.   This is an ad for video game maker GREE’s new mobile game GET!.

おもしろいポスターです。せんしゅうまいにちみました。この人のかおはおもしろいです。　ゲット！　GREEのあたらしいけいたいゲームです。

Disney knows how to go local…

ディズニーは日本をりかいしています。。。

This movie looks good… It has Denzil, guns, fast cars…where is the pretty woman?

このえいがはおもしろそうです。。。デンゼルがいます。　じゅうがあります。　はやいくるまがあります。　火があります。　きれいなおんなのこはどこですか？

Nakameguro… I miss living in this place.

中目黒です。　まえにすんでいたところです。なつかしい。　中目黒はすんでいたときすきでした。

Bike Parking… expect a long post coming on this.

And another on ‘public sleeping’…   Well this was more like ‘public intoxication’.   It was 7AM and he was passed out cold.

あさ７じですよ！　すごいよっぱらちゃいました。。。

This guy standing and sleeping in place.  I have seen other photos of this guy so I think he is a bit ‘famous’…

The police didn’t seem to notice or care about this guy…

I’ll be getting my film from the photowalk back from Popeye on the 16th so look for some images shortly after…

Thanks for stopping by today…
