168 - Ready To Roll Out


Part of the Toshiba Ninja Kame members ready to hit Tokyo. From left to right:
Derek (Hong Kong/Canada)
Felix (China)
Melissa & Matthieu (France)
Thomas (US)
Javier (Well guess)

Shibuya, Harajuku, Yoyogi koen, made wonderful pictures, and guess what , I won't show 'em.

Plug: Make sure you check out Felix's Picasa albums, they are AMAZING. He's a hobbyist with some huge lenses, and all sort of tricks producing postcard quality pictures. And the greatest - he licenses his photos under Creative Commons, so you can use his pictures on your blog, or whatever, just make sure you write his name and link his albums! Yeah, and you shouldn't sell them!

The first moment Ohno san (right) seemed utterly happy during the trip.

116 - Jungle Speed


A great game featuring the Totem and some cards with mind-numbingly similar figures. You show your cards in turns, and in case you have the same card as someone else, you fight, and the first one to get the Totem gives his card to the loser.

On the picture Matthieu is trying to bend the rules referring to the manual, which is in French, so he thinks he can get away with it. Ha! He will never underestimate my language skills again.

114 - Retrokonomiyaki


That's right, food again. We are fixing some okonomiyaki, which can be translated as "I was lazy, so you fry it". Okay, so it is some sort of dough bit like pancakes, you mix it with meat, weird stuff people find in sea known as seafood, and some even weirder stuff called vegetables, which is apparently something animals eat, I mean the species not smart enough to figure out during thousands of billions whatever years that eating other animals makes you stronger, since you get their soul.

So usually you get everything separately, so you can fry it yourself, it's supposed to be fun. Fun, yeah, sure. Perhaps for people without computers. Anyway, the fun part was when we finished eating, so that we had a biiig flat hot surface, some ice cubes from the drinks, and a bunch of chopsticks, which means: ice hockey madness!

BTW you all know that ice hockey, originally invented by the Brits, was meant to be played like this, on a huge field of white-hot metal, and ice cubes strapped to the players feet, but when adopted by the Americans, they made it "safer", and obviously less fun. (You pussies). Same with the rugby: if your grunts in Iraq would wear the same amount of kevlar as an american-football player you'd have far less casualties for crying out loud! What is it with the football anyway, there's one kind of football, and it's soccer.

What I wanted to say: that's how you make okonomiyaki.


Boy, what a silly post. Funny how you can make über-düper shitty pictures almost okay by screwing around with contrast and colors. Actually I sort of like this picture.

103 - The Most Glorious Human Invention


My friend Bridget described mail as the most glorious human invention. Indeed, it is.

So I got this package from my girlfriend, Rita. She made me an amazing tee-shirt, (of which I have to remind myself to take a picture) and sent it accompanied by some goodies (yes, Hungarian sweets) and a letter!

Boy, I can hardly believe it: 2 days passed since my family left, my heart is still pounding in my throat, I still could not digest this awesome experience, and now this! A package for me, with the work of her little hands, filled with all the love she has! I'm being LOVED! How awesome is that.

Thank you. Thank you for visiting me, and thank you for sending me stuff. Am I getting sentimental? I'm getting sentimental. Hell, thanks, anyway. ;-)


BTW, check Brieggy's blog: Nő Experience (pun intended) She's teaching English and German in Gyula, a small town in Hungary. Her journal about continuous waves of cultural shock and crazy Hungarians is hilarious.

67 - Zoli Doesn't Share Drinks!


Ha azon kevesek közé tartozol, akiknek leesett a Jóbarátokos utalás, akkor veregesd magad vállon. (Szerintem nekem sem ment volna)
