I have a BUNCH of old pics that I have snapped over the years that I figure I should do something with, since I took many of these pics for the express purpose of sharing with others. I will group them together by theme, especially in cases of pics taken at different times and locations, the details of which my already-halfway-senile brain is hard pressed to remember. So to start....Let's very make play the Engrish!!
Restaurant Anytime... unless it is before 9:00 A.M. or after 8:00 PM...in which case you're screwed.
I am a former United States Marine, and have been interested in Japan's culture and martial arts since I was a kid. My passion for Budo is all my Dad's and Chuck Norris' fault! I started formal training (versus playing Ninjer with my brother and I beating the shit out of each other in the back yard) when I was 14, and I have kept at it spiritually , if not always physically, ever since. I have a shodan in an Americanized/mongrelized karate style that I am reluctant to mention, but through which I have met some really good people, a few squirrels/goofballs as well, but they just keep life 'interesting'...
I have a Nidan in Kyudo, and am currently training in Aikido and Mugai-ryu Iaido, all of which means....jack squat, just that I need to train more!!
