Today’s lunch
But I don’t think this is the bustling station in NYC. Pentel made a coffee shop in the Nihonbashi area of Tokyo. Cute naming I suppose….
Literally, 40 stories up. Notice Tokyo Sky Tree coming up in the background.
I suppose this is what I would look like if I stayed out late drinking on a weeknight and got the last train home.
Nikon advert in the Seoul Subway near Myong Dong. Japanese companies still have a few things going for them.
As you see these buildings demolished to build new ones, I wonder with dwindling Japan birth rates… who is going to work there?
We’re in the business of building but our team, was glad to see the old building ripped down.
Quick trip to Osaka. A bit different from the Tokyo feel. The people seem to be a bit more expressive.
A bit hotter than Kanto, but the architecture, streets, and layout of the city and the public transportation looks the same.
No bright green or yellow taxis in Osaka. They all seem to be black.
Tokyo probably rocks for great food.
But wait! I arrive at the hotel.
Many nice things waiting in the room to welcome you in Osaka!
Wish I had some family members here to enjoy the food with.
Ever had you stomach jump up to your mouth? May sound strange, but I think that happens when you have a near tragic experience.
This morning my wife drove myself and two of my children to the station. I was sitting in the front seat and could see everything that was happening.
The upcoming light had turned red for 2 full seconds and she continued barreling down the street ready to run the light at that busy intersection. I could see she was going to run it. Scary, as I have seen a car pulverize a man on a scooter at that same intersection. Not a good place to break the law.
I shouted, “Stop!” and thankfully she did. If she wouldn’t have, would for of us be in heaven today? I don’t know but as I write this my stomach is still in my throat.
(BrightCitizen.com) With 59% of the US public against illegal immigrants, the state of Arizona has reacted. They have enacted a law to allow law enforcement to check if people they come across on a day to day basis are legally in the United States or not.
(Reuters) – The Obama administration on Tuesday sued Arizona over the state’s strict new immigration law, attempting to wrestle back control over the issue but infuriating Republicans who said the border required more security.
The administration argued the Arizona law, which requires state and local police to investigate the immigration status of anyone they reasonably suspect of being an illegal immigrant, is unconstitutional and would sap law enforcement resources.
The Republican-controlled Arizona legislature passed the controversial law to try to stem the flood of thousands of illegal immigrants who cross its border from Mexico and to cut down on drug trafficking and other crimes in the area.
