A man with plans, man.

Tomorrow, going to Yoyogi park with some friends. There are always live musicians and other various acts who play for free on Sundays. Monday, going to see an X-league game at Tokyo Dome. X-league is Japan's NFL, and the T-Dome is ridiculously huge. I should have pics from both up some time soon.

On a side note, anyone following the U.S. elections will have heard the term "gaffe" in relation to both Biden and Palin. I for one was totally unfamiliar with it, and you may be too, so here's some info:

gaffe |gaf| noun

an unintentional act or remark causing embarrassment to its originator; a blunder : an unforgivable social gaffe.

ORIGIN early 20th cent.: from French, literally 'boat hook,' used colloquially to mean ‘blunder.’


This term was originally being used to sling mud at the Obama campaign, but all it takes is a few brief news highlights to show that Palin is not worth her salt. She has already messed up exponentially more than Biden ever has, in his much longer and more accomplished political career.
