Only in Japan ...

... do I have to travel 2 hours (each way) to Tokyo to get pumpkins for an English Club activity.

... can you buy a $100 pumpkin.

... are there so many trains I can't find the right one home.

... am I unable to get a seat all the way home whilst carrying aforementioned pumpkins.

... is the epic Red Sox/Yankees game pre-empted by crappy midafternoon TV drama shows.

... do national live US blackout rules also apply. Try watching baseball online. You can't.

... does anyone notice "President" Bush's obvious listening device during televised debates.

I ran out of things to say ...

Hell Froze Over ... Go Red Sox!

It figures the year I'm in Japan the Red Sox would make it to the World Series. 18 years (since 1986) we have all waited for this. And now, finally, after a record-breaking comeback over the evil empire New York Yankees, the Sox are going to the World Series!

Unfortunately, I had to watch the end of the game on the internet because Japanese TV sucks and they had to pre-empt the game with some really shitty drama. But hey...they'd better not do that for the Series.

Anyway ... yay!
