Sometimes, you really gotta love Japan. Take this weekend as an example.

The Rites of Spring…..
No matter how many times you have done it, you simply much take pictures of the cherry blossoms. I tried to deny the force, but Mother Nature is certainly a strong woman.

Behold! The fruit of White Day!
For those of you who might not be so well acquainted with this clearly man-made, confectionary-business stimulating holiday, let me clarify.
In Japan, Valentine’s Day is a day when women profess their love and give chocolates to the men in their lives. Exactly one month later, “White Day” on [...]
If Elvis were still alive, and could grill chicken, he would be this guy.
