Mothra Dead Ha Ha Ha

As anyone(if there is anyone) who has read my blog may know, I don't like Mothraaaaaaa very much, I believe Mothra to be the most unbelievable Kaiju EVER, and the stupid moth killed my buddy Gigan (which in my opinion would be impossible). So as revenge I have been playing Godzilla Save The Earth on the XBOX and using every monster possible to really kick Mothra's butt at any given availability, I derive great pleasure in destroyed that useless piece of cloth winged, prism eyed, stuffed flying sock. Sad but True.

Have a beautiful weekend

Hot and Overworked

It's Friday I should be getting ready to relax for the weekend but.......I HAVE GOT TO WORK ALL WEEKEND GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR...... I was looking forward to a nice quiet weekend but because of a few small problems where I work (we have to make some products quickly to ship to Russia to be used at a conference with President Putin and we really don't want to let down the Russian government) the result being I HAVE TO WORK. Its getting hot I want to just relax but no I can't do that I have to give up my weekend so that the company I work for meets its deadline, I didn't set the deadline but it seems to be my problem ARRRRRRRRRRRGHHHHHH.

Actually when all is said and done, I don't mind to much really, my workplace is clean, usually stress free (even for me and I am a team leader), the product we make is good and occasionally we can get free tickets to Live Concerts (last year I went to the Summersonic Festival in Japan thanks to my company), and as an added bonus most of the people I work with are nice and friendly.

Sorry its a boring post but I am to hot to think of anything amusing.

Ask A Ninja

Check out this site http://askaninja.com/ this guy cracks me up, my wife finds it highly annoying but for me it is just so over the top that I have to laugh out loud, the best sketch's for me are Question 6 Master of Disguise and Question 18 Minjas. Minjas are midget Ninjas by the way:)
This guy is insane, not to everyones tastes but give his clips a try you may love it:)

Sucked

This is a short movie one of my friends made for his university course, It stars me (the ugly man with the strange face hair) and someone else that I never actually met, we recorded our parts seperately due to time constraints. I was quite pleased by my performance, its not wonderful but it was my first attempt at acting(badly), I APOLOGISE now for the use of some strong language (Sumimasen to my Japanese friends) , it was not my script(though I did ad-lib most of my lines as my memory is so short I forgot the real lines:D) Its a Horror film about the consequences of greed, hope you like it. Also sorry for the sound quality the compression I used to keep the file size down was too high so the sound is muted slightly:(

Gigan

Just in case anyone is interested, and to show PrincessRuby the difference between the original 1972 Gigan and the best version of Gigan from Godzilla:Final Wars here are the pictures.

As you can see the 1972 Gigan on the left looks rather out of shape with the big belly(looks like my belly) and he has a horrid colour scheme, now look at Gigan on the right, he looks like a real badass, slimmed down, built for speed and endurance, good musculature, knee and elbow spikes, he looks like he could really kick some serious butt.

GIGAN FACTS.

1. Gigan was the first monster to ever make godzilla bleed.

2. Gigan can fly at speeds up to 2,094 mph, 3,370 km/h.

3. Gigan has a buzz saw made of an unknown alien alloy on his chest and abdomen which causes considerable damage to his opponents.

4. Gigan fires a large beam out of his eye that separates into multiple lasers like a shotgun blast and are highly-explosive upon impact. The eye beam is called "Cluster Light" beam.

5. Gigan is DEAD thanks to that stupid big moth Mothra(oooh really scary giant moth, I am so scared of you, here have a mothball and stop eating my clothes).

Worst Guitarist In The World UPDATE

While trying to learn a new chord today I thought of an amazing way to play better...............get someone else to play for me, GENIUS, its definitely the way forward..

Japanese English Flag


Here is my amalgimation of a Japanese and English flag, hope that it offends no one, it is just representative of my home, where everything is a mixture of Japanese and English.
I think it makes quire an interesting shape.

Some Pictures

Here are some photos I took recently

this is a sign post in Bridgenorth, a town not far from where I live here in the UK
This sits next to my TV, the T-Rex is me, the Stegosaurus is my wife :)

Image Change

On the left you may notice a new image:) its Gigan from the Godzilla movies, its only a temporary change from my ugly face lookin at you:)

Strange Conversation

Today I went for a meal with my wife and 2 friends, it was the first time I had been introduced to them and they were a very pleasant couple. During the course of our meal the conversation somehow got around to the film Brokeback Mountain, I said I did not want to watch it as it was not my type of film and my wife said I didn't want to watch it because I was Gay......... How she came to this absurd idea is so bizarre that I cannot fathom it. Now don't get me wrong I have no form of prejudism at all whether it be different religion, colour, race or sexual persuasion, but my wife concluded that I must be homosexual because I didn't want to watch the film. She said I was in denial and thats why I wouldn't watch it.......I had to defend myself but it just seemed to make matters worse, not just for myself but also for the male member of the other couple because his future wife started to say that he was gay also, I tried valiantly to explain I didn't watch the film because I did not like to see love stories and films with kissing in them, even kissing between men and women, women and women, men and men, its something I feel is not important in a film, I don't want to watch tongue action, if I did I would get an ADULT film. I even went on to say that even though I liked Lord Of The Rings it was essentially a gay love story between Sam and Frodo but because you never saw any action of a sexual nature then it was ok to watch....Anyway lovely meal, lovely people, disturbing conversation.....

Scenic View

This shot was taken in February, I was walking home from work when I saw this view, I walk past it everyday but on this day I noticed the beauty of the scene for the first time so I decided to take the picture above.

Worst Guitarist in The World


I am possibly the worst guitarist in the entire world, I have been learning guitar for about 18 years on and off but have failed to get past 3 chords, not included the marvelous movable power chord:). Why I can't learn I am not sure, I have large motivational problems, coupled with the belief that I should sound good straight away, so when I pick up my guitar and try and play a tune and the sound of HELL is released I lose all motivation and put my guitar back in the corner to gather even more dust........Maybe I should just pay someone to teach me:)

The above picture is my extremely underused guitar, I do feel sorry for it, I don't mean to neglect you so much Guitar, I will my a concerted effort to learn how to pay you so you can get the attention you deserve.

Kochi Market, Japan

The Sunday market in Kochi, Japan. I will be there very soon:) I love Japan and the Japanese people.

Cryptozoology

I have always been fascinated by the thought that there are creatures in the world that we have not discovered yet, it would be nice to think there were really Yeti's, dragons, seamonsters and giant birds, I would love them to be discovered, but knowing mankind for what it is I would also worry about the safety of these species if they were found. Some big game hunter would like to hunt them, scientists would want to experiment on them and sight seers would flock to their habitats and destroy the ecology in which they live. Sad to think that way but it seems to be the way of man. Still I can dream that they are real and safe......to know more about strange and exotic species check out Cryptozoology its full of interesting information and stories of sightings around the world.

Check These Sites

Here are some sites to check http://littlesumo.blog58.fc2.com/ I am biased on this one as it is my wifes site, its in Japanese so I can't read it so she has probably said awful things about me:( but as a bonus on about page 4 you get to see how cute I was as a baby. Another site that I really like is http://englishalien.blogspot.com/ the author Tony Bannister writes very well and his stories are very amusing, I wish I could write as well as him. Read his story about the dreaded KANCHO in his March updates. So funny but scary:)

Norio Nishikawa and Bonchi Osamu



These two make me laugh just looking at them :)

Stolen Idea

Can you see the clock below my profile? I am ashamed to say that I stole the idea off one of my favourite sites Obachan's Scribbles. I hope you don't mind Obachan at least I didn't use the same clock.

Gerbils

I have Gerbils......... and no its not a disease, though sometimes I think they are after they have chewed holes in my clothes:P No they are two wonderful little pets called Emi and Doris. They became a part of my family about 3 months ago, they are very very cute and amusing (except when they eat my best t-Shirts grrrrrrrrrr

This is Emi (on the left) and Doris arn't they lovely?

Japanese movies

I know I may be sad but I really want a copy of Godzilla Final Wars, the problem I am having is finding one with English Subtitles. I can probably get one from the USA but other films I have got from there appear to be heavily edited so I am keeping my fingers crossed that I can get a copy in Japan but I doubt it will be possible:( .
I did manage to get Gamera 2:Legion Shurai, Gamera 3:Iris Kakusei,Kaze No Tani No Nowshika, Ultraman(2004), Waterboys, Zatoichi, Twilight Samurai, Ame Agaru and Doraheita from Japan with English subtitles but have had no luck with Godzilla films:( . As you can see I quite like Japanese movies, and I find Japanese humour extremely funny, I can't understand the language but luckily for me the humour is very visual, I have Takeshi Kitano's Oretachi HyoKinzoku and kokoriko miracle type series on DVD, they make me laugh out loud..... I love the songs in Oretachi Hyokinzoku especially when Samma Akashiya sings Bimbo Bimbo namida no Bimbo...
The best song is sung by Norio Nishikawa and Bonchi Osamu its a funny version of a song called Azusa Ni Goh. At times I think Japanese humour looks very painful especially for people working with Takeshi Kitano, but it is just too funny, I will have to get some more DVD's on my next visit to the city of Kochi in August:)

Fine Day

Its another fine day here in England, the sun is shining, I am looking at pigeons in the trees oposite where I live, I have just eaten a tasty Ham, Cheese, Tomato and Lettuce sandwich with a cold glass of cola(no brand names mentioned here unless I get paid for it) and I have finished work early today :) what else can a man ask for.....
