good morning. all i can say is “atsui.” that means hot. how do you say “hotter than hot?” i’m baking here in japan and my car air conditioner is broken. imagine driving around in an oven. it’s been only a day and a half and i lost 5 lbs due to sweat…. yuck….

mango’s might be over a hundred dollars for one but you can get 5 avocado’s for $1.75. now that’s a deal…

when i first got my new camera, i took it to the maldives and was shooting everything. i was using film at the time so every photo costed me money. i still don’t know why i took this one? a locked door? maybe i was wondering who was in there? still don’t know…

in some parts of america, the DEATH PEALTY lives on. you do something really bad, you die. i like that law because it makes you think before you do things. in hawaii, we don’t have the death penalty and that’s one reason why people do stupid things. people here get away with murder..

and last, ever know what it looks like to get dropped in on? all you can see is sprays in your face and somebody’s ass. here is kazuma’s ass. at keramas…..

$115 each?
Are you crazy?

when i was on standby yesterday waiting for my ticket, i was nervous. but when i seen seat 1J, all the nerves went away. i knew i was going to have a comfortable flight to japan. it’s the first time i drank champagne at 10 o’clock in the morning…. ended up watching 4 movies, ate good food and ice cream, took a nap, and next thing you know, i was at narita…

why do i come to japan every typhoon season? because of this! i tell my friends everywhere in the world that no place has better waves than japan. when it’s good, it’s good. but when it’s not good, it’s not good. so the wait makes it all better. i’m ready, my boards are ready, my spearguns are ready, and my camera is ready. so come next typhoon, i’m moving around. so to all my friends in japan, please keep me posted. and see you really soon!!! by the way, this photo was taken by kinsan at a really secret spot on an outer island somewhere in japan. if i tell you where, i’d have to kill you afterwards…
have a great evening!!!!
