Japan, WTF

If you walk around Tokyo long enough you will run across some very odd things.  I havnt figured out if this is because I dont speak the language or I dont understand the greater social context of some of these random things.  But I do know from asking the locals, that some like the bust of Obama crashing into peoples heads is just as confusing to Japanese people as it is to the rest of us.


While I totally understand the need for American companies to adapt their image to the local customs, something about how that Colonel Sanders is dressed just makes me smile

Not sure what it does, maybe it helps make me into one of these

oh ya speaking of cartoonishly giant mega-creatures what the hell is up with Tokyo's Crows

For perspective that tree is 25 feet tall, that bird is bigger than most of the small dogs people walk around the city.  No wonder they had Godzilla fighting giant winged creatures like Mothra.  They probably were just modeling it off of their own killer giant birds.
Love and Horses best named track event of all time.


This one confuses the hell of out me... I have no idea what this is supposed to be... The people working the booth could only tell me that you enter and have your picture taken as Obama with lectern in tow crashes onto your head.  I asked both the people working it and a waitress in a near by cafe if they knew what this was for...they all seemed as confused as myself.
