Would You Buy a Can of Air From This Man?

Don't know what it is about labels in a foreign language, but they will make you spend money on the most ridiculous crap.



I spent 500 yen on a plastic soy bean pod that reveals a happy face when squeezed like an edamame appetizer. No reason. Just did.

So, I can't bust on Alex here to hard for buying a can of oxogen for a hike under 6,000 feet.

"I'm gonna buy this Japanese can of air" some how sounds better than, "I'm going to buy a can of air."

More hiking and paragliding pics from Japan Alps trip here. A good time was had.

Clean Up on Aisle Four


Not sure what this stuff is, but it looks like what its packaging implies.

It was in the liquor section of a huge electronics store, Bic Camera, next to the Kalua.
UPDATE: Its a German vanilla-carmel liqueur. Very kitschy. A must for every 1950 basement bar.
Pretty disgusting.
