Tokyo Tales – Hall of Japlish

This is fun. And fun is good.

In the meantime, I am watching a home improvement show on The Discover Channel, in which a man is using a specially-designed concrete-cutting chainsaw.

Margie says I may not have one.

This is probably a Good Thing.

47.

Learn it. Love it. Live it.

And now you know why the blog name.

UPDATE (24-Nov-03): The link is now here. And, as an historical note, when this blog was originally created, its name was “DaveHillBlog47.” Hence the above reference.

So there’s this commercial on TV, on a “treasure chest” of rare coins, including at least a dozen wheat pennies. (Which reminds me, I found a 1946 wheat penny in my pocket yesterday. It’s been a while since I got one at random. Neat.)

Anyway, “even the chest itself is a collector’s item,” made out of real wood and “genuine brass-tone hinges.”

Genuine brass-tone hinges.

Wow.
