Now Playing:  The Jimmy Choos by Chester French (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NM5AcVUGEN4)

"Spending my time on a girl I know
and she keeps me clean
a first rate whore knocking at my door
yeah miss pristine"

Sophisticated.

9 month old Hendrix.

Fuck that youtube baby playing Beatles shit.  This shit here is RAW!

Too big for the bassinet.  Sorry baby.

Got some cleavage in this eh?!

I don't know why Kohaku isn't wearing pants.

Karen cold chillin'.

All grandpas tend to be nuts.

These clothes are some kind of awesome.

K.O.  Home sweet home.

High chairs are for pussies.

"Grabs all the cash from my paper stash
she takes it all
cheesecake, fake name, disco ball
she's got me"

Now Playing:  Sentimental Heart by She & Him (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Djg8EqrNbEU)

"Cried all night 'til there was nothing more
What use am I as a heap on the floor?"

"Old habits die hard when you got,
when you got a sentimental heart
Piece of the puzzle, you're my missing part
Oh what can you do with a sentimental heart?"

 Now Playing:　終わらない歌　by The Blue Hearts (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v7ddPutLq7w)

”終わらない歌を歌う
くそったれの世界のため”

His height is crazy.  By U.S. standards, he's above average graph-wise.  By Japanese standards, dude is a GIANT.

Dr. Nakashima.  He's pretty awesome.

I'm such a great father that I take a picture of my crying son instead of helping him.

My boy Katsuaki came to visit! 

Is that... is that Coach Sarafian on Yosh's face?!

Yosh and the coach, eye to eye.

べつに。

Shirts versus skins.  Prejudice still exists today in some form or another folks.

Stranger fear!  人みしり。

Katsuaki really got into Elliott Smith after I left Japan.  He is also really into a concept of coincidences being more than just coincidences.  So, it must be some kind of coincidence that we ended up at this studio.  Coincidentally, I was wearing a t-shirt with Elliott Smith on it.  Coincidentally, it's the same picture of him on his album cover where he's standing in front of this very studio. 

Al from Married With Children was right.  When you get married, you become a bag holder.

”終わらない歌を歌う
すべてのくずどものために”

Now Playing:  The Story I Heard by Blind Pilot (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5hjcCHZlx9Q)

"One of these mornings
we'll be the loudest you hear
you'll write a story with firecracker paper
and disappear"

Photobucket ain't letting me put vertical pictures up, so here are a bunch of horizontal pictures.

My dad thought Ozzy Osbourne was eating with us.  It's a pretty funny story.  Just ask her.

"Oh, 'cause the story I heard
is the people are bored
and the measures you take
to wrestle with your lord
all the measures you fake
whether your dead or just still
will he measure your tongue?
will he measure your will?"

Now Playing:　　One Red Thread by Blind Pilot (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lMyVFTwelwo ... LIVE = http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A5P0-ubEFGA)

"I have to say there was a mile or two
I had the itch to fly and i flew
now at best we would make our dreams
with something used"

Rabbit boy?  Geriatric?  おっさんみたいね？ ああ！～　鼻くそ！

He likes to sleep on his stomache now.  I didn't let him before because of sudden infant death syndrome, but I think he'll be alright now.

time out?

Naw, just showing off his ability to stand with the aid of an elevated surface.  He still looks sad though huh?

He strongly dislikes head gear.

Oh man.  It was THICK and smelled like WOW.

Ready for the ride.

My dad said he got up halfway, looked back down, and began crying.

Korean b.b.q.  This is the second time in my life I've eaten Korean b.b.q.  The only other time was in high school with a buncha folk and a Korean girl named Michelle aka Annoying Michelle.  It was good, but I felt so sick after I ate it.  I haven't eaten that much meat in at least 6 months.

I love this book and I love that Mongolian butt!  The book teaches babies about belly buttons.  Pretty funny.  My dad says he's too skinny.

It was In-n-Out, Chili's, or Island's.

負んぶ!  博多 ラーメン。

"oh, but, man, oh man, you can do what you want
oh man, oh man, you can do what you want
the only line that is true is the line you're from"
