Jenn challenges me to:


Get your picture taken with a geisha in Tokyo. A real geisha, not a tourist geisha


Pat and Jenn challenge me to: 

Are you ready Seaniel-son? I have great challenge for you...if you choose to accept.

1. Visit the Italia Mura and explain to me why its called "italia"...is it italian themed...its near the port so is it safe to consider it the "jersey shore" of Nagoya?
2. Apply for a job and hopefully have an interview with toyota at Midland square, the new international sales headquarters for the Toyota Motor Corporation or just spit off the observation desk.
3. Purchase some "fine China" from Noritake factory and then point out to all around you that it should really be called "fine Japan".
4. Visit the Tokugawa Art Museum and surrounding garden and see if they have a cafeteria...if so order a hamburger and arrange the burger into "an artistic" shape on your plate. Try to get the resulting burger art accepted into the musuem.
5. Either attend or audition for a play at Nagoya Noh Theatre.
6. Go to the Pachinko musuem and explain to them that you had hoped it would be a plinko(the stupid game from the price is right) musuem. Ask them if it is too late to switch or just figure out what Pachinko is.
7. Get a photo of you at a bar watching an nhl playoff game.
8. Have a few drinks and then go to the Koma (Spinning Tops) Museum. Dont get sick.
9. Find or make poutine and then remember that its average.
10. Go to shebandowan in august.
