Father's Day

In Japan, Father's Day is celebrated on the third Sunday in June.


...Yes, today is Father's Day!!


What did you do for your father?





I bought some cakes and ate them together.





No special thing I did, but I think to be with my father on that day is more important than any thing else for him.






Anyway, many people do something on Mother's Day, but they tend to miss Father's Day, indeed...


Poor fathers!! (^^;)

Candle Night

A very small candle festival was held at Suzuki Pediatrics, which is located in front of yakitori shop Riki.




A man was playing the ukulele.


So quiet night was there.



No electricity may warm the cockles of our heart.

Desert Island Joke

Imagine a beautiful desert island in the middle of nowhere where the following people are stranded.

・2 Italian men and 1 Italian woman
・2 French men and 1 French woman
・2 German men and 1 German woman
・2 Greek men and 1 Greek woman
・2 English men and 1 English woman
・2 Bulgarian men and 1 Bulgarian woman
・2 American men and 1 American woman
・2 Japanese men and 1 Japanese woman
・2 Irish men and 1 Irish woman




We can expect that the situations one month later will be quite different in each nationality group.


Let me show some examples.


Italian:
One man killed the other man for the woman.

French:
They are all living happily together as a family of three.

German:
The two men have a strict weekly schedule of when they alternate with the woman.





And the case of Japanese is so interesting.

The two Japanese men have faxed Tokyo and are waiting for instructions.
The Japanese woman is recording everything on her camcorder.





Of course they are all jokes besed on our common stereotype.


But it's so pity to be regarded us as incompetent Japanese.

Farmer's suicide in Fukushima

A cattle farmer in Fukushima killed himself.

The man, in his 50s, reportedly hanged himself in a cattle house.




The daily farmer's suicide message was left on the wall of one of the man's barns.

"原発さえなければ (Wish there were no nuclear power plant)"





Japan's government banned milk shipments from the region in the wake of the nuclear meltdown at the plant.

The man was also forced to kill some of his cows and close his daily business.




I'm sure his endurance had come to an end...





I don't like the phrase "if only there were no something" because it's so nagative.


Things have already happened.

And we should manage to deal with that situation at first.





I believe that successful reconstruction will be led by not something negative but love and hope with much gratitude.

Delivery?

The shop next to Eigonoie is FRESHNESS BURGER.

I usually take out some products and eat at Eigonoie.



My lunch today was also its Teriyaki Chicken Burger and chips.



But the staff gave me a different product at that time.

I didn't notice that and took out to Eigonoie.



After a while, someone knocked the Eigonoie door.

That woman was a staff of FRESHNESS BURGER.

She delivered the product I had ordered!!




Well, you know, my face has been remembered by all the FRESHNESS BURGER staffs...(^o^;)
