Japanese Cones


We spotted some of these cat cones in Japan, in various sectors. Oftentimes they connect the cones with plastic connectors, unseen in the States.

One Small Hitch


I've been traveling in Asia the past few weeks. Here's a fun sign on a bathroom door in Guam. I hope it's legible.

Overheard at Nail Salon Yesterday


I don't see the point in slathering one's nails in an acetone-based enamel paint; but Isa enjoys it, so I indulge her on occasion.
Overheard:

Lady: "So how was your trip to Japan?"

Tech: "It was great. It's really clean there and the people are so polite."

Lady: "What season is it in Japan now? Aren't they like, opposite of us or something?"

Tech: "Well, it was a bit cool, there were flowers everywhere...I think it was fall."

Lady: "That sounds right. Wow, Japan in fall...in April! How fun!"
