  1. We are back in Tokyo for one night before flying back home tomorrow. We are staying on the edge of the Tsukiji Outer Market. Arrived at the hotel around 1 and dropped off our luggage. My wife, kids, wife’s mom, my SIL, and my SIL’s kids all went to eat ramen. I had other plans. After eating some tasty sushi at a sit-down restaurant, I found my favorite food stand. “Grilled tuna” on a stick and a draft beer for $1,000 yen ($6). I’ll be going back for lunch tomorrow.

  11. Just got home after seeing Asleep at the Wheel and Willie Nelson at the Greek Theatre in Berkeley. Willie sat the entire set, which is totally understandable considering he’s 90 and still touring. Ray Benson did double duty fronting his band and backing up Willie.
  12. I lucked into free GA tickets from Little Steven to the Springsteen show in San Francisco last night and it was an epic night for my wife, daughter, and me (our son missed out because he was away on a school trip). The show itself was incredible. It was our first Springsteen concert and I’m kicking myself for not attending one when I was younger. During the show, Little Steven gestured for me to give him the hat I was wearing. He and Bruce took turns wearing it for nearly an entire song. To make the night even crazier, Bruce handed my daughter his harmonica after playing it.
  13. @South Austin‘s mom has some holes that need filling. But that’s a different type of gambling.
  14. Saint Peter’s to beat Tennessee
  15. The French resistance is an entirely separate series, which would be awesome.
  16. Great finale. I was looking for Hogan and his crew when the POWs arrived at Stalag 13.
