Fried Chicken and Sushi 176 How to Speak your Language

The way things are going in the publishing world nowadays, if this "How to Talk Ghetto" book was real, it probably would be a bestseller!  I just wish I could animate this comic so that you could hear how Sato sensei sounds speaking "ghetto style."  That would be priceless!  Peace out.

Fried Chicken and Sushi 175 Missing the Music of Home

After living in Japan for several months I forgot about all other types of music and mainly listened to R&B and Hip-Hop!  It's amazing how a lack of "black soul" in a society can mess up a black man.  No wonder there aren't a ton of black folks living in Japan!  I did bring quite a bit of music with me when I moved but getting new music wasn't easy.  When I was living there, iTunes was pretty new and I mainly had to go to the music stores (remember those?) in the city to buy my music.  They had a limited selection and the American music was pretty expensive.  I would buy something that I really wanted though if my soul meter dropped way too low. ;)
