I've decided to put the blog on hold temporarily while I focus my energies elsewhere. Let it be known that I am still in Japan, and that I am still collecting anecdotes and interesting factoids for future use on this blog.
Some possible post titles and/or topics include, but are not limited to:
-Eikaiwa Gigolo
-Japanese Footwear: The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly
-Why Snowboarding in Japan is Such a Fashion Show
-The Agelessness of Asian Women
-McDonalds in Japan: What McDonalds in America Could Be
-Most Useful Phrases in the Life of an ALT: #1. Ginko e itekimasu.
-And Kindergarten Story Time
In the meantime you can enjoy some of my other writings which I published under a pen name - J. K. Rowling - perhaps you've heard of it?
Until then, Genki dene.
Good topics.

How about the Small? I had to buy my shoes from SF on trips there, my size (10 1/2) wasn't available in Japan ...
Now, only if you don't mind (otherwise, please remove my post), perhaps you or your blog readers might want to have a look at “Simon and Hiroko,” a dramatic love story located to a large extent in Japan, which has gathered several appreciative reviews and blog interviews.
It certainly touches on the Yakuza and the police:-)
Murakami lovers might like it.

I wish you’d take a stab at it too, as impressions from current residents would be very special for me.
I lived two years in Tokyo and I enjoyed the place very much.
Cheers.
