Paging Sagert Sheets. Sagert Sheets to the tumbledry front desk — heard anything about this? ‘Energy boosting’ eel drink goes on sale for Japan’s hot summer:
A canned drink called “Unagi Nobori,” or “Surging Eel,” made by Japan Tobacco Inc., hit the nation’s stores this month just ahead of Japan’s annual eel-eating season, company spokesman Kazunori Hayashi said Monday.
“It’s mainly for men who are exhausted by the summer’s heat,” Hayashi said of the beverage, believed to be the first mass-produced eel drink in Japan.
Mykala sent me an email about it, asking if you knew anything — it certainly piqued my curiosity. Your input and deep Japanese reservoirs of understanding are requested. Thank you.
Here’s a comment by Ryan from a few years back that I ran across today:
“haha, Emerson is such an under used punchline.”
Stuff like that is essentially why I keep writing here and refining the website. Good times.
This a bit (didn’t bring the wide angle lens!) of our fantastic digs in Barcelona — modern, quiet, cool — a great place to relax after a long day of touring.
Hey Richard, you were right — this YouTube video of John Butler playing the song “Ocean” is pretty spectacular. It’s the sort of chord progression I enjoy when I’m sketching on the piano.
Good stuff.
