Greetings from J-List January 27, 1998

in Your Friend in Japan

Hello, from a very cold Japan. Kaz and I just got back from the local sento, or public bath. The place we go to is large, with six different baths: scalding hot, medicinal, strong and medium jets, you name it. I’m glad that Japan has such cool father-son customs. There’s a Japanese word to describe what a parent-child relationship should strive to attain — “skinship.” Japan is a cool place sometimes.

I enjoyed watching the Superbowl, although trying to watch football with any non-North American (my wife in this case) is never easy. We Americans don’t realize how difficult the rules are to outsiders. This was my first Superbowl watched entirely with Japanese announcers, and it was surprising how well it worked.

We’ve got a small update for you today — a new issue of the popular Panstopia, and some new in-stock videos on the Video Warehouse pages. Also, there are new CD ROM items on the CD ROM page. That’s all for now — thanks, and take care.
