He's using a Korean version: it has the scent of kimchi.

And it doubles as a seasoning for meat and vegetables.

really...didn't know one existed...i hate those metal chopsticks..but the reason why they are metal is so they don't absorb the colors and odors from spicy korean food like kimchi and the like.

Hey, BMW, if I fly down there for Nisei Week, can I splay myself out on your living room floor?

Sure. Let me stop over at Home Depot and pickup a tarp. :hehe:

You might want to stop by Walgreens and get some incontinence bed pads too, I'm not house broken.

Whoops, I'm already getting things off topic. Yes. I'll bring a supply of my own Depends...to the Nisei festival.

So you're going to be lugging a backpack full of them or just nonchalantly carrying a Depends box under your arm? :hehe:

Backpack...too heavy to carry underarm for too long :hehe:

Good. That's a little more discreet, else I'd have you walk about ten paces behind me... :hehe:

I wonder if it's worth going both weekends?? :headscratch:
