Yeah, that Expo isn't much to write home about... :sweat:


In the early years of Japan Expo, it was really quite good. Each year would focus on a different region of Japan, and scores of artisans, craftsmen, and other locals from that region would be brought over to display their skills and sell their wares. There was also a significant number of cultural events presented from martial arts to traditional arts. All of the Japanese auto manufacturers would have their latest models on display. Lots of vendors, lots of food, lots of entertainment, lots of people, both participants and attendees. Unfortunately, in the last decade, like the Nisei Week festival, Japan Expo has been withering away. It's now housed in a much smaller hall, is held over two days instead of three, and has far less of everything than in its early years.

Wow, this guy who came into the office today was pretty hot. He looked like a surfer type, down to the type of surfer shorts they wear and no shirt. The creepy part (to me, anyway) was that he's one year younger than my parents. Yikes. :sweat:

So, what's creepy: a guy one year younger than your parents acting like a surfer, or you being ATTRACTED to a guy one year younger than your parents? [/list:u]

Old surfers never die... they just get crustier ;) I'm guessing there would be more than a few old surfers in Hawaii :)

I like older men. But I think everyone at this forum as already figured that out about me. :beaten:

I find the surfer thing strange tho... but then, if he really CAN still carry a wave, then why not continue with the surfer persona, yea?

But you know, a guy who can look that good and maintain his shape as got to have great genes. ;)
