I'm Going To Japan

Just curious, is there anyone out there who truly believes this "Beautiful Nose Making Magical Roller" works? It's supposed to make your nose slimmer. It's from Japan. Of course.

Do the people who make this gadget believe that it works? Do they actually think they can make people think it works?

Or are they just pulling your nose (sorry, yes, I made that joke).

There is much to love about this thing, not the least of which is the fact that the store selling it has filed it under the categories of "Health" and "Diet.

Sadly no. :shakehead: If Ron were pushing this, he would throw in a Pocket Fisherman, Showtime oven, or the hair in the spray can for free.

Hehe. On the real, nice pictures. I like the one with the flowers in the foreground...it makes the statute look as if it's nestled in the forest.

Can you actually go inside the Daibutsu? Looks like there's windows/vents on the back of it...

Why not!

He was human and never claimed to be anything else!!!

You surely can. As you can see from one of the pics the que to get in was too long so we opted to go to Kenchoji nearby to maximize our time. I'll have to visit on an off day to check the inside. :victory:

Yup! It's kinda anti-climatic, though. His large sandals made of straw is much more impressive.

I think I got lucky when I was there. No lines!

Fair point. I guess some of us lesser mortals who can't find enlightenment can enjoy more banal pursuits.

So ka.

I couldn't rightly tell if you could go inside and check things out... :sweat:
