Onjuku's nicer in September anyway. Just less eye-candy.
What? Starmugler and 57 varieties aren't eye-candy enough for you?

Aren't you all staying at home due to approaching typhoons and possible earthquakes?

I am not convinced that our nicknames need nicknames, but I'll keep this post updated as a kind of legend if this trend continues.

Yea, but it must have had some volcanic component, the fissures have allowed sulfur gas to escape into the atmosphere.

Onwards and forwards to Mabo #9, aka Mabor Day.

The exalted IC will consider the date ("don't pay attention to the men behind the curtain").

FWIW, most mabo-fests are scheduled on Thursdays for the benefit of the local working sararimen.

Understood. Still, I'd prefer the 30th, as I don't arrive in NRT until the evening of the 29th.
