Cooking with Cam: Vol. 7: Guerrilla Egg Breakfasts

Yesterday when I was ootnaboot I picked up a frypan that is specifically made for cooking Japanese-style omelettes. And this morning, when I was about to try it out, I thought to myself, "Hmmm... I bet the rest of the world has never seen a frypan shaped like this." So I decided to make this video for you!

Cooking with Cam: Vol 6 Candlelight Dinner for Me

Time for another cooking "lesson" with chef Cam. How to have a delicious dinner... with leftovers!

Meet the Yaki Imo Man

Today the yaki-imo man passed through my neighbourhood, with a gaggle of little girls dancing, running, and munching on their stone-cooked sweet potatoes.

This is a very common tradition in autumn/winter Japan...

Listen to the almost forlorn song they sing... and you can feel what it must have been like for the yaki-imo man as he tried to feed his family after the war, on a meagre sustenance of stone-cooked sweet potato.

Where White Rules

The second ad they showed on that TV program, an alternative ad for Sony Bravia was this one, where they let loose something like 450,000 tons of pure white foam in the city of New York. Again, no CG SFX (Computer Graffic Special Effects) were used. This was real foam!

Imagine losing yourself in the clouds for those brief moments in time... It must feel like this...

There are a lot more amazing commercials like this that Sony has done... the music that goes with them soothes my soul. I hope you enjoy this one as much as we did. I love you! Cam

Colour Matters

Last night while Mayu and I were sitting in our hospital room at Saiseikai hospital after our days batter of tests for the "ningen dock" or "human docking" were complete, there was a program on TV that Mayu was watching which showed some amazing commercials that did not use any CG SFX (Computer Graffic Special Effects). One of them was the Sony Bravia commercial entitled "Colour".

Imagine 250,000 coloured superballs being shot out of three cannons and let to bounce their way to life down the streets of San Francisco....

In the high tech world, colour really DOES matter!

I hope you enjoy this one minute video. We certainly did.

I love you!

Traveling with Toto

Japan has the most amazing toilet culture... I guess you really have to experience it to believe it. Even Madonna is a devout believer of the toilet religion we call TOTO.

Look at what I found on Amazon!!!

I love you!

Globalized Futon: Sharing My Bed... ding!

Mitch wants a futon. I have a futon. I offered to ship my Japanese futon to Mitch in Canada. Mitch is interested. I made a video showing my desire to ship our futon (set) to Mitch so that he may enjoy a little bit of Globalized Love himself!

By the way, I also asked Mitch... as you know... nothing is really for free... soooo.... should he choose to accept this Globalized Love Package... I would like for him to make a video response, of him receiving, opening, and describing his experience as he enjoys receiving some Globalized Love!

After all, that's being a part of the Globalized Love Community is all about!

You gotta give a little to get a little, and give a lot to get a lot!

And I LOVE to give (and thus get) a whole heap of burning Globalized Love!

I love you!

P.S. I have another few futon if anyone else is interesed in receiving a Globalized Love Futon!

P.P.S. Mitch accepted, the paypal transaction went smoothly, and I have delivered the futon to Japan post and as Mitch chose EMS (air) he will be receiving it in about a week, depending upon the mood of the boys and girls at Canada Customs.

Just for your refernce, Canada Customs can be real buggers some times... those damn Canadians - they just gotta collect their taxes to pay for the universal healthcare, of course!
