Nagaii!



Oyashirazu o nukitta... that's Japanese for I got my wisdom tooth pulled! Man check this fucker out, the roots are super duper long!

Man I finally found a good dentist in Japan. This dude not only is cool (he like The Beatles, Rolling Stone, Jack Johnson, and I've got him listening to Phish now!), but he's got the most tricked out dentist office I've ever seen. You know those Asian kids that have the lowered Honda Civics with the big spoilers, awesome custom wheels, lights, sound system, etc...? He's like that, of the Dentist set.

Anyway, it got me wondering about Japanese people and how some of them have really jacked up teeth, especially here in the country. I asked about it, and some people seem to think that the parents think the kids are "cute" when they've got a mouthful of stalagtites in the cave, but I think the trend now is moving towards proper dentistry (ex: my new school dentist, a lot of my kids have braces now). Hm, something to think over.



In other news, fall is finally here! The weather is beautiful, sunny, and big puffy clouds with awesome sunsets. Fall is Japan is the shiiiiiit!
