we almost ate what

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-seven years and one million words

Nichinan, Kyushu, 2013.01.03

So it turns out that when we were in Takachiho last week, we might well have been served "Japanese giant hornet" (as food that is, not as a means of assassination). How close was it? On the TV show that we watched today (over dinner, no less) the fellow from our hotel was speaking with the journalists.

And here I thought that the fish eyeballs I've been eating were adventurous.

You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself any direction you choose. You're on your own. And you know what you know. And YOU are the guy who'll decide where to go.
