Movie Review of the Quentin Tarantino's "Jackie Brown"



This post is a review of Quentin Tarantino's "Jackie Brown" I saw yesterday .

It is easy to take movie scene of smoke marijuana using pipe is people can understand than joint.

Music Review of Grateful Dead and Jerry Garcia



This post is a music review of GRATEFUL DEAD. GRATEFUL DEAD was formed in San Francisco in 1965. GRATEFUL DEAD was unique and eclectic style, which fused elements of rock, folk, bluegrass, blues, reggae, country, jazz, psychedelia, and space rock and for live performances of long musical improvisation. GRATEFUL DEAD is only one in my favorite JAM BAND. Jerry Garcia is worshiped from DEAD HEADS godlike. Apparently, the origin of the name of GRATEFUL DEAD seems to have come from the Buddhism and Hinduism.

Because the review of GRATEFUL DEAD seems to become long, I will write slowly...

Music Review of Lynyrd Skynyrd

The music influenced from the blues and a British rock is a profound rock that manipulates three guitars. They dissolved. Because the airplane crashed in 1977 tour.

DOPE EYE "Fishing & Outdoor High Equipment" Decal

I designed Decal of Dope Eye. Psychedelic various items demonstrate the power in the field of outdoor. This mark expresses eyes in the state that the pupil opens. In the open pupil, the light that reflects in the light of the sun and the pond of the evening shines on fish. An ardent drug believer doesn't mistake the usage. It is necessary to use psychedelic to unite naturally like the peyote used to pray of American Indian originally. Moreover, Ayahuasca include DMT that amazone shaman use for treatment and ceremony. Cannabis more than alcohle in India as holy ceremony of Hinduism. It is a ceremony to unite all with the god named natural and to harmonize, and the small enjoyment of the people who are affluent. I like bass fishing and fly fishing. Therefore, I want Bass Angler and fly fisherman's people to use this decal. In tomorrow's fishing, let's float the rowboat on the lake, and roll joint including high quality budz. Your dog and wife are waiting in the pavilioned lake side. Let's grill the chiffon cake and the pie with a Dutch oven making warm chai. It is invited to the smell and the animal in the forests come near. Let's get from nature and worship some bass and beautiful sunshine in the evening. Let's drip coffee that roast for myself, and eat bassb fillet steamed with the olive oil and white wine. Let's make the Indian curry made from the chicken, tomato, and onion for tomorrow morning.

Today's Foto "The Steak"



This photograph taken by the steak restaurant near our home. This restaurant name is Steak no Don. It is a cheap, delicious shop we found recently. When if you order beefsteak in Japan, it is very high. However, high quality beef cannot be expected like the United States in thickness. If you are a male, my recommendation is hamburger steak. Free bread/rice and free soup are included in the steak on the iron plate menu. Free rice/bread and free soup are contained in the main plate for 730 yen at the lunch time. The photo is mix grill at the dinner time. In the mix grill, hamburger steak, chicken steak, beefsteak, french fries, broccoli, and fried onion, etc. have gotten on the iron plate. Price is 1280 yen including free rice/bread and free soup. You can see other menu from here but Japanese. A left photo is dessert of chocolate ice cream. Price is 390yen.

Review of the DOMINGO Hydrostone



Cigarettes were about $4 to excess for $5 recently in Japan. It is not possible to shake the smoking habit, because I am a habitual smoker. I changed from box cigarette to roll cigarette by myself. Because it is a good cost performance. but having little trouble rolled for myself. I bought the leaf of the brand named DOMINGO. Then, the cigarette shop served the stone in the photograph.

Instruction for uses
Allow the Hydrostone to soak for 2 to 3 minutes in water. Then place the stone in your Domingo tobacco. The evaporation effect gives you a moist and pleasant tobacco to smoke. This stone can be reused.

The cigarette leaf becomes bitter when it dry. Moderate moisture makes the taste mild. Therefore, this stone is important.

Today's Photo



Today is very cold day in Kokura. Lowest temprature is -2 degrees, Highest is 0 degrees. It is unusual in Fukuoka. We did close our shop and went home of my wife's family. We went to get the Kotatsu. Because it was not used in her parents' houses. Kotatsu is a heating appliance of Japan. An electric heater has adhered on the back side of the top board of a small low table. And, the cotton enters blanket put on it like the tablecloth. Moreover, another top board is put. It is a device that doesn't let the heat of the heater go on the outside.

Music Review of Takkyu Ishino



I review the music of Takkyu Ishino this time. He released "Cruise" that was the original solo work after an interval of six years. He had been inventing a lot of masterpieces for 20 years with the unit (Pierre Taki & Takkyu Ishino) of Denki Groove. It is a mini album that collected the techno tracks that should be called a state-of-the-art electronica of the universal standard this time. 1. FEB4 is settled track never intense. In the rhythm of the bass drum like 130BPM, it is a snare with a little small expansion. The timing of the percussion of the bongo is exquisiteness. It is a small metallic sound, and is low and a base of two steps. Gradual wave and tempo like long board of surfing. The number of musical instruments is made a minimum. 2. In Spring Divide, it is a tempo of 130BPM, and, similarly, the baseline is a track where the feature is never intense. A sound smart because of an irregular metallic sound of the percussion instrument is comfortable. Accent of two wind instrument music scales. A gradual wave is casual and suitable good track. 3. SpinOut is an intense tune for a moment. The overlapping synthesizer sound of two music scales stands out. There is a percussion in backing. It looks like a German, general, minimal techno. 4. Hukkle is an up-tempo tune that getting on is good. I like this tune. When dancing as club music, it is fit. YO!The cheer named Japan is Oriental. The melody of the saxophone and the trumpet that flows to the whole volume uplifts feelings. Do ska, and the harmony of the melody of the trumpet and the saxophone like jazz and the sampled voices is exquisiteness. The body begins to move naturally. 5. Arek starts by the rhythm of the bass drum and high-hat cymbals of an average heavy electronica. A simple melody of the typical synthesizer used for the techno that appears gradually overlaps. The accent of the piano roll of the music scale that gradually becomes long sometimes flow is impressive. 6. Y.H.F . It is a tune that listens easily. peel off and start from the melody that popular , is beautifulIt is a disco sound that intersects with musical instruments and melodies various music scales, and is beautifully settled. It is settled overall tune.
