		<description>You should try being a professional gomi hunter - my entire house consists of awesome furniture and appliances that we get during our  almost weekly pickups of stuff gaijin need to get rid of when leaving the country. *And* we get paid to do it. 

A wonderful little collection of random moments. Especially liked the car chase...

@Billy - I suspect he didnt need to travel back home that night ;)</description>

		<description>6 hours walk must have caused some blisters on the feet. How did you get back home? Stealing a bike didn&#039;t cross your mind? After the second hour I would have thrown my morals out the window and heisted one for sure.</description>

		<description>It is amazing Nick how everyone has only mentioned your last entry.
I find the whole lot really interesting as I have learnt quite a bit about your adventures that I didn&#039;t know before. That poor cat!!!
It makes me wonder what else you got up to LOL.</description>

		<description>Here&#039;s hoping I never hear a nurse say &quot;Pull down your pants and show me your anus.&quot; Holy cow. Not cool! I&#039;m glad it all worked out, though. Ha ha. Good entry! I&#039;m still trying to rally and get something relevant up!</description>
