And the special edition includes a sheet music folio. Be still my heart.

I wish I could still find the link, but there was a clip of a French/English interpreter losing it and dropping an f-bomb on a live Canadian parliamentary feed a few years back. I imagine a lot of foreign translators being just as frustrated these days and for the next four years.

Upvote for toilet technology here, too. Although the yawning abyss between the squat toilets (notably in Kyoto Station and this one restaurant where I had a totally tasty box of eel - at least the former were marked on a map) took some getting used to. Some of the newer restaurants here are at least getting heated…

I asked if this call was recorded, got confirmation that it was and promptly launched into a calm, reasoned explanation of why their "poll" was a steaming pile of crap already - statistically and otherwise. …

I'm in Canada! Off to skew some results!

I have a friend who looks very similar to Odenkirk, but ten years or so younger. Weirdly, he used to work with a guy who looked very similar to David Cross whose name was (shit you not) Michael Bolton.
