Thank you so much to the two producers and the director and staff for giving Lee and I this chance at a show! We did our best and learned alot!

The other day I went to Rokko Island in Kobe to perform English Rakugo at the Canadian Academy international school. The kids were fantastic. They have an unbelievable theatre there at the school and the staff is hospitable to a fault.
When I finished my first performance for the grade-school kids, it was time for questions from the children. The first one asked, "Can you tell us another story?" The next one asked, "There's still time left in this period so why can't you tell us another story?" It's such a pleasure to perform for children who are dying to listen and learn. Hats off to the teachers and staff for creating that kind of interest. It's a truly phenomenal place. I can't wait to be invited back.
Thank you!

Yesterday Lee and I went to a temple for a serious religious experience for our TV show. I can't tell you what we did before it goes on air, but I will say that it was very very very very cold.
There are two producers and one director on this show. I am beginning to dislike them very intensely.
One more day of shooting on the 19th and we're finished episode one. If all goes well, maybe they will ask us back for episode two!!! After what Lee and I went through yesterday, there better be an episode. 2!
On second thought, I may regret hoping for that...

Today Lee and I started filming our show. It was a great time, but tiring! I have new respect for people who work on TV.
DILA Language School
My very first job in Japan was with the DILA language school, teaching English, mostly to businessmen about to go to work abroad.
It's a great family-run school that teaches over 55 languages! In that way it may be unique not only in Japan, but maybe the world.
The DILA family have supported me in my artistic pursuits ever since, and they always come out to see me perform when I am in Tokyo.
They recently wrote a great article about me in their blog.
Thank you DILA!

I was in a parade yesterday for the festival of the Japanese Merchant God Ebisu. This family was at the side watching us go by. The daughter is eating a Japanese festival snack called Tamago Senbei, which is an egg (this time shaped as a heart) with rice krispies and mayonaise on a rice cracker. This is one of my favourite snacks in the world, but I was working so I couldn't get one myself. I did, however, enjoy the snack vicariously through this little girl.
Thank you to the family for letting me take your picture!!!

Yesterday I was part of a huge parade for the Japanese Merchant God Ebisu. Being part of this parade brings good fortune for the year, especially in one's work or business, so I was happy to be chosed to be part of the Japanese Yoshimoto Comedian's attraction in the parade.
The main part of our attraction was a palanquin calle a "Kago" in Japanese. The Japanese comic duo Plus Minus (pictured below) got the honour of riding in the Kago. It only holds one person, so they took turns.
I have had the opportunity to perform with plus minus recently, and it's been great getting to know them. They are absolutely hilarious. I want to bring them to Canada!
Thank for a great day!!!

Yesderday I performed outside the NGK theatre with the Manzai comedy group "Snake Strawberry" and singer Mizugi Kei. It was cold, but great fun. Lots of people came by and wished us well in the new year.
I didn't get his picture, but the host was Mr. Charanporan Tomiyoshi. He was hilarious. He said I resembled a Northwest Airline Pilot and that I would have been alot better moving up the corporate ladder of a Ginger Ale or Maple Syrup company than entering the crazy world of Japanese comedy!
In all, a great day! Thanks everyone!
