sengakuji

Sengakuji is a Buddhist temple located in the Takanawa neighborhood of Minato-ku, about 10 minutes from Shinagawa Station, Tokyo, Japan.

The graves of Shogun Asano Takumi no Kami Naganori and the forty-seven loyal Ronin are here.

Amazing story of honour, loyalty and Japanese culture.

Very, very few Japanese actually know of the temple, story or history.

Beautiful place when the sakuras bloom.

Foreigner in Tokyo - Did you hear the 5AM bell from Sengakuji this morning?
Japanese friend - What's a Sengakuji?

hurricane magnet

Another term for hurricane.

The hurricane was heading for South Beach Miami, so we set up a Hurricane Magnet in North Miami where nobody would be missed.

bindi

Red dot on an Indian womans forehead that lights up to indicate the Icee/Slurpie/Coffee in her convenience store is ready.

Look, the bindi is lit! Time for Cherry Coke and Curry Icee drinks!

gramp stamp

This is what a tramp stamp will be called in another 3 decades when all the girls with butteryfly and tribal tramp stamps are grandmothers.

Yeah, she thinks her tribal tramp stamp is cool now, but one day she'll have to explain her gramp stamp to her grandchildren.

italian apple

I created the Italian Apple Martini while working at the Rio Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas. Here is how you make one at home...
3/4 oz Amaretto Di Saronno liqueur, 1 1/2 oz DeKuyper Sour Apple Pucker schnapps, 3/4 oz Stoli Vanil vodka, 1 splash Rose's lime juice, 1 splash cranberry juice.
Pour all into iced shaker tin, shake until tin is cold to the touch and strain into martini glass. Garnish with lime wheel, and serve.

"I'm tired of drinking beer, I need something good"
"My Spiritual Advisor recommends an Italian Apple martini."

armchair executive chef

A person that, through watching Food Network, believes they are now qualified to edit menus, adjust restaurant recipes and provide advice to people that actually work in the Food and Beverage industry.
AEC for short.

Chef, I've got an AEC (Armchair Executive Chef) in the dining room that suggests we use Extra Virgin Olive Oil in the fryer.
Great, tell him his fried will be $48 dollars.
