I saw a (white) clerk at Taco Bell with a tattoo on his arm that was supposed to say "hannin," for criminal (I think that's the pronunciation; "han" is crime and "nin" of course is person), except that he had separated the two components of "han," i.e. he had kemonohen as a character all by itself, for a total of three supposed characters. It was written vertically. I debated whether to tell him about it, but I decided I had better not!


does that make it mean something else, or is it just garbage permanently attached to his skin?

That's the funny part. Kemono hen doesn't mean a damn thing by itself. It would be like writing the letter "H" vertically as:

Increase Your PM Length

Musings

1) Other great leaders not used, Japan - Isoruku Yamamoto, England - John Churchill, William Slim, France - Turenne, Greece - Themistocles, Germans - Rommel, Russians - Kutusov.

2) The Empty Air concept on Tokugawa's lapels probably refers to the empty self thingie from The Book of Five Rings.

3) A screenie from my first game of Civ3 when I dialled up Tokugawa to arrange peace.

Foreign Characters Increase Your PM Length

I read (Reader's Digest, no less) about a New York restauranteur who put Gentlemen, Ladies, Herren, Damen (sp.) Senor, Senorita etc. on his washroom doors. He finished up with some Chinese characters of the bottom of a plate - that he was later informed said "Chinese Relief".
