Reina did a FANTASTIC job asking a little about Asuka (aka Kana) that I didn't even know!! But to shorten my little ramble, got me interested in eating eel!!

      @@PongoXBongo The sushi place I frequent has this sampler available during lunch hours, where you pay like 11 bucks and you get completely random nigiri thrown at you, like whatever the chef is in the mood for, plus you get a California roll. It's great. That's what I always go for when I'm looking to try something new.

    The second part if this piqued my interest in the connections between Japan and jazz.
    I know Murakami is a reverent afficianado- he mentions jazz a lot in his writing. There is also something about the improvisation within form, the restraint, the obsessiveness, and the romanticism of jazz that made the simile not a stretch

    And here was me thinking that for about 15 - 20 years we've been talking about the decline of the eel. As a child I remember literally thousands of elver pooling together on my coast, today not so many. Worth so much more as food, shame (sad) and glad for the farmers. Reina is a great person it always makes me smile with the Japanese ladies covering their mouth when laughing.
