Coke or Pepsi in Japan?

Wednesday, February 25, 2009 / Posted by Zackary / comments (1)

I think Coke has done a better job than Alexander conquering the known world. You can find Pepsi in Japan but Coke is the dominant American soft drink. Every month or two I find a vending machine with Mt. Dew and jump up and down and generally cause Japanese people to laugh at me.

Coke in Japan to me anyway tastes exactly like Coke in America. In Chicago there was a Mexican place that imported Coke from Mexico and it was good but more sweet. In Europe I thought that Coke also tasted sweet but in a different way.

Peace,

Who is the current Prime Minister of Japan?

Tuesday, February 24, 2009 / Posted by Zackary / comments (0)

Japan's Prime Minister is Taro Aso. You can read his profile at:

His days in power seem limited as he is very unpopular with the Japanese people. That one of his key political allies recently resigned after falling asleep at a press conference and appeared drunk did not help anything.

As I recently said, my focus is on providing original content that you can’t get anywhere else. However, I thought you might also enjoy reading some general facts about Japan as well. So from time to time I will be adding Japanese Facts. As always if you have questions I will add to this category.

As always, thanks for stopping by.

Morning Shot

Good Morning from Nagoya, Japan!


At 8:49 a.m. it is 47.1 degrees and looks like rain. Sunrise was at 6:29 a.m.although I missed it as my red curtains were closed.

I was teaching at two Japanese Public Junior High Schools but recently finished up my contract. So I am looking for a new teaching job. The plus side of this is that I don’t have to get up for work or for anything else actually. I have been sleeping during the day and have been up for hours but a new pot of coffee sounds nice.

Thank you for stopping by, please relax and make yourself at home. If you want something, please let me know. I am your host and here for you.

Peace,
