    I figure a lot of people are probably wondering whether there will be a PauseTalk next week or not — considering all of the events that have been cancelled of late — and after having spoken with the Cafe Pause manager, we’ve decided to go ahead and have one. Since the earthquake and following a…

    I finally felt like doing a new episode of the Codex (22) — I really needed to give my head a new soundtrack — and it’s now ready for download.

    Although focus today is on the nuclear emergency, there are still so many in the north of the country that are in need of help — half a million were displaced following the first big quake, I believe. To donate money, there’s the Japan Red Cross, and the Japan Society is taking donations directly, with…

    Let me start by saying that I’m writing this not to add noise to all the useful info getting out there, but because I’ve been contacted by countless concerned people about what happened with me, and what is going on. Here’s my story. As I had mentioned in a recent post, we were heading for…

    First of all, thanks to all who made it to this week’s PauseTalk Vol. 48. It was a small gathering — in fact, for the first 20 minutes or so it was just me and Edward — but eventually a few more people showed up, and you’ll find most of them listed below. But this…

    Having the absolute worse case of seasonal allergies since I’ve come to Japan — the magic pills I always take, Alesion, just aren’t doing their thing it seems this year. Good thing I’ll be out of the country for a few days, starting tomorrow. For the first time, I’ll be taking in Vietnam and Cambodia…

    There’s a good chance you’ve already heard of Luis Mendo‘s The City Reporter series — I’ve shared the love on this site in the past, and have handed out a self-published edition of the Tokyo map at one of last year’s PauseTalks. Luis is coming back to Tokyo in early April for a couple of…

    I’m very late on this, and for that I apologize, but here’s the partial attendance list (those who signed up on the attendance sheet) for last month’s PauseTalk Vol. 47 (held February 7). If you’ll remember, it was the first editon following a two-month hiatus, and I think we all had a fun time. The…

    Since I first posted the reminder over the weekend, here’s just another quick one that this month’s PauseTalk (Vol. 48) is in fact tonight (Monday, March 7) at Cafe Pause, from 20:00. It’s looking like a terrible day in terms of weather, but looks like the snow will stop in the afternoon.

    I just realized that I forgot to post my regular reminder about the next PauseTalk (Vol. 48), which is happening this Monday (March 7) at Cafe Pause, with a start time of 20:00. I’m also realizing that I didn’t post the list of attendees from last month’s Vol. 47, and apologies for that — it…
