Todd and I spent the moring in Akihabara pricing parts as he's thinking about building his own projection tv. Saw some promising bits; small LCD screens and an overhead projector for only 6000 yen but the dude in the store couldn't get it to work.
However the real story is about, you guessed it! GIVE YOUR MEAT. Waiting outside the station for Todd and I see a guy with a blue sweatshirt and in green letter it says GIVE YOUR MEAT. I show him the image on my phone and he laughs and says "that's my friend" and points to her as she's coming out of the ticket gate. He said they got the sweatshirts somewhere in Nerima. I will have to investigate more, but at least I see it's all coming together. And they definitely are NOT Japanese; he and her and about 4 other people where handing out flyers for computer software and stuff -- same street, too. So at least now I know where to go to find them.
Tonight a bunch of us got reserved-seat tickets for Spider-man which should not suck. So far I'm 1 for 2 regarding reserved-seats; Planet of the Apes was a bomb, but Lord of the Rings was THE bomb. So hopefully Spider-man will push my record up to 2 for 3.
