Pete's Log: Log Entry 366
Entry #366, (Life in General)(posted when I was 21 years old.)
"did you think a pig's bladder was this big?" ... iron chef at it's finest. today's iron chef episode came from xmas 1998. iron chef japanese morimoto squared off against a french-trained challenger. theme ingredient: turkey. very strong christmas theme. the entire affair seemed kinda un-japanese, since christmas isn't really a holiday over there, and turkey is a rare food to see in japan, from what i understand. but it was a great episode, with some memorable quotes, such as "they'd better have high cholesterol at that price." the show also offered other inspirations:

|---|---|
| use | special device |
| watch | instant replay |
| battle | turkey |
| brighten up | kitchen |
with my limited japanese vocab, i have begun forming less than useful sentences: "watashi wa gakusei desu. shinkansen wa. atana wa shinkansen ja arimasen ka." which translates to "i am a student. what about the bullet train? aren't you the bullet train?"
