That's a combination of tae kwon photo and kung fuji.

Well if you take the required ninjitsu in school like they did, you would be doing the same thing :)

LOL-I notice they seem to know to "get lower".

When I lived in Japan this always made me smile. It's actually very good, believe it or not and it's supposed to be Sweet. I guess they never wanted to go back and correct it after they'd already printed the first batch of labels.

it is a sports drink, so the reference is to (for real!) sweat. It tastes like highly, highly diluted milk, we think it is a soy based product, at least the version we tried, there are several "flavors".

The other fun thing was Black-Black gum, with a menthol intensity that put Altoids to shame. It would clear the sinuses in 2 nanoseconds but turn to tire tread toughness after about 5 minutes. and no, it didn't turn your mouth black.

I worked as a park photographer at Magic Kingdom in Disneyworld.

One thing I found interesting is that they were very insistent on taking all their photos in landscape orientation. I even offered to take a photo of a couple, and I took one of them in portrait, and the guy walked over to me, grabbed his camera and rotated it in my hands, nodded, then walked back to his girl. I was like ok, whatever, and took the photo the way they wanted me to.
