Been sick for weeks now!! WTF!!

The doc started me on new antibiotics...  I also manged to find a Japanese over the counter pain reliever called Shin Kokon-S.  It has 900mg of acetaminophen plus some herbal junk.  That kicks the bananas outta the J-Tylenol, which only has like maybe 200mg of acetaminophen...

I need to kick this bug...  I've spent more time, energy, and money on this than I have on anything else I've caught since I've been in Japan.  And no...  The oppressive humidity is NOT helping.

Of course, my doctor told me I was looking much healthier...

  1. Hi Tom... I stumbled across your vids just a couple of days ago and watched almost 2 million of 'em now. Isn't that great that complete strangers can come up to you and know this much about your life? I have a pod cast so of whence I speak. By the way, hope you're feeling better. Is there a way someone can snag the lyrics to C'est La Rose from you? Thinking about recording an accompaniment to the version with you and Hiroko... maybe you might dig it. Maybe you might hate it. C'est La Vie!

    Arigatou!

  4. Liking your music and style (both band and your personal savoire fair on the Youtube vids- fun stuff.) and looking for GoM merch- anything? Back on topic- here in Hawaii we get American Aspirin/acetominophen and if you're super active and healthy it really isn't any good as prescribed by the directions. Luckily my doctor was also my paddling coach and really into extreme sports (as I am) and he clued me in to the fact that the directions on the bottle are to cover the manufacturer's @ss in court if someone by some huge confluence of fate dies from an overdose of aspirin. I surfed since I was a wee kid, raced Hawaiian outrigger canoes, kickboxed/BJJ and raced paddleboards and I have found there is no "maximum dosage" for aspirin or Tylenol type stuff aside from what your body responds to. Aloha- RnS.
