For Relaxing Times, Make It Yaegashi Time

I'm late to the party in noting this, but Morris Yaegashi has returned from Tokyo, hair dyed auburn, toting a backpack filled with gifts. ("Yo, yo, yo," he chortled.) I am now the proud owner of a bottle of Suntory whiskey -- yes, the same beverage that Bill Murray glumly touted in "Lost in Translation." It's wonderful to see Morris, and especially nice that he breezes into town on the heels of Japan's gymnastic triumph. The Jap always did have great timing.

My mother and sister have returned to Lake Wales, where they will not be reading this, since the town still has no electric or phone service. At least the Mesh house has water.
