TokyoMango on Twitter & Facebook

I'm not crazy about social networking, but I have noticed that I spend more time Twittering and Facebooking (?) when I'm on deadline.

Will the Japanese guy remain the masturbating champ of the world?

This Saturday is the annual Masturbate-a-thon in San Francisco—it's a group masturbation event-slash-competition-slash-fundraiser for the Center for Sex and Culture. The world record holder for "longest time spent masturbating/male" is Masanobu Sato of Tokyo. He masturbated for 9 hours and 33 minutes in 2008, and is back this year to defend his record. Every year, at least a couple guys come from Japan to compete. Anyway... the event is this Saturday, and it should be a lot of fun if anyone wants to check it out!

Video: A dog that plays the piano

I had dinner with childhood friend Tomi from Tokyo last weekend, and he told me he has a dog who looks just like Malcolm that plays the piano. He sent me this video to prove it. Bati is a seasoned pro, but his little sister Luna can't reach the piano so she opts to chew on Tomi's mom's feet and sleeves instead. Tomi's mom, by the way, was my piano teacher when I was in grade school. I think her dog is a better student than I ever was, but oh well.
