Welcome back to MICR, Toby-san and Ben-chan!!
It was very interesting to hear your holidays stories.

The funniest one was that Toby-san and his friends were waiting for the decoration lights effects for the new year of Tokyo tower, and they kept looking at the Tokyo tower. However, NOTHING WAS HAPPENED.
Then, Togo-san asked Toby-san if Toby-san was sure where he was waiting was in front of the Tokyo tower, not the behind it. All of us were curious if there is the front side and back side for the Tokyo tower *LOL*

I don't know why there was no decoration lights effects for the new year, but I guess there was just the regular Tokyo tower was standing in front of them just like regular days in front of Toby-san and his friends. Tokyo tower might be like:

Maybe Tokyo tower has been upsetting after they built the Tokyo Skytree.

Well. You two are always reliable, Yamaguchi-san and Togo-san ;)
Thank you very much always.

BTW, this is the weekly cover image for MICR FB page:

And I added myself as "Dayoo:"

Thank you very much for the fun time, folks!!
I hope to see you all again next one too!!

Don't Drive and INGRESS

INGRESS is an interesting smartphone game and I have been playing months now. What is INGRESS? Here's a wiki. Ingress (game) via Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ingress_(game) Players have to move around their towns for this game, so some players walk, another players use their bikes, and others drive. But you have to be very careful when you play this game and drive your car at the same time. When you get caught by watching smartphone while your are driving, you will get 1 penalty point on your driver's license and also the ticket cost you 6,000 yen. How do I know about it?

[PolitiC@Nippon] Ryukougo Taisho 2016: Japan’s Most Vogue Words of the Year

Ryukougo Taisho is one of the unique events of Japan. In the end of the year, they choose the buzzing words that everyone is using them in common during the year from TV shows, dramas, news, so on. (Sometime, it's not really used in common, but they pick those words anyway.) Last year, they chose some words from from politic, such as Abe Seiji wo Yurasanai (or "We won't tolerate Abe's politics") SEALDs, the "youth (well, there are some young folks but mostly old folks in their 60s and 70s) group" going against to Abe's politics) and so on.

Blogs and AdSense (2)

Blogs and AdSense http://itoshunsuke.blogspot.jp/2015/07/blogs-and-adsense.html When I see my Adsense page today, I see some numbers!! *Yay* Last time I open this page after years about 10 days ago, I found that I had made only 78 yen, and other numbers on the list were zero yen. But now, I see "+224 yen!!" This is GOOD. I will donate whatever I make from my blogs to the city of Miyako. Then, hopefully the city of Miyako will let people know by saying "The blogger, Ito Shunsuke, from Miyako has donated 10,000 yen!!" on city paper. So, I will get more traffic, and it will make even more money. Then, I probably can donate 100,000 yen next year, and 1,000,000 yen for the following year, so on. When it reach to 10,000,000 yen, I will say *LOL*
