The Kimono World’s Dirty Little Secret
found article from 2015: https://www.seattletimes.com/news/tight-times-for-japans-high-end-kimono-creators/
each of these cost $10,000 USD in their prime, was down to $3k-$6k in 2015. Not sure what they cost now (2018).

Hoollleeeeee shit. Their dancing in Kimono's with the whole Geisha vibe at the end. Cultural FAIL.
Human foolishness at its mediocre, BIG money-BIG fish
I don't know if the math is right, but some article on it was saying that it would be cut up into sushi that would go for $50 a piece. It makes me think of Genki Ya, my fav sushi place in Boston. Little hole in the wall in Brookline with no pretension and so silly Caucasian waitresses in kimonos and other nonsense I see in other sushi places that cost far more. The guys behind the sushi bar are skilled and intense. I remember watching one slowly slice a cucumber in a spiral in order to make a long millimeter thin strip which they use in an appetizer roll with smoked salmon and a spicy sauce, topped off with vinegar. The way the man slowly ran the knife along the rolling cucumber showed patience and years of practice honed to real talent.
I don't doubt that this fish will go to some amazing meals. I don't doubt that it will taste amazing. I just doubt it will take as amazing as the full meal I can get at Genki Ya for $50 (for 2 people).
Bed Intruder Song on Shamisen
This guy is really good with the shamisen, he should spring for the geisha make up and kimono next time.
k.d. lang sings "Hallelujah"
I love everything about her, her nature, and this performance. Barefoot, with that kimono type dress, looking sort of frumpy.. but just belting it out. My heart swelled with pride and joy for her, and she's so humble at the end as they gave her a standing ovation. I could really feel the love :} Amazing.

I wish! I thought it was really convenient that my brother was dressed in a kimono, though. Like some cat from Japan.

Bowie is brilliant. Did the Spiders from Mars join you on Halloween?
I can't imagine a President being named Obama!

If you're Arabic, you can't turn Japanese through hard work and effort.
Right, all you need is some masking tape and a kimono.
