The author of this post, Rick Newton, and I spent a year in neighbouring Japanese villages, visiting o-furo, eating fish eggs and teaching English.
Rick continues to traverse the globe and share his insights — and his imagination — of a land still shrouded by clouds, secrecy and immense passion and pride. Also the land of Ultraman, Hello Kitty and Gojira — or as he’s known in western social circles, Godzilla.
Here is Rick’s off-the-record no-holds-barred tell-all confab with the never-surpassed hero of the silver screen, Godzilla.

Thanks for the props, Lois!
Takes you back, doesn’t it! Remember how we used to avoid power lines and those big, round gas and LP storage tanks in Japan, knowing the Big Guy’s fondness for stomping round through such things?
