That almost looks like the Wrigley Field bleachers behind him.

That's what I thought it was until I read his caption.

Bleeding Cubbie Blue since 1985.

Really?

This is actually infield stands… this stadium is 13 years old, and the bleacher is actually grass seats as you see picture above.

I see the difference now.

I’d also volunteer to send you some Cub stuff, but if you don’t want it, please get yourself some soon!

You definitely need a Dome T-shirt, at the very least!

Just buy me a cup of beer when I visit Wrigley…. that’s enough ;-)

118 yen to the dollar?

Japan may be the only place where the dollar goes farther than it did a few years ago. When I was in Japan in 2000 it was about 103 yen to the dollar.
