You can already compile them and make them into a lucrative book about Tsukuba.. Thanks for sharing such Tsukuba stories and tales to the foreign community. Since we can barely understand the language, it is nice to know some tidbits and glimpses into the city we have come to love..in a language we are all familiar with..and from the same viewpoint,that of the gaijin outsider..

Thanks for sharing such Tsukuba stories and
