At a place that auctions several hundred tunas in a day, this is affecting our business.
Quote of the Day ( 14 )
Ihei Sugita, who deals with visitors to the Tsukiji fish market. From Tuesday, tourists will only be able to watch the tuna auctions from a designated area and entry times are being restricted to between 5 a.m. and 6:15 a.m. (Reuters)

Why would any tourist want to drag themselves out of bed at 5 a.m. just to go to a fish market?

Smartacus - yeah, whenever I've sacrificed my sleep time for some maguro I've always been disappointed.

I took a marine biology course at the university campus on base here in Yokosuka, and one of our lab exercises was a Saturday morning trip to Tsukiji market. I think we (something like 20 students) managed to piss off pretty much the entire market, but in spite of all the dirty looks, it was a pretty cool experience. Sashimi and beer at 10 AM was a new one for me, too.

The only thing that gets me out of bed for maguro at that hour is maguro in bed at that hour.

I don't imagine there's much tuna up there in the loch.

Patience, young Nessie, patience. It takes a while to kick in. Something about them running down their cache, or some such. Just sit back and meditate until it happens. I'm looking forward to the close-up. :-)

Nessie, I think this may help with your avatar problem: http://www.edrugstore.md/Viagra.jsp
And unless that sucker was still flopping, I wouldn't even budge.
Dan,
Been there, done that. Back in the day, 10 a.m. was about the time to wrap up a proper honch crawl. ;-)

Taka how would edrugstore help nessie with her avatar, this is an online pharmacy that sells viagra and other meds. I have read about them on www.edguider.com and they do not help with avatars? Just thought I should point this out.....
