Disculpad la brusquedad anterior. Es muy difícil encontrar el enfoque positivo a esto. Pero ahí está, en lo positivo. 35 años buscado el Rescate.

The unique Buddhist temple Otagi Nembutsuji (愛宕念仏寺) deep in a canyon in northwest Arashiyama in Kyōto has had a long and complicated history, but its distinctiveness today stems from the 20th Century when a head priest commissioned the carving of over a thousand stone rakan (羅漢, based on arhats, adept disciples of the Buddha). Each statue is unique, unlike the stereotype of Asians, and some are really funny. The moss in this shady side of the mountain also adds to their character, sometimes like hair.

How to sell stuff to people -

Make it stupid and immature.

I went to Walmart for athletic shoes so I can work out in the heat more comfortably as my feet always get really hot, then start cramping up really badly because of symptoms and nerve damage being aggravated.

I ended up also buying Slim Jims because the package said "6 Feet of Meat," and I got to about 16 mentally and stayed.
