This was when you could\u00a0get lunch\u00a0at McDonald&#8217;s for exactly 500 yen.<\/p>\n<p>It came as a bit of a surprise to me to learn of an upcoming art exhibit of torture drawings by Ozuma Yoko and that the price of admission would be a mere <em>wan coin. <\/em>This information comes to us courtesy of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.osadasteve.com\/top.html\" target=\"_blank\"><strong><font color=\"#0000ff\">Osada Steve<\/font><\/strong><\/a> who further reports that the exhibit will be held from Nov. 2-7 from 12 noon to 10 pm at <a href=\"http:\/\/pl-fs.kir.jp\/pc\/index.html\"><em>Fuzoku Shiryokan<\/em><\/a>.

I&#8217;ve included a picture at the bottom with the link to get you started.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Included with this post<\/strong> is a new gallery. Steve paid a visit to venerable bondage master Yukimura Haruki and came away with some excellent shots of a session featuring two lovelies. Also in the gallery are some shots from this summer&#8217;s performance at the DX Kabukicho theater. And on a lighter note, we have some shots of what appears to be Pippi Longstocking being punished with rope for forgetting to put pickles on someone&#8217;s Big Mac.<\/p>\n<p><strong>FYI<\/strong> &#8212; Stay tuned.
