Did you know that there is a really long Wiki page about toilet paper orientation?
I hardly ever go there, but my American friend loves "Akihabara", and you can experience it thanks to Google.
Uniqlo made a new calender, this time you can enjoy the cities and sceneries of 47 prefectures in Japan.
Last year, we had the hit song "Toilet goddess". A girl was remembering her late grandma who always said that there is a goddess in the toilet, which is why you should keep it clean. Actually, in feng shui, it's believed that keeping a cleaning toilet is the key to fortune. I am one of those people who likes to clean the toilet.
We have this news today: "cleaning the toilet is related to income" (web translation). People who keep their toilets clean earn more money than those who don't care. Ha ha ha, I guess this is an indication of one's managing abilities and is not related to the toilet god, but it's interesting.
For your info only Shingon and Zen Buddhism have a Toilet Kamisama.

All the best,
