Sentenced to 3 years

Certificate of Eligibility

Just got some documents from an organisation naming itself the "Ministry of Justice" claiming I have "won" a 3 year visa to Japan which I can take to a dodgy-sounding location down in the Shinagawa docks a short walk away from the Minato Ward Garbage Factory to exchange for an actual visa against the payment of an upfront "fee"

Immigration Bureau Tokyo - Map

Sounds like an unbeatable deal (though if you don't hear back from me in a day or two it means I am probably having some special shoes fitted beneath the waters of Tokyo Bay).

Nice, I'm picking up my 3 year sentence on Friday. Last time I went there, there were a bunch of Yakuza with hostesses hanging out front the detention building. It was precious.
