Jättebra länkar! Antingen så kan vi slänga ut dem på hemsidan, eller så kan vi "portionera" ut deras innehåll till folk. Jag gillade förresten detta: The Shachihoko is a Chinese sea monster, which consists of tiger's head and fish's body. Its body is covered with poisonous stings. It can transform into a tiger when it gets to shore.
A shachihoko is usually swimming near the mouse of a whale. It is watching the whale to keep the law of sea, "a whale may not eat large fish but only small fish." If the whale eat a large fish, the shachihoko will get in its mouse and bite its tongue to kill.
In medieval Japan, fuedal castle-carpenters put a pair of shachihoko statues on the top of castle's roof, just like a gargoyle. Two golden shachihoko of Nagoya castle are very famous.  |

Mmmhmm. Lagom långsökt. Jag skall försöka ta en kik på länkarna så småningom, men hinner inte med det just nu.
