Yeah. It was the Great Buddhist Temple of the Sensei! that you were asleep last nite. Just kidding.Yes, I am a lot of things. I claimed being a Buddhist Jew, and Buddhism is one of the big religions in Japan. So I understand why you would construe me as a Jap.
Though I appreciate Zen Buddhism of Japan for its simplicity and practicality, my wife unilaterally and irrevocably proclaimed our household as Theravada Buddhist of South East Asia.
The decoration and the number of Buddhist artifacts just keeps adding up in my house, so as sometimes when I wake up in the morning, I am stupified for a moment asking myself - "did I fall a sleep in the Temple last night".
Good to know you and the way you approach things.
