TV is something of the past or for old people. I want to watch whenever I want to want to watch and I don't want TV stations to dictate me at what time I should watch something.

Finally someone who can actually sing is winning this event. Well deserved, Adele. I am happy to see that people are understanding again what a real singer should sound like.

So, how does this work? I will give the chocolates to HIM and then he will sing a song to me or will they create an extra Love Song Singing Day and make it into the newest public holiday?

Very interesting and it confirms my thoughts too. Sorting garbage is just garbage. Anyway, thanks a lot for taking care of our garbage day in and day out.

Maybe this headline should read: The Sapporo Snow Festival is melting away. With +5C, they had better bring the beer festival.

Even without snow, people fall off roofs. Roofs are dangerous. And since there are many people climbing up on roofs, it is only natural that many people will fall off. I just can't understand why the roofs are not steep in the first place. It has been snowing in Tohoku for centuries after all. You would think they would construct their houses with steep roofs by now.

Gaijintraveller is completely right, artificial sweeteners are worse. I'd rather drink a normal Coke than a Zero Coke. Instead of using all these bad sweeteners and sugars, the should put palm sugar into everything. Palm sugar is a nutrient-rich, low-glycemic crystalline sweetener that looks, tastes, dissolves and melts almost exactly like sugar, but it's completely natural and unrefined. It's acquired from the flowers growing high on coconut trees, which are opened to collect their liquid flower nectar. This nectar is then air-dried to form a crystalline sugar that's naturally brown in color and naturally rich in a number of key vitamins, minerals and phytonutrients, including potassium, zinc, iron, and vitamins B1, B2, B3 and B6.
It is never refined or bleached like white sugar. So the nutrients it was made with are still there. That's rare for sweeteners, most of which are highly refined

Shouldn't that be 'White off'? Anyway, looks the same than in front of my house. I have a steep roof though but the noise is just scary when the snow falls down.

Oh, come on gals, the men are shy because we make them feel shy. Just approach any man and ask him direct questions and he won't be shy anymore because he won't have a choice anymore. Just ask: Will you marry me?

I don't think we should think so deeply about it. After all, if I would truly love all the men I gave chocolates to, my husband would sue me for having affairs. So, why not, on an otherwise boring and dull day, bring in some warmth into the office. It is all about having good relationships with other people.

Japan must get its act together and build more facilities for the elderly. This will happen again and again otherwise.
