    thepro: I blame Mombusho and the industrial grind, both of which have literally beaten the humanity out of too many people here. Couple that with the "Gimme" generations, 3 or 4 now, and LV bags are worth more than babies.

    While I applaud her efforts, and those of many an unsung Japanese philanthropist who do this kind of work for underprivileged kids overseas, I cringe a bit to see Japan's unkindness at home, to the homeless about town, for example. Or to the folks who need social welfare money just…

    "Police said they are looking into whether the company neglected to follow necessary steps to ensure the safety of workers conducting chemical experiments." Reminds me a little of mixing nuclear fuels in a bucket in Tokaimura!

    "A former prosecutor known to have had links with underworld figures including gangsters, stock speculators and “sokaiya” corporate racketeers." Interesting. Every politician in the country could be covered by that kind of warrant!

    If this is the case, then all of the Upper and Lower Houses of the Diet should all resign in disgrace. Aren't they also in violation of the Constitution for all their visits to Yasukuni? Blinky Ishihara should also resign in disgrace for the same reason.

    WHAT radioactive substance is it? Nothing like getting HALF the facts right! Blows my mind, the lack of security here. I recently received a package by mistake, delivered on a Takyuubin scooter, with a little yellow radiation sticker on the side and a 0120 number to call if I felt…

    That give everyone involved two months to come up with a constructive proposal on how to welcome the crew and at the same time put some positive procedures in place to maintain law and order. Or is it going to be like the BOJ Governor's replacement, and everyone gets caught…

    "No nation is going to stomach a seemingly endless number of cases of murder, rape and theft against its citizenry."

    There is also a new breed of US service wo/man out there too. The Green Card soldier. Also the stop-loss felony-waiver soldier. I dare say there are lots of these…

    Folks, no amount of jaw-ing is going to prevent what actions individuals decide to do, whether alcohol induced or not. One major problem with US forces worldwide is that known convicted felons have received waivers to join as a 'stop-loss' measure. Countless more from developing nations (current case in point)…
