When we r bowing, we get a backache, when people are shaking hands they get a neckache. Mars vs,Venus, short people vs. tall people. It's all good!!!

I can't figure out why so called important people are always trying to make a comeback. Everybody has their "day in the sun" so they should bow out gracefully. Like give PEACE a chance, give the new tarento a chance. It is truly disgusting when people are try to hang in there until the last dog is hung.

That is scary. You mean that the medications I am taking, prescribed by a physician here, could be ecstacy or LSD or Vitamin C?????

Do we even need psychiatrists? I am a health care provider(oral surgeon) and felt most psychiatrists are more psycho than the patients they are treating.

Wow....how can you spend a million yen in one night. I hope that Hakuho and company will phone me and just give me 10,000 yen. I have been waiting all these years for "dialing for dollars" to phone me.

A big "arigato" to the J-cops for finally catching the SOB. I trust that the Japanese judiciary system will deal him in their own way. After all this is Japan, and we basically have no right to lecture to the Japanese, for it is a sovereign nation. If we don't like here, we should all just go home. In any country, one rotten apple spoils the whole bunch. Plain and simple.

Well there are many forms of English. I went to my ancestral homeland in Ireland and could not understand a word my relatives were speaking. West Coast American english is the easiest to understand. End of discussion.

A passenger who doesn't even want to have a pleaseant conversation with u while on a long flight, and he/she is silent as if though they r thinking up of blowing up the plane. Quiet, non-communicative people r the scariest people in the world. I miss Ronald Reagon, the great communicator.

Mr.Yelnats: Let's not make a racial issue out of such a thing. Cops all over the world are just doing their jobs. A racial and a religious war is a nightmare. We all have to get along in this increasingly, small global community. Last thing we need is an agitator.

It truly is a ridiculous question. If it really was him, we should all souround(sic) him and do a citizens arrest. By all, I mean Japanese nationals too. One rotten apple spoils the whole bunch.
