Merging with Delta would never work. Where would JAL find enough fat old stewardesses?

Apparantly you've never seen the Delta safety video with "Deltalina." But yeah, we can keep the JAL flight attendants, as they are best feature of that airline. The best seat (with the best view) on a…

I know a Japanese American that says he is in a losing situation all the way around. Becasue he is American raised the is seen as non-Japanese and because he is Japanese all the perceptions of Asian men in the sexual sense is not a good thing as well. I'm…

Perhaps the author mixed up harajuku with shibuya

Actually Harajuku is in the Shibuya Ward, but usually if people are referring to Harajuku they'll specifically say so, while when people think Shibuya they usually think of the area surrounding Shibuya Station like the famous crossing with all the big TV's…

Sorry to disagree, tkoind2, but I hope Japan DOESN'T get a leader like Prez O. Prez O. hasn't done much to change the USA away from Bush policy in his now-six months in office...

That's because he's only been pres for 6 months. You can't expect anyone to change anything…

I actually love driving in Japan, and if I didn't, I could always take the train. Sure the tolls are high, but that is why the roads are smooth because they get repaved every few years (unlike Interstate 5 in Los Angeles). There are plenty of beautiful country roads in…

unsophisticated,politically backward,physically ugly(enviroment and people),xenophobic,educationally inward and shallow,culturally shallow

That description can be the same for the U.S. South.

Actually, one of the reasons why I think Japanese movies and music have been more popular is because American movies and especially music haven't been that good lately. Unlike the 1980's…

I remember around 1992 when there were a lot of tensions between U.S. and Japan, mainly based on economic competition, especially with the auto industry. The movie "Rising Sun" reflected what was going on at the time. Hopefully it won't get that bad again.

Enjoy the nightlife while you can. The city of Tokyo may shut down all the bars in that area and convert it into a Ginza-like shopping district. The City of Atlanta did that with Buckhead.
