Too bad... the 16 ton Ady would've shattered and gone down in seconds if it had actually collided...
Maybe the Shonan Maru can arm themselves with beanbag/rubber shotgun shells and pepper the Ady's hull with it. Of course, a JCG clipper with 20mm cannons would be more effective against pirates.

Would love to see it shatter and sink!! Too bad the JCG can't pepper it with 20mm rounds like it did to the NK boat a while back. Or maybe they can....

Cherryblossom,
Many portions of the US kicked into Christmas season right after Halloween. Many cities are in the midst of preparing their Christmas Trees also.

Actually, Ichiro speaks decent English, in private and on the field. Most American League All-Star Game players have stated that Ichiro's pre-game pep-talk in the locker room is one of the highlights of the game.
Shigetoshi Hasegawa was also a good example of a Japanese player who spoke good English.

Perhaps it's time for some of the naval forces to start employing Q-ships like the old days. Give the pirates a heavy dose of whoop-ass from cleverly concealed armaments.

Blue Tiger,
I meant Chicago. It's funny how some IOC members let it out that Chicago was actually doomed to go down first early on in the process.

flyingfish:
I take that back. I thought I read in earlier articles from yesterday that the wife went to a Japanese court, but the later articles indicate that she had not...
Sorry about that.

flyingfish,
The Japanese wife supposedly got an annullment of the marriage and obtained custody of the children in a Japanese court. The children are Japanese citizens also (evidenced by both having Japanese passports).
If the father also has Japanese citizenship and if he is physically in Japan, then he may be under jurisdiction of Japanese law and its courts...

If that's the paradise they want, rack up the sanctions and bans on any and all aid to the troll nation.
