    Yeah, my kids got excited so I went to their site, and it's just a hook to get you subscribe to their paid cellphone sites. Don't pay a minimum of 105 yen a month to them? Can't audition.

    If he plans to "not engage in any policy talks with U.S. officials," what on earth does he expect to talk with Obama about? The man's a menace!

    It's a tricky thing throwing someone under the bus who is big enough to drag you along with them.

    One issue may be that public toilets in stores and restaurants in Japan are quite small and lack any sound proofing. For most Western toilets, "What happens in the stall stays in the room," but those unloading at, say, Mister Donuts risk broadcasting their activities to nearby tables. Better soundproofing…
