How is this any different to sending a couple of geisha oversea to some tourist seminar? It is exactly the same, except this is showing a diffent aspect of Japan.

Yes, EXACTLY the same. Except for the whole "culture", as well as "historical" thing...

Stupid question, but..... do they have that "annoying as hell" high pitch voice that most female workers do?

I love driving in Japan for the most part. The one thing I do hate is the "park anywhere" attitude that seems to be so very common. Delivery trucks, people letting out "granny", etc. will park ANYWHERE they want without regard to traffic.

Christ... even an Obama reference in an article about James T. Kirk. This is getting just a bit stupid now...

One pirate vowed the events would not stop them from targeting more ships.

Let this be a warning: If your going to sail thru those waters, you either provide for your own safety or take your chances.

All replies to ransom requests will be returned via US Seal Team.

Should read "Somali pirates vow retaliation after US murders their comrades in cold blood".

Should read "Somali pirates vow retaliation after US kills the first of a long line of dumb idiots with AK-47's taking on USN ships"

I can't believe some people are claiming this will make matters worse.

Well, you know... the killing of pirates is going to boost the recruiting of further pirates.
