No, I don't. Reviewers are human beings: they tend to be, say, 75% right, 25% wrong. So, their opinions are not accurate, it's so easy to see that.

You guys saying it's a waste of money, you don't have imagination. I have a friend who is using Ipad as a movie-catalog of his products - he works for a company that sells online English lessons and all the blings one needs to get connected - instead of his old magazine-catalog. He says it's working wonderfully for him, now he can show his clients how a lesson really is and is selling more. Another friend is selling his French Bulldogs puppies using her Ipad. A lot of people will use Ipad's big screen as a tool to improve sales and only as a mp-x player.

Ok, Smith, I believe you because you watched the match. I didn't. Are you Japanese? You are steaming, man. Take it easy, lol. Anyway I wrote about players not playing their best in response to Burakumin's post about Australia vz New Zealand. Not about Japan vs SKorea.

Buraku, Smith: I didn't watch the match, but I believe Japanese players really tried their best, playing home et all. But I just read that Argentina will not use 5 top-players against Canada tonight, to validade what I wrote. I guess what really made the difference for SK was the experience their players got by playing abroad. Well, I am happy I am not a Japanese soccer fan this Monday, eheh. It must be horrible to see the team that represents your country losing, losing and losing.

Japan needs a total revamp: a European/South American coaching from today on, 18 y.o. real talented players brought from base teams. The way they are playing, they could lose to an all-women soccer team, or actually, to my BF's street-soccer team.
Burakumin: all national temams playing friendlies are not doing their best. Who wants to get injured in a friendly 2 weeks before the real thing? Watch England vs Mexico tonight, they will very likeky drink tea and have some nachos while touching the ball.

He had it coming. Being an artist does not mean you can insult other people. Peace and respect should be the first and second parameters for whatever one does. The same for the South Park writters.

Yes, nanda..., average distances. And Zenny. Osaka to Nagoya: 150 km. Nagoya to Tokyo: 220. 370 km, or less. I am in Brazil right now, and Japan is trying to sell Shinkansen for a distance of more than 2,000 km. According to what TV news are saying, French/German trains are more appropriate for Brazil because TGVs are used to run continental distances, and Japanses trains are seen more as a ultra-fast subway. I know it may be a wrong idea, but that's how they see it here.

Europe. Shinkansen is safe, but what could one expect of a system that runs such small distances as 300 km? TGV trains on the other hand, run an average of more than 600 km.

I strongly disagree. This a cliche that bland fashion people like to say, even if they were born yesterday. To know what it was like, you have to connect the fashion with the culture of the 80s - and people tend to miss the 80s. Even my 16 y.o. nephew loves movies, songs, clothes from that era. To me, the real disaster happens when you wear what other people like.
Anyway, this shirt is really shouting, lol. Is is 3D? Gahh, it makes me dizzy. The world is spinning around me!!

Sweet Jesus... may Shinsuke and his mother find peace. This is a lesson on how a minor event - true or not - may lead to an avoidable tragedy.

What I infer from this article is that Japanese are getting poorer, and that Japanese men like to cross-dress while using the net. Is that right?
