Roughneck... she has to live in the US. She is not. She violated a custody order.

Um, don't think the Iranians (at least those in power) will look too fondly on you becoming a role model there. But couple that attitude with very little knowledge about the world outside of Japan and it might just work.

my2sense you showed your lack of class in that final post. I was almost agreeing with you, but you've gone and blown it. Osaka, You Rocka! Love the grit. The girl's have sass. Go Tigers, Go!

Me and a buddy created a sport called TP Ball, where you get a glass of water, dip in a tissue and then try to hit a target across the space you're in. All it costs is a box of kleenex and the whack of beer you need to help your aim.

‘‘Every night, I could hardly sleep because of the sensational media coverage of the incident,’’ Iinuma was quoted as telling the investigators.
Exactly what does he mean by sensational? Sick man.

All this mention of "people" supporting this freak. It is one person... not more than one. Read the poster's name people.

Well, if there is no killing then how can it be science?
Plus the Japanese don't like the way those whales have been eyeing their women.

"I only enjoy good documentaries." That is rich. I only enjoy delicious food. I don't enjoy bad documentaries or non-delicious food. Well said.

In The Cove, the director and producers actually take the time to interview "regular" Japanese people to see if they are aware of the dolphin issue and the fact that much of the "whale" meat being served up in Japan is actually dolphin. So, it seems to be an issue that the Japanese themselves know little about, with the exception of a few red-neck equivalents. I think most Japanese would be sickened by the information found in The Cove. I hope at least. Although, the standard response to outside criticism of Japan and its "culture" tend to be a little bit nationalistic. A lot of "Oh, look at us" and then when people do and don't like what they see it becomes "Who asked you anyway? Stay out if you don't like it."

Great film. Hope the Japanese take a good long look at their eating habits.

And I thought that group was gathering in support of Japanese NAMBLA. Thought it was a little to sparse, especially in Japan. But it is about whaling.
