You're not really speaking from a particularly applicable position are you? Doesn't seem children are a valid concern of yours.

There are two things I never miss on 4th of July; The fireworks, and the hotdog eating contest. I'm not particularly a fan of hotdogs knowing what parts of the beast go into the grinder, but watching these fools is simply hilarious.

Assuming he liked his job, at least he passed while doing what he enjoyed. I'd hate to kick off at my office.

Christ, its the same rehash of posts every time something like this happens. It just isn't that complicated. Watch your kids or they might get into trouble.

Interesting perspective. I'll take my chances of being run over by a fleeing criminal any day as opposed to being hit by a drunk driver running a red light. At least I might be able to hear the pursuit approaching.

Poor guy must have been tormented?
Doesn't really seem so.

These circumstances definitely raise a bit of suspicion. However, as a husband, I don't think I could leave my wife swinging from the rafter while waiting for the authorities to come over and have a look.

This article seems like a rehash from some months ago and I disagree with it. As a traveling musician who has played in Tokyo several times, we have most always been impressed with the musicianship and creativity of groups we perform with. FatFrenchFool is dead on. If you make a little effort to seek out the right places you can find some really great music. Of course "great music" is hugely subjective to the listeners likes and interests. 90 per cent of the bands in local American bars are completely crap. Just posers with no musical talent who thought it would be cool to form a band.

I'm liking your posts more and more. Your patience is noteworthy if you were able to decypher this post.

This photo brilliantly depicts some of the wonderful variations of Japanese women. The neurotic mousy hikikomori type, and the fatuous sex crazed fashion disaster type. As Fadamor suggests, it'd be fun to see what the runners up submitted.

Until Japan rectifies this situation by signing the Hague convention I see no reason why they should have a seat at the UNSC. Shame on them!

Agree. This article reads like a satiric travel guide, but ends up as some kind of public service announcement.

The only real assured difference is that here in the states this $#!+bird will get what he deserves now that he's been caught.
