    It sounds good but it might take a while to get yuzu it.

    Yeah, you could add some rice into it afterward and have risotto. Of course that should always be a last risotto.

    Could this all be a bit of clever reverse psychology to gain sympathy? You know, come across as the average good-for-nothing salaryman because all of the voters are the same way and can relate. The Rodney Dangerfield of politics. "I can't get no respect."

    “R136a1 is already middle-aged and has undergone an intense weight loss program.”

    Must have been on the Hollywood Diet - you know, the diet of the stars.

    The American version of the Casio G-Shock, I take it. And a Timex at that. I'd be surprised it these were popular in Japan.

    "Western Woman" -- what is that, someone like Calamity Jane?

    Great. More TV commercials equals money in the bank. What is ECOPIA anyway? And I'm sure they will be coming to Bistro SMAP again.

    I agree with Limboinjapan. The monarchy brings in the bucks. No Buckingham Palace, no bucks. You can't rely on the Beatles alone. And for Japan, yeah, you could have the Last Samurai and Imperial Japan Tour. Tourists dig that stuff.

    The juice, aimed at middle-aged women and other consumer groups who tend to dislike regular tomato drinks,

    Didn't know middle-aged women tend to dislike tomato drinks. So tomato juice is a middle-aged man's drink, is it?

    Spartacus will always be Kirk Douglas in my mind. Long before computer generated troops. Hail Kubrick, hail Super Panavision.

    Does she have backup singers called The Jets? Then it would be Beni and the Jets.

    I've heard of living on the Dole, but this is ridiculous.

    Yeah, great job by the interpreter on CNN. She interpreted his English words "I'm hungry." to the reporters as "He said he was hungry." She didn't translate the rest of it, which was pretty sarcastic. "You guys ask really good questions," he said in Japanese.

    I heard that in India it is called "Migdee". I kind of like "Kenta" for KFC.

    Hey, there are lot of BK shops in the Kanto area. It helps if you can read kanji:

    Where are the signs on the Japanese side saying "We will make Danish butter cookies of the Danes"? Looks like the sushi squad came through.

    I guess if a guy made those kinds of origami, he'd be a "Densho Otoko."
