    This would make it a lot more convienient for travelers, especially since on some flights you even have to buy your own meals!

    >“WE” seems to be the most important word missing from both the article & the posts.

    Well said! Marriages CAN work, it is really what you put into them. All these hours of working and spending no time with the family gets you what it gets you..distance, resentment, anger, frustration, and eventually nothing. I love my marriage, I love my husband, we work together. We are a team. We have conflicts, but who doesnt. Working through them is a part of growing up and becoming an adult. Too much childishness going on here.

    Where I work (a preschool), the masks really do not do a whole lot of good. Neither did gargling every 30 minutes of the day. Last year, I kid you not, kids wore masks to school EVERYDAY, we gargled, washed hands, set the humidity up to 60%, ventilated, disinfected, you name it. Most of the kids still got sick! Half the class got the flu. Parents blamed us teachers for not separating them enough while they were eating and for making them take off their masks while they were singing. Go figure

    Dressing girls up is just so much fun isn't it?

    Isn't it a little early for induction ceremonies? I always thought they were in April. At least where I work they are.

    I agree Likeitis. This woman handled the situation very well. I had a Japanese man grope me on a flight once and I was terrified about what to do. This was before cell phones, but I did manage to excuse myself and tell a flight attendent to immediately ushered me away from the passanger to the front of the plane (first class) so I would not have to confront the man. He was taken in to custody in Los Angeles where he confessed and apologized, claiming he had "a few drinks too many." I never heard what became of him. But you really do not know what these　people are capable of. With all of the stabbings and murder going on recently, you just never know what could happen.

    Its a shame that kids are still being picked on for having genes that happen to make them look different from others. In my nieghborhood, a pretty significant number of the kids I see are mixed Japanese/some other nationalality. My daughter's class is make up of 20% mixed kids and they are all treated just like everyone else. I think some areas are just worse than others when it comes to discrimination. That is a darn shame.

    Midievaltimes, yes you are correct. I just read on the US embassy website that possession of child porn is not illegal in Japan. They are trying to change that.

    I don't see anything wrong with leaving a 6 year old out of the toilet to use the bathroom. 6 year old boys usually don't go into toilets with their mothers once they get into elementry school, and have you seen those dirty, nasty dinky squatty potties in those parks? How could a mother and a 6 year old boy even fit in one? 6 year olds are pretty big, and pretty darn independent. Many of those parks don't have "family" or handicapped restrooms. I don't understand why people are all over the edge about the fact the woman let her boy stand outside the toilet for a few minutes. Heck, my daugther is 4 years old and already trying to assert her independence about going to the toilet by herself and having her own privacy (I usually make her go with me though and if she goes into a toilet by herself, I make sure she talks to me the whole time).

    Interesting article. My uncle was a cabbie in MN for awhile and the stories he had, he actually made a book out of! Some pretty messed up stuff! I would think if the fares were lowered, more people would be using taxis. The current rate is absolutely awful!

    Too many of these kinds of stories surfacing in Japan nowadays. I don't know how these guys think they won't get caught.

    Maybe it is time for Japan to tap into the worldwide baby formula market.

    Now the streets should be a lot safer since this guy has been arrested. 400 purse snatches...that must accounted for almost all of them in yokohama!

    I would support the death penalty in Japan if it was more humane. For one thing, there needs to be solid and substantial evidence that a heinus crime was committed by that person (not simply a forced "confession"). Next, there needs to be a date set for the execution within the next 5 years at least. If new evidence is brought forward, a retrial needs to be conducted immediately. None of this dragging things out and doing things all of the sudden. That is where I have a problem with it.

    Are there even any baby hatches in Tokyo? Think of all the families waiting to adopt here. This baby could have had a chance.

    I am sure those packages are going to be extremely pricy.

    Hard to say what happened. Perhaps someone could shed some light on what was going on (such as the mother). There are so many cases of kids attacking their parents and vice versa nowadays. I just saw a Mother and daughter beating the crap out of each other at Nishi-Kasai station the other day. They were shoving eachother into walls and photo booths and hitting each other with handbags and umbrellas. Lots of people were trying to break the two apart, but they just kept going at each other.
