And Chinese for the first time may learn that it was the USA that saved their asses by defeating their enemy. But some may still remain ungrateful. Just like the Brits.

Yes, and so busy were the Americans trying to get one up on the communists, they let off a…

More South Indian food in Japan, please! Sick of the naan and 4 types of curry.

Most educated Indians I've come across here are hard workers, multi-lingual, and very easy to get along with. Unfortunately for them, many soon find out that some people don't want to sit next to…

Yes, indeed, getting a taste of your own medicine ain't nice! Japan's refusal to sign the Hague Convention backfires on herself. I'd like to see how Japan helps out this woman.

As more and more Japanese men become 'herbivores' and 'uninterested' in sex with women

Most men will always be…

Plastic surgeries should be forbidden except for victims of accidents and diseases

Come off it! If it's made illegal, the whole Japanese tarento industry would collapse. We'd be left with the likes of Harisenbon and Mitsuura Yasuko.

Apparently it was good enough to win the trophy.

You can win the competition if you fall over 5 times, providing every other skater falls 6 or 7 times.

I can't believe this, she's only getting married to improve her career?

Career? I though you marry pachinko kings for the money. If you want to further your career, you go on a reality show, or pretend that your kid has gone awol in a hot air balloon, or strip…

Electronic dictionaries here for learners of the Japanese language are absolutely terrible. Dictionaries in general have improved though and you're spoilt for choice if your Japanese has reached a certain level.

Wasn't exactly a good performance, with some terrible landings.

And as for the men's, Takahashi was very lucky to get 4th place, falling over several times, and other jumps with some very shaky landings. As usual, when up against the best, all flaws of the Japanese skaters are exposed.
