Great Move JR! Show the way. Smoking is NOT charming at all.

People, everytime I've asked someone to stop smoking where they aren't allowed, I just point to the sign...they look abashed and stop. So, don't be too negative. This is a big move towards making the train (and subways?)…

From my two years in high schools in Yokohama, I can tell you that if cell phones are in the classroom, you will NOT be able to "control" it. You'll be spending your precious time and energy telling the kids to "turn it off" and "put it away" and then…

Pizza with mayo, keep the nori, ika, tako,and canned corn, but hold the sardines. I wonder if the kids used the big plastic squirt bottles? I guess it really is good for "ages 1-100."

I am looking forward to seeing a fully recovered Asa come back and kick big bootie. He's just fascintating and I really support him. Plus he seems to be doing good, smart things with his considerable fortune from sumo.

It's a dog's life. My cat would have none of the dress-up in clothes or wear a hat. It's nice that people feed the local street cats so they look pretty healthy. No roving packs of feral dogs that I see. Well, more on topic, it is part of the…

I wish there was not smoking indoors anywhere. Including internet cafes. Love these places but can't hang out as I have to flee when the first chain smoker lights up. Plus it reeks. Same for reeking smokers sitting next to me on the trains. I move to another seat if…
