I leave 3 year olds unsupervised sometimes. At school, when I'm changing one kid's diaper the other children know to prepare for the next activity and sit in the classroom. But that's at school, where things are kid-proofed and there is always an adult within earshot. I wouldn't think to…

Mona is smart AND beautiful, she should be able to go to a love hotel anywhere anytime with anyone she wants. No one says anything about the men who were breaking their marriage vows? Oh that's right, men can't help it. When they get hard they just have to have…

I wish he would stop the morning news too. He always seems half-drunk and just rambles on angrily without a real point. And it's not even funny.

And a lot of "elite" foreigners here put down being an English teacher, but you know what? I'm a company employee, and they're always looking for more to HIRE, not reasons to FIRE. And I earn more per month than probably 90% of these temp workers.

And we need another airport in Kanto....why? How is it a country the size of California needs almost one airport per prefecture?

Well of course the suicide rate is going to rise even higher. I think many people in Japan can't deal with the real world around them and act individually; they always have to be with mommy, or the school, or the company, they have to have a "title". So many…

all the local family restaurants, supermarkets and conbini's in my area of Tokyo are hiring...

In mine too. And around where I work, and everywhere in between. But people are content to go to Hello!Work every day for weeks to find the same kind of job that will fire them…

Well, even if you say ALL fans of Enka, the greater half of them are senior citizens, and when you consider that Jero is the only enka singer to land #4 on the Oricon.....well, Koma didn't have a bright future.

I thought it was common sense to keep both eyes on any child under 5 in a public place but I guess it isn't here, and that's what you get.
