For those JTers out there who still follow that quaint pastime known as "reading books" and this topic is of interest, check out War Without Mercy by John Dower. Excellent analysis of the Pacific War as a racial war, from both sides.

If nothing else, this qualifies it as "fiction" - would never happen in Japan, unless said teacher is son of a former PM or cabinet minster. Kimutaku himself has a bigger chance.

An ex-GF once went to audition as a newsreader for a J TV station. Instead of focusing on her academic qualifications and speaking voice, they focused on her good looks (and other assets)and asked her to instead appear in a bikini with two "comedians".

Actually, this is kind of disappointing. When I read porn filmed at McDonalds in Saitama-tama, I was expecting it to be about a threesome between Ronald, Grimace, and the Hamburglar, with Mayor "I like to watch" McCheese lurking in the background. Maybe one day...

"musical performances are prohibited"? He's okay then, as playing bagpipes is more "screeching of the damned" than legitimate "musical performance".

"Nazi Olympics" is just inappropriate. "Stasi Olympics" is much more apropos.

Poor kid, and poor mom who'll have to live with feeling responsible - whether she is or not, I'm sure she'll feel guilty. And let me add my spite for the ignorami who are more concerned with slamming parents than anything else.

Things look a mite better here now, much better. However, I too miss the windspeed update. Maybe JT could install a windsock outside their HQ and point a webcam at it? I also better look into getting one of those swell gravid avatar thingies.
