  in keeping with the old-school vibe...

  Oh no you didn't. There ain't nothing old-school about green tea beer.

  Nice to see action to rid the system of monopolies. Now you've got the real job to do, which is to work on that other equally nasty system of collusion between the utility companies who set the rates for consumers to pay.

  Guess someone's going fulfill their dream and move out of their trailer park soon - only to move to a larger and nicer one.

  I'd still take the 1970 Chevy Camaro SS over a Jeep any day of the week. That car had boatloads of power and would quit only for an empty tank of gas.

  Until they add milimeter wave capabilities (that doesn't cost as much as the car itself) - for areas prone to heavy fog / rain - I'm not going to be impressed about this feature.

  A random mugging, and a slow news day. Hardly unique to Japan, and its certainly not the barometer of the level of safety (or danger) of any country.

  Also just like in America, employees in Japan occasionally burst into song.

  Usually (no always) if they are tipped (IE. bribed) - otherwise, give it up as they aren't that committed to their jobs.

  There's got to be an easier way out of jury duty in Japan. She should have used the George Carlin approach to get out of jury duty and claim she knew the defendant had to be guilty, as the police always arrest people guilty of the crimes their accused of.

  Whenever my chips get caught in the rings (and I've used all change), the thought of setting the machine on fire has crossed my mind as well.

  Doesn't this topic keep popping up (and subsequently gets shot down) each time there's regime change?
