What about a motorcycle license? In the U.S., it's an endorsement on your regular car license (cars come first in America, motorcycles are an afterthought). Would it be possible just to get a motorcycle license in Japan?

Sorry, but I'm still going to go up in the old 172 whenever I have the time and the weather is nice. No paper napkins or plastic cups, though, so you can relax. ;)

Klein2, point taken. I have never taken the Japanese test. But then, I have never lived in Japan. I just visit for business and the occasional vacation. I typically borrow a car or motorcycle from a friend or business associate if I need to. I've, er, done that in other…

I'm from the US originally, where anyone can get a license, it's a JOKE!

This almost sounds like a threat.

That's the idea. Although, just what Obama would do if not pleased, I don't know. Obviously it's not enough to have an effect on Russia or Iran...

Who have we elected?

What do you mean "we"? I voted for the true moderate, not the far-Left Hugo-Chavez-wannabe who only pretended to be a moderate.
