We used to have an old tank of a car when I was a kid. We named it bosley after Tom. I reckon they are the same age but that old car gave up years ago. Thanks Tom for the laughs growing up.

You'd be lucky to be given a hoot about in there rather than seeing any hooters. A fake hoot maybe, but not a full beam hooter anywhere.

The weak dollar is great for the US. Can bring manufacturing home again, create jobs, and export quality American goods and get the U.S economy humming again.

Oh boy. I just moved into a cheaper apartment due to getting my salary in dollars, pounds, and euros. If this keeps up I will be sleeping under a bridge and drinking SPARX chi-hi.

Don't think I will make the special trip from Osaka to see girls dress the same was they do in the street.

It's true Zenny but if I was a straight recruit and I knew openly gay recruits were watching me in the shower I for one would suddenly be aware about how women feel when I leer at them and for seconds may stop enjoying soaping withnmy comrades.

I wonder how this will work come shower time. Female and male recruits are not allowed to shower or sleep in the same place. Does this mean that their will be special quarters for gays?

My friends kid screams and yells in distress if he does not get what he wants or any other reason you can think off. One day he was real naughty so was sent to his room. The kid scream out "save me, save me" to people passing by and one of the neighbors called the landlord. The kid needs a good kick in pants. I say just don't overreact. Japanese kids are the worst drama queens I have ever seen, especially the boys. I think you will find that kids with bruises learned not to scream in distress. Those are the tough cases to spot unless you are in direct contact such as teachers.

But this was suicide for sure. A favored method by Japanese as they will be noticed at the point of death by the inconvenience to people, mess, and money the family must pay plus media exposure. If you take away train suicide, people may start to leap off tall buildings with pedestrians getting caught up in it.

Another point is that he has to pay compensation to her family who probably sold her to a brothel in the first place. Crazy courts. Her family should be on trial too.

Lol! She has power behind her voice? Voice synthesizer power maybe. Now Sarah Vaughan has power behind her voice. That is an example of a real singer, not shallow pop singer

I am Italian. I hug my friends when I see them, I sometimes kiss my close friends. Just a peck. No lips. But if I meet one of my friends ladies or wife who is Japanese, I bow or seldom shake hands. I hate sleazy guys who use the "westerners kiss and hug" thing as an excuse to touch and kiss another guys attractive GF, wife, or attractive single girls when there is no relationship present. Its disrespectful. My GF runs to me for protection when guys try to do that to her. the look on their rejected faces is priceless. None of my male friends kiss or hug others guys wives or girlfriends. It's not appropriate, especially in Japan.
Posted in: How do you feel when someone you are greeting wants to hug you or kiss you on the cheek? When is it appropriate and do you think the custom can be misinterpreted in some cultures, such as Japan, for example?

Baseball bat? The guy must have been lubed up for the night already. There is no way that's going in dry. sarge, I agree. A homosexual is not more important than any other victim of a hate crime.
