    The article, surprisingly, doesn't give the woman's present age; only that she is a former student. She could be, I suppose, 30, but I guess it's fairer to guess she's in her early 20s?

    Everyone's a Shintoist, ROT, in Japan as well as a Buddhist. The trees that are in Japan (and Japan has one of the highest ratios of forested areas to cities among developed nations) are because the government, about 2 centuries ago, ordered it so, not because we Japanese people like…

    Anything that fat tub on the right is in I'll watch (except that Mexican pro-wrestling fiasco.) He's great. He was even great with Bruce Willis in Jackal.

    Modeditors,

    All 16 but one have already

    Modeditors,

    This sentence is screwy,

    They were convicted in the case of the victim whose strangled body was found in August 1967.

    On topic, if they are found to be not guilty, will the government bow and say 'Sorry' or give them a couple of yen for their time…

    Unagidon,

    I don't live in Osaka but I believe there are more than two or three foreigners who may not be able to read Japanese. There aren't that many blind people in Japan but there are those yellow bumps on the…

    If these ads bring down the price to the user, great. If these ads are just another revenue stream for Sony, blah. If these ads don't stop the game - and it says so in the article - great. If these ads are at the beginning and end of a…

    Shocked!

    rjd_jr found something about Japan that isn't praiseworthy!

    On topic:

    With eight LED lights, girls can make themselves up as if they were actresses. They already make themselves up as if they were actresses... going on stage. i.e. heavy, heavy make-up, garish, really. And what's with the lights? So…

    Not to nitpick and be unfair as I always do, but while not many people would take full responsibility for their mistakes - and scribbling your own graffiti on a national treasure certainly applies as a mistake - not scribbling your graffiti on a national treasure could be taken as…
