    Betting, actually, if you had the money for this kind of trip you wouldn't set up a trip like this by yourself. Your travel agent would. And your agent would probably know how to rent a private jet for the European leg. I'm thinking of David Letterman who hasn't set…

    Mr. Sato needs to be jailed for a few years; probably won't. However, during Golden Week I saw a 10-year-old hit a 5-year-old (I'm assuming they're brothers). When dad found out, he, you guessed it, hit the 10-year-old. Now, where do you think the 10-year-old learned to hit? And where…

    NeoJamal, I almost understood what you wrote, but not quite.

    On topic, will the right wingers in and out of office jump on this like they did "Yasukuni"? Will Hatoyama see it? If he sees it will he repeat that there are "enough checks and balances"?

    My first thought would be the old lifeguard training: throw row or go. Throw something at him, bust him with something, or try to take the knife away. Best to throw, as you're out of range of a knife.

    I hope this 17-year-old gets some badly needed mental health support,…

    capone,

    realist is right about the price. It isn't market forces, it's government forces, specifially, Fukuda who reinstated the 25 yen tax - that's 30 yen to you and me. Later this summer, say, a day before Obon, then the market forces will jack the price up another 10 to…

    In another article about this guy in another country, they give his name and say that he surfed porn sites for up to four hours a day. So I think the 780,000 number was pulled out of someone's ... hat.

    I saw her on the telly once but she wasn't speed eating so much as just eating. And eating. And eating. I think she ate all the items on the menu at a raamen shop or something. But not speedily. Is she a speed eater or just a big eater?

    I was on a train that was 200% capacity once; the aisles were crammed with people and babies were crying. I somehow managed to get a seat for about five seconds, then I saw a very pregnant woman standing. I offered her my seat - she refused - I said…
