javnation: perhaps countries are afraid as you say or perhaps a lack of sober leadership from Washington is more at fault. Bush may be able to bamboozle the American people, but outside America most people could see American foreign policy for what it was and is: a ponzi scheme.

I hope they read "House of the Dead" and gain a better appreciation of how good they got it.

It works for me.

OK sarge, my bad. Though I still wonder at the fuss. With the US in 2 wars and a third on in the offing I am amazed that the wives are becoming part of the calculus - or more technically, jibber-jabber.

Natto on toast with melted cheese on top is just groovy. Or try mixing natto in your next batch of miso soup with ocra. How about natto and macaroni for a delightful lunchtime snack. My favourite is natto on piping hot spuds (or fries).

Natto truly boggles the mind when…

I still prefer Tina Turner when she was the Queen back in the 60s. A lot more edgier than now as natto has become more mainstream.

I wonder if Beat Takeshi will be named Natto King?

What, you think al Quaida has not regrouped? Do tell us why.

As for the war in Iraq there are two main schools of thought, I happen to believe that Bush/Cheney wanted war in the worst way - and they got it.

Now a similar pattern is emerging with…
