    Jeepers, this is small beer. With all the brouhaha you would think he got caught giving contracts to construction companies run by yakuza or something.

    Bebert, I have to disagree with your analysis that legal prostitution would allow more human trafficing. I would expect that if prostitution were legal then only the activities with other illegal activities would stay undergound. The "legal" prostitutes would have cause to report the illegal activity to protect their own…

    Guys, the topic is that the school chose to take down a calender promoting peace so that they would be "neutral." Or, I guess, more "pro war." Which is about as stupid a position as you can take, under the circumstances. Anybody who wants to promote war really hasn't lived…

    There are a lot of people at Japanese hospitals because if you are sick and don't have a private doctor that's where you go. When I first got sick in Ebina (sinus infection) I was told to go to the hospital and that's where I got the treatment that I…

    there is a sake bar in Ebina right down the street from Prime Tower that has some really ancient Japanese matchlock type long arms on the wall. All of these are tagged by the police and checked every so often. But none of them could possibly be fired. It's a…

    "Ever tried reading on line news on the toilet?"

    The iPhone works just fine for that, thanks.

    Don't forget cat box liners and fish wrappers for the print media.

    If there are "strong reactions" from anybody they are just proving themselves to be lunatics. This kind of fanaticism just shows how indefensible the "cause" really is.

    "What a silly, pathetic world we are creating."

    Yes, exactly. Time to stop cowering under the bed and stand up to these religious…

    "Scientific research means you publish your findings"

    "It may have been his wife and kid in the police box seeking refuge from him."

    Yeah, a little more detail would be enlightening. But no matter what this one is right from the stupid book. Talk about begging to be abused. This guy is in big trouble, this is…
