You don't always get early warnings. And some of the early warnings tend to turn out to be a bit of a dud.
Better safe than sorry though, I guess.

{big long article response because JT only give a cryptic "not posted because it contains potentially offensive content." WTF?}
Another article I read has stated that Motorola will get around to releasing the Xoom in Japan late April some time. However, it will be WiFi only, no 3G. Contrast that with the iPad 2 which is expected March 25th.
Other articles have mentioned that, while nice, the Xoom feels like a first gen product and was rushed out the door to get it to market before the iPad 2 hit the streets.

I am more surprised that they are acting like this the first time this has ever happened. I would be even MORE surprised if it actually WAS the first time this has happened.

Probably "muscats" as in Muscat Grapes or Wine.

Why didn't the airport go into lock down when they noticed her missing? At the very least, they would have (should have) unloaded all the suitcases when she failed to turn up to get her stuff out of the hold. Please tell me they at least did that?

I was thinking the same thing as Maria. Bit of an odd place to take the photo.

This movie's release is still 3 months away here in Japan. Bit early to be making the media circuits around here, isn't it?
Truth be told, "Mr. Baseball" spoke to me more about life in Japan than "Lost in Translation" did. Guess I have been here too long.

Inoue tends to be a LAST name.

The article implies they only IDENTIFIED him from the security tapes, not necessarily caught him in the act. Presumed innocent before proven guilty and all that but he is lucky I didn't catch him around a 4 year old child of mine! Who wouldn't have been left in the care of an older sibling unless they were well into their teens.

It can also refer to the act of dressing and grooming yourself. Word definitions change with age.

Maybe, but there was a drama about it already which aired last night.
No, I did NOT watch it.

The Road was indeed a bit dreary but well acted I suppose. The trailer lead me to believe there would be a lot more action and tension in it but there wasn't a lot of either. I wouldn't call it the worst movie I have ever seen (this year or any other) but it didn't really live up to my expectations. The book is probably better.
Most of the rest of the movies I have seen have been on TV and are a bit oldish now. Nihon Chimbotsu was REALLY bad.
20th Century Boy: Part 3 was pretty good but that is for a different list. Don't recall much of anything else.

What about a man that sleeps with a woman he knows to be married?
One of the morning talk shows yesterday was going in to the timeline of it and it was likely that Asagi wasn't fully divorced from her husband when she took up with this new guy.
But then, this was over 4 years ago. Who really cares?
