  I call them "part timers". Visiting at the start of a New Year or when they need something: Like to pass a test or to meet Mr Right, they flock to the temples and shrines in droves.

  The 3 brothers are big fish in a little pond in Japan.So bringing over punchless,no hopers from poor countries, coming just for the paycheck is a low risk,high reward business move unless like the Thai guy last night,who could fight.

  Handing out the free pill leads to immorqal and unnaceptable behaviour in the population. I quit the UK years ago for the very same reasons.

  No you didn't. When people moan about morals and the like for leaving, it's just unadulterated B.S. People leave cuz they had a better opportunity through love or luck. I did through luck.No more,no less.

  Hard to find a pol who hasn't cheated on his wife,but he shoulda given her a few dollars to be quiet about their relationship. Dumping her just before you announce you're running for prez was not a high percentage move.

  I should think that MLB by now realises that Japan is exporting too many Shinjos and not enough Ichiros.

  Getting sick and tired of the biatching and moaning of how Hashimoto is a dictator/one man rule type. Clearly some people have forgotten the last guy to be like that was Koizumi and look how popular he was.The people don't mind,unless you're a civil servant on how he operates, as long as it works and is beneficial.No more,no less.

  Japan's economic demise has lasted nigh on 20 years and would be happening regardless of any European debt crisis.Too often the Japanese govts look to blame others for their incompetence/lack of decisive action in sparking a feasible recovery.

  I thought of the program Jackass on MTV when I read of this. Just something was amiss.

  Glad to see that Osakans had the common sense for change,in order to be rid of the status quo.UNLIKE their snobbish big city jokers in the capital who were happy to re-elect the governor whose proclamation of a "tembatsu" would have had him flung out of office by any legitimate thinking populace.Lead the way Osaka.

  “I wish I could have done it with no one watching but that’s unfortunately not the case. I am very comfortable with where I’m at.”

  Umm... you could have if you'd stayed RETIRED.

  Being that they don't have any kids,they're really like boyfriend and girlfriend,with some official paperwork thrown in.
