If he doesn't perform in the Champions League, they play Madrid next, the club wont see a similar offer again. Too bad he couldn't get out of there and it's also sad that some players are already coming back from Europe after having very little action.

Of course it's animal abuse, where are the dog's shoes and why is he walking, where is the stroller? Also, the clothes don't match the owner's bag and scarf, it's all wrong.

more protein and less carbs what's not to like ;p , they promote it as having less than 600 kcal, the only problem then would be the sodium content, but you are not supposed to eat this stuff everyday right?

No country or culture can claim that the way they celebrate Christmas is the "right" way.

Christians may have one or two things to say about that.

I find it amusing how some marketing fueled traditions are supposed to be 'better' than others. And let them take the decorations the next day, they have their own religious based celebration in shogatsu. Why wait till the wise men arrive.

It is funny though, watching them lining up for some fried chicken or kurisumasu keki, but they line up for everything. I think KFC also sells roast chicken and you can buy fried chicken everywhere nowadays, even at the makku, but nothing beats a nice homemade dinner with some fruitcake and hot chocolate.

Besides who wants to spend 50,000 yen year after year trying to stay on the tech curve?

If only the design was a little different people would already be lining up, otherwise how are the rest going to notice that you have the last model.

It's "Ariyoshi Hiroiki" the guy that makes up silly nicknames. Guess people at JT don't watch much TV, don't blame them though.

This is supposed to be 100% malt with german hops, no low malt, no third category crap, just a cheap import. If it's on par with the local equivalents why not, just another fizzy yellow beer, a cheap one though.

Guess is better to look like innocent idiots than to admit they consumed a banned substance on purpose, just like eating 'drug laced' meat or having 'too much' herbal tea. Good thing is they are still getting banned from the sport.
