    huh ??? Try this on fer size... from wikipedia:

    "Pole dancing is a form of dancing/gymnastics. It involves dancing sensually with a vertical pole and is often used in strip clubs and gentlemen's clubs, although more recently artistic pole dancing (Chinese poles) is used in cabaret/circus and stage performance…

    In the US we have true free markets, everyone can afford to live the good life. You don`t see suffering due to expensive prices in the States, in Japan the poverty is everywhere.

    That's right. Japan should ease up a bit on the piracy laws. In the States, although I…

    I mean, just who exactly was collecting this data, and how ? And are the same standards applied around the world ? You'd be surprised at how many nations openly admited their co2 numbers were fudged during the run-up to the kyoto protocol ! Having lived in Japan for…

    More nonsense from westurn:

    And at almost $20 bucks a ticket... by god there better be a seat available !!!

    uh, where the hell did you get $20? Last I heard, the dollar was trading at 104, so that would mean 1800 yen is roughly 17 dollars!

    Oh, and I…

    Westurn's facts are obviously off:

    A bowl of Ramen in Tokyo ??? 700-900 yen ($6.80-$8.80) !

    Wrong! Cheapest bowl of ramen in Tokyo? 180 yen. For a decent bowl? 300-500 yen (even cheaper when you get them from the little stand-up eki shops) For better quality ramen? 750-900 yen.

    many of the best players in the world don't participate, which hugely devalues the value of an Olympic medal and the credibility of the event.

    Good point, but the true original spirit of the Olympics was to pit the best "amateur" players from around the globe. Which is why sports…

    This is an interesting and honest post about GM:

    The older versions of GM were great. Whatever happened to them. Nowadays, the GM models stink and you end up not getting what you pay for.

    Year upon year, you see five of the top 20 selling cars (Camry,…

    Good Jorb, Good post. It seems that Japan is quite on par with the rest of the world in terms of trade. Australia, Russia, and Canada have even higher trade tarrif rates imposed, even though they are not deemed "developing countries". Of course, less developed countries such as India (32.0%)…

    Not impressed ! Japan still has a long way to go before it trades "evenly" and fairly with its trading partners. This is nothing more than a reflection of outlandish fuel prices as mentioned. Japan's doors are still closed to open and unfettered trade !
