You know what the call a Quarter Pounder in France? Nothing. They got the metric system over there, they wouldn't know what the bleep a Quarter Pounder is, ha ha ha!

Is that a fact or are you quoting Pulp Fiction? How about a Royale with cheese?

Interesting, I was talking to J friend tonight and she said they are standing in line to win the lottery. If one of them get a seat in turn they would sell it to a media outlet for like 100,000+ JPY.

I will miss the old tower......replacing the existing 333-meter Tokyo Tower in Minato Ward Sad day !!!!!!

Correct me if I wrong but I think Tokyo Tower will remain as a landmark but not used for it's intended purpose, NHK broadcasting.

Inflexibility and stubbornness still frustrate me.

Will still be here in Japan long after we become ash or six feet under!
