noborito, I'm with you regarding the trains...I love my own personal space in my car when I drive to Tokyo. Beats having some ojisan's pitts in my face, and the spread of disease by these people's inability to shield their mouths when sneezing or coughing in a packed train with the doors closed...Endeth of Sermon.

I understand that these "talents" have virtually zero chance of recognition on the international stage regarding their "celebrity" status, however these useless awards are completely ridiculous...I'm waiting for the best gaijin or most projectile vomiting award to be created...I'm sure I'll be a shoe in for those...

I wonder if after the announcement of the Cove winning, the fishermen of Taiji went into a frenzy and repeatedly grunted, stabbed and slashed at anything in their path, with whatever was in their hand at the time (i.e, chopsticks, bento, meiji chocolate, etc) for a good 5 minutes...

I imagine in a few years after this crazy 3D fad fades, the geniuses who literally "bought" into this hype, will have long term vision problems like in the movie "The Jerk"...

I'm sure they hated every single delicious bite of the repeated orders of chutoro, Ootoro, maguro and oh yeah, whale. Four hours...I don't spend four hours at an Izakaya in Tokyo...I think they may have been converted to carnivores...

2010, doesn't look like a very popular year for Japan on a global scale. Toyota, The cove, Futenma, possible Blue Fin fishing ban, whale "research", corruption and arrest of politicians. It seems the world is being informed of the activities of Japan, first hand...

sem,
Here, I'll help you a bit:
"Imperialism, defined by The Dictionary of Human Geography, is "the creation and maintenance of an unequal economic, cultural and territorial relationship, usually between states and often in the form of an empire, based on domination and subordination."
Please tell me where the IMPERIALISM exists regarding Okinawa?
economic - There is no restriction or bias regarding the economic stance of the military in Okinawa. In fact, the military personnel are robbed off base as their rent fluctuates from tenant to tenant as it's based on rank vice property type, as you better believe there is a trusty US military housing pay chart on all real estate agents desks in Okinawa.
cultural - Well Japan is another country, and regardless of where you are in the world, cultural differences will occur in the region, if you are not from that region therefore, these issues occurs regardless of occupation globally, and is not only isolated to a "US military" presence.
territorial relationship - The only thing that has to happen is Japan has to ask the US to leave. That's all. This will not happen, as it will cost the Japanese far more to provide for their own defense, than have the US presence. And remember, the US didn't simply come to the shores of Okinawa and storm the island at random. There was a little something called WWII that was occuring, and the IMPERIALISM you may be referring to is most probablu better suited to examples such as Nan-King by the IJA.

SemperFi,
Your anti-American views are evident in all your posts. This is clearly about money and the land Futenma occupies, vice the "safety" for the Okinawan people. Those greedy landowners/developers could care less about the "noisy base", they just want the land to develop the property. It would be hilarious if Futenma were to close, and be reinhabited by the JSDF, while flying joint missions with the US. Too Funny. I really think these people do not understand what they're asking for. Close all bases in Okinawa....an insane statement and that would lead to the utter demise for the economy on the island. If they hate the military so much there, then don't take their money at off base establishments, and don't work on the base. Require all US military personnel and their families to only live on base, and you will see the droves of Okinawans crying for the economy. Hey, it already happened when there was a curfew established a few years ago for all military and civilian personnel in Okinawa. The businesses were screaming that they were dying without these customers. Remember, these people built homes around the base, the base wasn't built around the homes.

And for the "ladies" on this post who wish their husbands dead, I wonder how many forget to add the caveat that this rapid departure is preferred ONLY after he leaves a hefty life insurance policy prior to his demise...Vampires, the lot of you...

Ladies, remember not to confuse romance and finance. In order to live in a certain lifestyle, it takes hard work and alot of money. In order to get that money, takes more time and dedication to the office. Therefore, don't ask for Gucci handbags and to stay at home and watch TV all day, and vacations or partying when the slave gets home. Completely spoiled and unrealistic view of life...
