If I was a 40 year old hair dresser and married to a hot 28 year old gravure idol, I would bend over backwards and jump through hoops of fire to keep her happy too. More power to the guy for fulfilling his fantasy.

It's actually a good thing that skeptics are questioning this. Lets have the IAEA come in for a real inspection to tell us the truth.

Duhhhh Someone actually wasted money to conduct a long term study on what anyone with a tad of common sense could tell you if you simply asked.

I just watched an interview on JN TV with the owners of the business. There were no life vests on the boat. What the passengers were given was seat type cushions that float. The passengers all used the cushions as zabutans. If a accident happened, as it did, the passengers were expected to place their arms through the seat cushion's straps and float on their backs in the water.

She was depressed for sure. Her mother died last year and she said many times that she wanted to join her because she missed her. Plus, unless your some desperate guy that would settle on any woman, who would want to get involved with her in this soceity. A soft porn model/x-bar girl isn;t someone I want to bring home to mama.

How simple minded the general public seems to be in this country. Almost drone like. Why would anyone be interested in the bla bla life of a 26 year old woman who has made no major imapact on soceity. I bet you could get more personal info for free by just doing a Google search of her name.

My wife told me today that she has read several websites, including Yahoo Japan, saying she will being doing soft porn adult video. Just a stepping stone to the real deal I guess. I really feel bad for the kid in this situation. Hopefully dad steps up and trys to get custody somehow.

I know all of you thing Utada is a great singer, but if you could hear her without all the remixing and back-up singers you would really think differently. Go to one of her concerts and see for yourself, or download some music editing software and separate the tracks. You would be surprised at what you hear.

Marcus Miller, now that is old school. Not sure how many Japanese enjoy good Jazz since I never hear any on the radio. 300 would be a good croud for him considering the location. I would expect much more anywhere else. Koda may have had 600 fans turn out if they had gotteb together.

Utada Hikaru made an attempt in the states with her album Exodus. I said attempt. It only made it to 160 on the US Billboard 200 chart. The single "Devil Inside made it to Billboards Number 1 spot in 2004 for Radio Airplay. Kyu Sakamoto made it big in the US with Sukiyaki. It was number 1 on the "Billboard Hot 100 Singles" in 1963 and it is still the only Japanese song to achieve that rank. It has been estimated that 13 million copies of the song was sold in over 70 countries. There are some good singers out there believe it or not, but they don't have the sex appeal sale look that the Japanese men and women crave. Oh by the way Puffy sucks although they did have a cartoon in the states.

If she wants to mature, then why not go international, Europe or the States, and play for some real crowds. 300 fans WOW!!! What a crowd. I please don't tell me it's a language barrier thing. If the voice and music are good,,,"They will come".
