Just teach them to sleep on the subway/trains like the rest of the population. Sleep depravation starts early here.

How come the "moral standpoint" only reared its ugly head when he became Chief Cabinet Secretary? Are we to presume he had no morals before yesterday -- like virtually all his counterparts? What a laugh.

How exactly is a 34 year-old woman with one child an expert on raising the declining birth rate? I believe the average fertility rate is now like 1.3 children per woman. She has certainly not demonstrated a commitment to pushing that rate higher. One child per household is not going…

techall...Catching Hawker's killer may be asking too much. But maybe she can catch that pesky monkey that keeps eluding the local keystone cops.

chibaman...actually, I'm with Baboohat on this one. I would prefer to have a real life, even if that means not knowing who any of these three are. Knowing all the 20-something Japanese "talentos" is not something that I particularly would brag about.

nutsagain...are you nuts, again? All bamboohat stated is that because she probably got some "shame" from her family, and possibly could not easily re-marry due to her having a kid and her age, that he can "understand" what she did? (Not to mention the B.S. about the kid reminding her…

Christ, they have to trivilaize everything. Smart and sophicticted doesn't sell, so let's make it juvenile and kawaii. You can be assured I will now drink my Beaujolais in private, as I do not want to in any way be associated with "Becky" and the crowd she will attract.

Absolute rubbish. One guy throws out some raw meet and the whole ward outlaws feeding stray cats? If the problem is crows -- then address that, like by fining all the residents who ignore the current regulations to properly cover their trash. You don't create a new ban to solve…
