    Bicycles follow the same rules of the road as cars. As far as I know, it's not required for a car owner to get out and cross the road by foot.

    There are still no details as to what occurred and it's a bit presumptuous, not to mention ageist, to…

    How about the working conditions in Japan tend to lean towards overworking all employees until they are stressed out.

    If a person doesn't have to work, then they probably won't (in those conditions at least). Not everyone loves their job.

    If Japan truly wants to increase it's work force, then…

    For those people that don't think graffiti is a big deal, how would you like it if you just bought a shiny new car and someone did the same thing to your car? Perhaps some wouldn't care (as long as the graffiti was 'cool', but you have no CHOICE as…

    Huh? Do they have ice packs inserted into them or something? How do they work? More importantly, DO they work. Lastly, IF they do work, where the heck can I get a pair if I live in Southern Japan far far away from Tokyo!

    What? Filipinos can't sing? I thought Karaoke was more popular in the Philippines than in Japan!

    I don't really think it's fair to suggest that Japanese men don't have the chutzpah to deal with this situation as there are several things that you are automatically assuming.

    First, you're assuming that the women actually have boyfriends, or husbands. You don't know that. Maybe this guy only targeted…

    As much as it seems to make sense at first (that being a celebrity you have to take incidents like this in stride) I have to say that there should be some sort of line drawn even for (or especially for) famous people.

    YES, they consent to having their photos…

    for obstructing police officers from performing their duties

    Sounds fairly vague. Any REAL reason he was arrested, or was it that he didn't "fully" cooperate with them so they threw in that trumped up charge....
