He was too scared to remove his hands from the wheel to shift it into neutral, yet he claims to have reached down to pull on the accelerator pedal. Something doesn't add up.

I had a large bag of coins that I wanted to deposit, so I took them to the teller window. She asked me how much was there, and was mildly shocked that I didn't know. I didn't count it because they are the ones with the coin counting machine. The next time I had a bag of coins to deposit and the teller asked me how much was there, with a straight face I told her a ridiculously large amount. She stared at me for several seconds, probably wondering how she was going to reconcile my claim versus the actual value of the coins. She can't come out and call me a liar, can she? Eventually I let her off the hook and told her that I was just joking. She was visibly relieved.

What do you folks think Obama will do if Iran tosses a nuke at Israel? He has always indicated that talking with Mahmoud would be enough to prevent that from happening. What if it isn't?

Ossan -- good point about the mailman. What would happen if you didn't tip? Would you get worse service from the post office? Is that possible?

Yes, the U.S. version wasn't all that angry. More like a "Mildly Annoyed Whopper".

Hmmm... they say that touching your eyes is a very common way to get the flu. Wearing these goggles in public could be as effective as wearing a mask. The tightness of ordinary goggles prevents me from doing it, but this pair just might do the trick.

My favorite part of sakura season is the surrealism of 'pink trees'. So beautiful yet so fleeting; all too soon the green leaves take over and you're left with just a tree. This image is so beautiful I just gotta bust out singing .... "Sakura, sakura, kiiro no sora wa...."

"At a Japanese restaurant". Wow. That's like in Three Amigos when Chevy Chase asked the Mexican lady of the house if they had anything besides Mexican food.
