Now if they'd just use manga to teach English, along with morals. The Education Ministry needs to think about this.

She should get the Best Skankist award. Cheat with a married man and you'll actually believe what he says. Duh, if he lies to his wife and cheats her he will you too. Hello mental giant.

Wow Aso is just itching to send the SDF into a fight somewhere. I think he's trying to prove his manhood, much like a male bird of paradise does before it gets its butt kicked by a rival. I've got 2000 yen and a case of beer on the pirates.

Calm down people, all this geezer will have to do is bow real deep, cry some tears, apologize "for being drunk and causing so much trouble" and all will be forgiven. Just another oyaji acting like well, an oyaji. To be expected in this day and age that places so much emphasis on alcohol to have fun. Excuse me I need to go make another drink.

Translation, 500 people with no life lined up to consume crap. Just like a good consumer sheep should because McDonald's says to do so. Lets not forget all the other losers are waiting so they have to as well. Hello lemmings, enjoy your jump off the cliff.

If the big three made decent cars instead of the crap mobiles they do, then they'd sell more. Instead for the last 20 years its been the same plastic body on the same crappy engine, year after year. If they can't compete, then bye bye fellas. I don't blame the unions or the workers, I blame the idiots that have run these companies. Blame starts at the top, will you hire any of these geniuses to run your business?

Sammi 33, it is common sense,
But you see mommy can't shop for all important LV, play Pachinko, or smoke on the train platform and watch junior at the same time. Just yesterday at Nagoya Station my 10 year old daughter saved a 5 year old girl from walking off the train platform. Mom was oblivious smoking at the ash can. We took the girl to her mom and what did mom say, "Dame desu". to the child, and not a even a thank you to my child.
Some people just should not breed, end of story.

It's time for Obama to stop saying hope and change and tell the American what to hope in from his policies and just what he is going to change. Thus far all we have is an adjective and a verb to characterize his ideas, but nothing to attatch either to. Empty words.
Meet the new boss, same as the old boss, we got fooled again.

Being from Chicago, and seeing the state of Chicago schools, this was not the best choice. Actually one of the reasons my wife and I moved to Japan, give our daughter and international education, and the international schools in Nagoya are some of the best in Japan.
Chicago still scores near the bottom of school districts in the USA for scholastic achievement, but is always near the top for drop out rates. Duncan improved none of these during his watch.

For ambulances, what every other nation does: Fine them for making a false emergency call, misuse of emergency services, and charge then all expenses for the ambulance trip. Hospital outpatient services, not alot to do about that, in the States the elderly do the same thing as here, and the homeless in the States use them as an excuse to be off the street.
