Who was the referee? Some really bad calls/missed calls. Seemed to do his best to help Uzbekistan. The game was OK. Again, Okazaki was great. Was Okubo really offsides on the goal he scored off the crossbar rebound?

Could've been worse. They could've called him Mr. P, or P-san in Japanese I guess. He shouldn't have been stressed, he should just make a name for himself, so he doesn't have to live in his wife's shadow.

My wife and I almost went to Tokyo for this. We are big fans, but we couldn't afford the shinkansen tickets from Hiroshima. If you have not read about him and his controversial career, please do. I think you'll see that he was a true anti-establishment rock and roll performer,…

My mistake, it is a perfect B movie. John Saxon IS in it.

It's a wonderful life was remade with Marlo "That Girl" Thomas in the leading role in 1977. It was called "It Happened One Christmas". Wish it hadn't! "Psycho" was also remade, in 1998, wasn't it? "Magnificent 7" (Originally "7 Samurai") was remade as "Battle Beyond The Stars" with Richard "John…

Maybe Kim has nabbed him and he's now composing poems like "Ode to the Great Leader".

It's sad that this happened, but the plain simple fact is, don't go hiking by yourself. Always go with someone, it's just common sense. I hope they find him safe though.

I also am wary of older drivers, but according to news reports on this case, the older group, the unfortunate ones who passed away, were not at fault. The other vehicle crossed the line and hit them head-on. It seems to me strange that in almost every fatal accident, the…

"near final"!?!?!?! Bwahahahahaha. I agree with JohnBecker, wait until after Service Pack 2. Then a few months later they'll announce Windows 8 coming soon, and delay its release, then announce support for all previous Windows will stop after Windows 8 is released. I really think that XP was a great…

I think Kuwata was 39 years 2 months, or something like that. Good job Takahashi, gives all of us ojisans something to think about.
