Notginger - what would "Michelin regard for Tokyo food" cause you to think that? I know Michelin also produce tyres but the "food" part would surely cause you to think otherwise.

So Terui says “I don’t think Michelin knows anything about Japan", and then it says that he pretty much agrees with their statement that Tokyo is the world's best place to eat. So basically he's lying, or admitting that he too knows nothing about Japan.

How do we know this Toshimitsu Shigemura is really who he says? He may have been kidnapped by the LDP, killed and then replaced with a lookalike who spouts things like Kim Jong Il died 5 years ago and is being replaced by an actor.

"It's safe to say no other nation at these here Olympics have been as succesful as the US"

Think China who have won more gold medals would have something to say about that.

bamboohat - yeah, Family Advocacy commercials are on AFN all the time.

The fact that he got to know her by email is completely irrelavent to the story. If he'd have found her at a Roppongi strip club it wouldn't have been any more relavent.
