It's time to annoy the idiots who celebrate this award and maybe wake a few of them up. Let's organise a "best kimonoka" (Duh, they say Judoka, don't dey?), or "best kimono samyoorai" award for the hollywood celebrity who looks the least embarrassed in a nylon, made-in-china bathrobe resplendant with…

Gravure. Adj.

adaydream,

Sorry for the delay.

If you had bothered to read my post carefully, you would note that I said Wilson thought Obama lied, not that he had proven it. Of course, if I had bothered to read your post more carefully, then I wouldn't have been able to post…

Why did they have to kill it? I think there was no need to do that.

Actually, there prbably was. It's generally accepted that once animals have attacked humans, they are more likely to do so again. I'd imagine that the hunters were probably able to kill in instantaneously and…

adayream,

Wilson DID let everyone know where he thought Obama lied, I believe, with his timing of his unracist, but uncivil outburst. I get the impression he said it stright after Obama promised that illegal immigrants wouldn't have access to any kind of national medical insurance.

Biglittleman,

Jero will be a very good actor because he has shown deep sensitivity while performing traditional japanese songs and bringing tears to the eyes of his audience.

The second part of what you said is true: He is a sensitive singer. I mean, being able to sing enka so soulfully…

To the intelligensia who argue that Norika has no right to promote breatfeeding as she's never done it herself, let me say the following:

I have never been skydiving. Nonetheless, I strongly recommend the use of a parachute rather than an umbrella.

Sounds like she cares about people and has…
