Oh and westurn, I do believe the reigning Olympic champs are Argentina ! Though Nigeria took gold in Atlanta a few years back. Japan could truly be in trouble here. And England... interesting viewpoint by Northlondon. However, other sources indicate that England used to take Olympic soccer very seriously. So…

Yes Cleo, I ventured out of the sheltered life I lead today and went in search of the truth. And what I found was most interesting... But first lets be clear, Crocs sells millions of their shoes in the USA, Japan, and other parts of the free world. You have…

"Merkel said it is important for developed countries, including the United States, the world’s biggest polluter, to show a long-term vision to slash emissions, according to the Japanese officials."
Bah to you Merkel ! First, get yer facts right. The USA is not the worlds biggest polluter. In fact, the…

m2gym, you are exactly right:
"Pay attention! Step on, step off. Face the same way as you are moving. Hold the hand rail. And for goodness sake, move away from the escalator when you get off, and don't walk across in front of people getting off! Better yet, take the…

"Here in the US,everyone knows that Japanese cars are the most reliable."
Really ? So why did Consumer Reports refuse to give Japan's largest automobile manufacturer an automatic seal of approval this last year ?
The fact is, Japanese manufacturers are no more reliable than any of the other industry…

Kwaabish... I've read a few stories about a variety of shoes getting caught in escalators, this still doesn't address the issue of the escalator design ! In short, it's not only Crocs that are experiencing this problem ! So why is the METI of Japan going after Crocs ? They…

Try the Pontiac G8 for 2008 ! A near 400hp 6.0L V8 based on the bulletproof and world known Aussie Holden Commodore with a classy but stylish interior with price of around $32,000? Just what the J salaryman should be cruisin' the streets of Osaka in !

Not an "offense" Cleo, but a bit offensive, as we all ain't as dumb as you may think ! Westurn is so right with the observation that Japan is "indeed" a police state ! Fences, officers, cameras, security guards, protective doors that slide down to protect shop windows, mansions and…
