  Somebody told me that the dude on the left is actually the CEO of AU, while the one on the right is the CIO. Any truth in this?

  Wonder if that is all he released (yuk). Furthermore, JT forgot to include the guy's full job title FORMER branch manager.

  See you down at HelloWork buddy!!!

  Good point some.
  I seem to remember that Australia's Macquarie group was interested in buying into some of Japan's airports. Macquarie has such assets around the globe. Anyway, the xenophobes of Japan came out of the woodwork and started this whole debate (or not). Anyway, given the current economic situation,…

  Hate the Tigers, however, I loathe the Giants even more. Get ready for endless replays and instant experts on TV telling us how they have been "enthralled" by the Giants this season (after only watching the last couple of games). Also get ready for Ramirez and Lee to get de-pushed…

  Don't know how serious our American cousins are about this, however, if you look at the parental kidnappings page on the FBI website, a number of Japanese sounding names come up. Moreover, in some such cases there are US warrants out for the arrest of such parents.

  The great news go around. What is written here is nothing new. If you have been in Japan long enough, stories such as this end up coming your way. By my estimation the foreign language press concentrates on this issue about once every 18 months and everybody acts shocked, however,…

  No, Abe resigned because of his liver. Actually liver complaints seem to run in his family. His Dad (LDP factional boss back in the '80s) ended up dying of liver failure or some other liver-related complaint.

  Ozawa is also not that healthy, seems to check himself into hospital quite regularly.…

  These sorts of incidents used to be called "Meets and Greets." Lot's of hand-waving and gestures (simulated masxxxxxx) on both sides. Also a good photo opportunity.

  Got to love the flyboys! After such strenous work, its back to the officer's mess for G&Ts all round.

  Might also consider the incident commander for hanging seeing as he left his subordinate out in the open to bleed to death.

  Goodbye Oh-san, although you blotted your copybook as a manager when you decided to pitch out Randy Bass, et. al., you are still the best Japanese hitter of all time. And the only one your US contemporaries seem to know anything about. Nagashima who? Biggest regret is that the exodus…
