Wow that doesn't jive with the resort ads you see in the States. Seriously Jamaica is a dangerous place, those fancy resorts are all fenced off from the real world.

Sarge: Good one, there are a few posters on here that would make that comment as a serious statement. The Indy 500 was always sort of the un-official kickoff to summer when I was a kid. Good luck to Mutoh and all the racers.

I hope Japan can get it together in the very short time before the World Cup but I have my doubts. When I first saw the divisions I had some hope that Japan might do ok but not the way they're playing.

Ah Detroit, America's black eye. This is a shame but if they weren't living ghetto fabulous the cops wouldn't have been there in the first place. They were there looking for a murderer weren't they?

Ah, the smoking Nazis are in a lather about banning tobacco again. That will work great, see how well it worked with booze in the US. These are nothing new and I still prefer a real smoke but if I can use this thing on an airplane they might sell me.

Looks like this is the new crazy crime dujour in China. Let's hope we don't start seeing copycats elsewhere.

She's cute, I'm a leg man so lack of double D chest is a bonus in my book. She's built like my wife but taller.

Funny stories, in my neigborhood no one ever moves in. It's all the same Obasans that have lived here since my wife was a little girl. It's pretty nice, people watch out for our house and yell at the kids if they're doing something stupid. It's kinda like living in a neighborhood full of your favorite grandmas and great aunts.

Great pic, we put our koinobori out on Sunday in anticipation. By the way isn't it "boy's day" as opposed to "children's day"?

It's a little late for that. The feds should have immediately taken control of the site instead of letting BP screw around and minimize the situation for a week.

I think Anmerica needs to just go back to isolationism. Bring the troops home and refuse economic or military aid to anyone period. If we're not appreciated, then we'll go home and when you need us we won't be sending troops or aid.

Yo JUCO Network, would you want China in your backyard? I'm all for the US pulling out of Japan but first the Japanese need to build up their army. I don't see the will or the money to make that happen and I have zero respect for Okinawans who somehow think that no one sees Japan as a target. Oh and since when did Japan treat Okinawans like citizens except maybe second class citizens. Maybe we should just pull out and leave Japan to its own devices. When that happens of course I will be relocating back to the States because nothing I've seen from Japan shows they are ready or able to fend for themselves.
