Posted in: Lysacek upsets Plushenko for figure skating gold; Takahashi takes bronze See in context

I like Elvis Stojko`s point: "In what other sports do you have to hold back in order to win?" Great comment. Sooner or later figure skating can be out of the Olympics. At all started in 2002, dirts for money.

Posted in: What do you think about the custom in Japan of women giving chocolates to their male co-workers on Valentine’s Day as a form of “obligation,” and then receive chocolates back from the men on White Day See in context

They usually give giri choco to a boss, seldom to a male coworker and almost never to a male subordinate. They are bribe-givers?

Flyfalcon, I heard in the coutryside they still sleep together in one room: grandparents, parents and kids. So much for sex. Not in all houses of course. I hope.

Posted in: Sexless in Japan See in context

After all these years in Japan I noticed the following: Usually when: 1. a marriage where both spouses are Japanese: poor sex, nobody complains. Or looks like "no complains". 2.a marriage where a wife is Japanese, a husband is a foreigner: non-stopping complains from a foreign husband about his sexless wife. 3. a marriage where a wife is a foreign and a husband is Japanese: regular sex, again nobody complains. What possible logical explanations can all this stuff have?

Who said J-men are sexless? J-women? You mean the same women who, according to some posters are sexless after kids, are complainning about their husbands? Jeez... Somebody is lying. The question is who.

Do not blame cops only. Average people here are not bright. They all saw him but failed to notice.

Posted in: Health insurance gets more complicated with new visa law See in context

Work visa can be issued only for full-timers. Full-timers must be enrolled in shakai hoken. This J-government must be logical. If they issue work visas for full-timers, the employers-sponsors must enroll their full-time employees in shakai hoken and present the relevant papers for visa renewals. Now with this new law the J-government again puts all burden on individuals, not on companies.

Posted in: Figure skater Miki Ando rumored to be in love with 3-time divorcee coach See in context

Who started rumors? Japanese press? For what? To create a mess and noise around Japanese skaters is an old PR trick. They are too afraid of Kim Yu-Na. Good luck.

Posted in: Michael Jackson dies of reported cardiac arrest at 50 See in context

He was too rich and too famous for a black guy in the peak of his career in a racist America. They pushed him down, like another black Michael. Yes, he was a freak. But a victim too.
