I bet he is so upset to have to leave this wonderful country

Tmarie, thats why I always carry a brolly with a nice, shiny, pointy spike. Sometimes I feel like the fourth musketeer swashbuckling my way through a tsunami of myopic kamikaze cyclists. Great fun.

On the spot 2000 yen fine for using phone/ holding umbrella/walking the dog/reading manga etc etc etc while cycling. 5000 yen later at koban if you don't have the dosh on you.

LOL

The AKBs could be the next prime minister: 1 week each with 4 weeks off for photo opps. Then they could retire and get a job at Hooters, after some serious surgery...

Seppuku. Show you mean it, liar.

17 years on the run, going down the local izakaya 3 nights a week with her mates, acc to NHK. Mmm, makes one wonder..

Thought I was drunker than in fact I was; but not, it transpires. Hic.

Bag lady looks like a great mom. Leave her alone.

I used to smoke 40 a day. 3 fags (that what cigarettes were called, in the days when gay meant happy) in bed before I got up! Gave up in 1980 when the cost of a pack went up to 70 pence (UK)! I'm not paying that!

Took 5 years to lose the urge. Hardest part was passing on the joints....

Enlighten me please; what's the legal minimum age in this country?

Brown envelopes LOFL

By my calculations, 1961 to 2012 is 51 years. If he had been sentenced to life imprisonment, he would have been out decades ago. so he not only gets a double life imprisonment sentence, he also gets to swing!? Is that next clatter of keys in his cell door his daily riceball, or the hangman?

Cruel and unusual punishment? Unbelievable. Guilty or not, hasn't he paid for it?

Shame on you Japan

Seig Heil Mein Fuhrer

Wow this gay stuff has really got the JT goat. The phrase "get a life" springs to mind? Back to the fridge for another can...

In spite of what he said, I still think Beat is quite cute and sexy. If he changes his mind, in the immortal words of Mr Humphries, "I'm free!" Come out of the closet, big boy...

And why do people with kids want to live on the 11th. floor (or wotever)? Surely there are alternatives

I got done for speeding once in Tokyo. It cost me 80,000 yen. Since then I always observe speed limits, which is an extremely dangerous thing to do due to constant tailgating by drivers who try to intimidate (honking horns, flashing lights, shouting, giving me the finger, punching my window at traffic lights - I always lock my doors from inside) and totally ignore speed limits and most other traffic rules.

The police do nothing but occasionally stand outside their kobans leaning on their big sticks trying to look tough, while all manner of insane driving habits go on right in front of their noses.

Where I work they've already turned off the warm water in the washlets when you wash yer bum. Quite a shock, I can tell you.

Smacks of desperation

Tosser..

GREAT Britain

Fadamor, gimme a super whopper pedantry-burger, with a helping of getalife on the side. And one for me too!

Get yer choppers round that, darlin'

Unspoilt Pacific islands? Sounds great. Can't wait for the package tours.

Would this criticism, slurp, be the pot, slurp, slurp, calling the kettle, slurp, black? Slurp.

Seconded, tmarie;I always get in and out, with family, no probs. Usually have a laugh and a joke with the immigration bloke/blokess. "What d'ya wanna come here for?" he said, last time.

Real beer and football, of course. And friendly people..

Cash buyer sought

I hear he could get a good deal on some island real estate just off Okinawa

The boy left his bag containing his cell phone and bankbook on the bus, police said

Hmmm, gonna be a bit tricky for the police to track him down then. Get Colombo in!

Needs a bit more tongue
