I have been coming back many times to read comments about this particular subject for some time but it seems no one is addressing my concern. I'm in my 20s and just don't want to pay for any health insurance/pension. Need to state that I'm not an english teacher. I'm OK without it. Just sdon't need any. Anyway to keep my plan?

Or maybe he just doesn't want another OB

I think I'm the only gaijin who don't find the Yaks as reporter in the mainstream media. All the yaks I know are very decent people who just love justice. There is no deception in the yak world. They keep their word. They are different from those young guys with tattoos on the street who wants to be called yaks. Real yaks don't show off.

Does it mean we shall all turn muslim in the future?

What a contrast between Obama's concession speech and this man's. Why won't he just congratulate Rio?The world is listening to him. I doubt if under this racist, japan will even get an under 17 event. Someone tell him to watch Obama's response to their verdict

Its interesting to know how all the African votes went to Tokyo and not to their the closet pal Rio in the first round. If only some of them had ever lived in Ishihara's Tokyo for at least a week!

And compare that with Obama's 4 hours. Lets have honorable debate not just any debate

can someone please tell us what Bush was doing at the 2008 olympics for which he spent 4 days. The last time i checked, he was tapping some nice girl's in bikini at the back. Did the wars in Iraq and Afg paused for him to make that trip? Or was the economy so good that he could afford to make that trip?

They didn't attend because of the content of the message. They went just to satisfy their curiosity about her. And for some laughs. High school economic students even would allow themselves to be lectured by her let alone professional economists.

4thestate, Which part of the speech are you referring to?

Congrats Sarah, you got another foreign policy experience to your resume.

Alaska's proximity to Russia, Your 'meeting with Columbian President and now, Speech in HK.

However, you were wrong on the causes of the financial crisis. Please come again.

I can see some business opportunity here. Im gonna open used ladies' undies for men shop. Like they have for recycle shops. Inventory would be easy to obtain. Just buy new undies and have them worn by girl volunteers and sometimes men(after all, customers will not know who wore it). Then let them return them unwashed so that I can display in my shop. Business plan development is still in progress. Anyone with any suggestion is much welcomed.

Tamesu,

Does that make it easier? Im having difficulty bringing in my band. Info please

Noborito, You said it all. I have no other words. Ask the average under 30 here in Japan if they even know these boys.

Some JT posters cant quit amazing us. Keep on hating even your country because of the man on top.Even Fox is finding it hard to demonize with this speech.

This shouldn't be news because some where last year I read on bbc Kenyans were doing it

After switching from my 5 Series BMW to bicycle, I'm saving a lot. However, I regret during the raining days. And people in cars look down on you as if you are the poorest thing they ever saw.

This is the first time Im gonna support a death penalty

Plastic Monkey,

Why do u say once a week. This is a daily affair!

The only 'more detail' here is that the suspect might be a gaijin. Any, Tifrancis, I think your analysis is more useful to the cops. I wish I take some clue from that

So Den Den, what is your suggestion? Leave the pirates on free attack spree?

Whilst everyone of you condemn this dude, I congratulate him. If the taxi driver was this stupid, the guy should be set free. He was just smart in times of economic hardship

I salute the writer for his response. I would have made sure I got off at the same stop with this dude and respond to him at some dark corner. Make sure its quite but painful. Some people need not to be let go free.

Can I drink that and drive?

There is only one US president at a time. So rightly says Obama. But when there was attacks in Mumbai, he was quick to condemn. He has been quick in telling his mind on the economy too. What about now? Why the silence. is he actually the house N? Dont make the terrorists words look prophetic

And Wolfpack is telling the gospel truth. Period

Wolfpack, can you do us a favor by naming that democrat happy with this incident?

people starring at me for being a foreigner

Yawning with 180 degrees wide open mouth

Toothpicking

People thinking because I'm foreign, I don't understand even the most basic Japanese thus trying to explain EVERYTHING to me

People who are surprised for my use of chopsticks, like for natto or my Japanese language level

'I wonder if the people of Darfur, Congo or the Gaza have their eating contests too? Sheesh. I don't care how "traditional" some in Japan might think this is, it's still a rather sad commentary on the priorities here. Right down there with diamond-encrusted iPhones, yup'

Not only in those country. Right here in super rich J Land, a lot of people go hungry.

Just waste

''Even bleeding heart liberals can't have a problem with this''

I have always been against the death penalty...but not this one.
