Why does the TMG own a fish market?

And now, the Head Spin Doctor says:

"Arrested U.S. Toyota exec asked father to mail painkiller to Japan

TOKYO (Kyodo) -- An American executive at Toyota Motor Corp. suspected of illegally importing a painkiller considered a narcotic in Japan has told police she asked her father to make the shipment, an investigative source said Thursday.

Tokyo police are considering sending officers to the United States to verify the statement by Julie Hamp, 55, and other aspects of their investigation."

Ummm. Not very original for a SD.

@ Kurobune. After the famous Oz song 'Waltzing Matilda' I guess.

This is most " regretable" but I'm sure they will " sincerely reflect on the situation", "collect all relevant information swiftly " and "take appropriate action speedily ", "to avoid public confusion" - "we will consider forming an expert panel".

The template for all guilty incidents in the archipelago.

So - let's see what Spin-Doctor Hamp can dream up to save herself.

Also if you want to contact Michelin - they have several FB pages. Let's blitz them.

OMG!!

They will have to cancel the 2020 Games now.

Yoyogi Park is veryyy close to the OG venues.

Tears flowing here.

" ...his son because he wasn’t abiding by traditional etiquette when opening and closing the screen doors ..."

What is the traditional etiquette for this action?

Just wants photo-ops.

Why not hold it in Fukushima?

Termites.

I can imagine what Mr A had prepared.

He wanted to discuss baseball, favourite movie, fav food, manga, cherry blossoms, fav flower, railway technology, McD summer menu.

Yawn. Yawn.

@mh: Japan is breaking its a$$ to be 'global' and more 'international'. This is one way to achieve that. Bet that Mr A is peeved cause he had to move of his prepared script. Welcome to the 21st century.

Mr Abe: Welcome to the 21st century.

There's nothing to see here folks.

Move along please.

But it's the rule.

Bravo.

Bravo.

This is most " regretable" but I'm sure they will " sincerely reflect on the situation", "collect all relevant information swiftly " and "take appropriate action speedily ", "to avoid public confusion" - "we will consider forming another expert panel".

@horsefella. Wrong city.

But I agree with your thoughts.

This is most " regretable" but I'm sure he will " sincerely reflect on the situation", "collect all relevant information swiftly " and "take appropriate action speedily ", "to avoid public confusion" - "he should consider forming an expert panel".

So ..... These rods will be moved to a storage area.

Then what?

Bravo.

Fujiya.

Get out the gallows for Peko-chan.

Yes.

Second time for Fujiya.

Gallows.

Gallows or sparkie.

Gallows.

I truly hope that the DOE don't become scapegoats for the tepco parasites.

Bravo.

Gasp.

Um, excuse me!

Is the Pacific Ocean Japan's private nuclear waste dump?
