Trump is absurd. There has been a steady increase in American cars in Japan recently. I've lived here a while and I see more and more American cars around here. Especially Jeeps. By the way, the Toyota Camry has more American made parts than any of the GM, Ford or Chrysler cars.

I live in the area where this murder took place. It is frightening. My feeling is there is a murderer out there. If you have a daughter it is scary. Come on Japan Police do something!!!!!!!

Sorry. In Baseball you just keep playing until somebody wins. Basketball is the same. Even American football had sudden death. A 0-0 tie that is decided by penalty kicks is as exciting as watching paint dry. 3 out of four final 16 matches have been decided by penalty kicks. Mexico - Netherlands was by penalty kicks. Did you see the Stanley Cup finals. Any one of those games were immensely more exciting than even one of the Final 16 matches so far.

When you are a promoter you get insurance to cover possible damages. I recommend Lloyds of London. They have a good reputation. Any losses the promoters took is their own fault not Paul's. What a weenie, cry baby attitude.
