  1. Wow I never realized how easy it was to pronounce a ridiculous end of the world scenario and get this many people to pay attention to it. Edit: GN to quote Billy Joel, I'd rather laugh with the sinners than cry with the saints, the sinners are much more fun.
  2. I really liked Kyoto/Osaka. They are really close to each other and a bit more laid back than Tokyo. Kyoto is a bit touristy but Osaka has an amazing nightlife and offers all of the weird quarky materialistic things Tokyo does. Kyoto has some amazing temples and sights as well, the forests in the outer part of the city are amazing. Tokyo is really cool as well, lots to do and huge. It's easy to get around anywhere. I guess it's more of what are you looking to get out of it? If you want a massive dose of culture I would go to Kyoto/Osaka. If you want a party hard metro view of Japan I wou

  5. My first year in Japan was last year and it was truly remarkable. If you like deep and light snow along with a lot of good people you will certainly like Japan! Woohoo

  7. I know some people have go pros on here let's see some hiking, biking, gardening, or whatever you do in the summer reports, pics or videos. Here's some of my stuff from biking the other day! hitting a dirt jump run, first time through the line, stoked! Mosley tired out after a long day chasing us down the trails Ahh Utah
  8. TheOrange, I don't know Hiroshima well but if it is hilly or woodsy terrain nearby I would take up mountain biking. I bike all the time and it goes so much faster and is much more efficient than running. Also much easier on the joints overtime! It costs a good amount for a good bike but well worth it! Then if you really get into it start doing some downhill and dirt jumping .

I'm missing it but we are having record bases here in Utah. Had a slide go across the road while I was up at the resort yesterday. The debris must have been 3m high and it didn't even go to the ground! Crazy stuff.
  11. 25 million tons isn't even a fathomable amount. That is insane, my best to anyone that has to clean up all of that.

On a lighter note, I wonder if bin Laden got to see the Royal Wedding and if so - what did he think of Pippa Middleton's arse? I agree 100%. For as many times as we play the superpower card, we sure don't act like a society that has their stuff together.

Worth checking out Utah if the AUD keeps up against ours! Food for thought MB haha fixed it for you Mitch Epic re-post TB So I am headed to the mountain to ski study now.

It's about 3,400 meters or so. Just biked and skied in the same day! Will post a video as soon as I get my own computer back.
  18. Apologize for the novel, it is easy for me to get swayed into anything dealing with Afghanistan-US interaction.

Hahaha, don't think they have to worry about job searching. What with a family business like the Bin Laden's construction one and all, there shouldn't be monetary concerns ever. Someone above said it right. The celebration of death makes us look just as uncivilized as the crazy radicals burning the American flag on 9/11. Looks like we know just how to fuel the fire and keep the perpetual war on terror alive! The unfortunate

I didn't dispute that.....but someone said that "the US has to wake up and realise that (various people).....the Shah of Iran were not a threat to us"....I pointed out that the Shah wasn't removed by US policy, he was in fact installed and backed by US policy. EDIT: Specifically in Europe, Britain and France. O

My uncle lives in tornado alley and when I visited once we got to see an F4 I think it was. Like you said the sky got green and there was GOLF BALL sized hail. I've never heard such a loud sound it felt like people were shooting machine guns next to your ear. Really surreal feeling before the tornado touched down as well.
