gamera

Just curious. How many did they sell? Quote: Originally posted by nicole: It sounds kind of... revolting? My favourite dessert is plain vanilla icecream with ice magic on top. It's a lot cheaper too. Put a tiny bit of rock salt and extra virgin olive oil on top of the vanilla icecream. Interesting harmony. I got it in a TV program.

Can you take the crown cap out of a bottle by your teeth? I've seen a lot foreign people can do that.(Never seen women do that though - only men ) I guess probably I will bleed some from my mouth if I try it. Do I have weaker teeth? Don't say age thing, I still have full teeth of my own!!!

But women's curling seemed to bring the first medal to Japan.

Are you destroying each other, then?

No we don't eat Kamoshika, some eat inoshishi so be careful, bushpig.

I remember one day a pair of kamoshika showed up while I chatted with a guest. Guest: What's that? Gam:They are kamoshika, you don't have them in your country? Guest : hum.. no. Is it yummy, gamera? LOL Don't eat!!!!! I think Japanese can't hunt kamoshika coz they are natural monuments but maybe some nations hunt antelopes to eat?

Yeah, that's really a clear almond. Mine are getting dry almond.

Quote: Originally posted by misorano: I suppose it's Japan's way of saying, "Hey, we didn't win a medal but we ganbarimashita" Very much so, I guess. I think perhaps I can say we are somehow still on samurai spirits. Result is important, BUT process is also. There's some generousity there all the time. BTW miso, in that sentence, We = subject ganbarimashita = verb? lol Funny when some English and Japanese words are used in mixture.

I have Adobe acrobat (not acrobat reader ) and sometimes I need to convert some files to pdf. file using it. As everyone says, yes it's annoying. I wonder probably it's more annoying when you have an access to some "ENGLISH language" pdf.files which are made on some Japanese OS computer. Because when I convert some to English pdf. file, I need to set the pdf. file size at "standard" size which is more than twice bigger than "smallest". If I set it at "smallerest" size, some letters seem to look funny on English OS computer, I have been told. If I need to convert some to Japanese pdf. file,

On that new OS, can we rewrite/edit/delete any files in a CD or DVD? I wonder why we can't edit files saved in a CD or a DVD on XP. I can do that on WinMe or Win98 though. Is that only my problem? Can everyone else edit files saved in a CD or a DVD on XP? I even can not delete files from a CD or a DVD while I am on XP.

They do max 400 ppl a day but it really depends on the weather in each day. So you can't book any beforehand. You just need to go there for receiption and see if it's available of not.

As someone got a debuit with that screen name in this forum, I remember that I was told that Japanese people have almond shaped eyes. If Japanese have almond shaped eyes, what shaped eyes others have? I don't notice the difference really good.

9,500 yen sava. I think it's worth trying to climb up to 2204 meters altitude from 900+some.

Has anyone ever tried helicopter ski? This season I have tried some new things for the first time and would like to try that one as well as it is availble at Tsugaike from March 10th. But I am kinda... acrophobia, not sure I can stay in a helicopter or not - have never ridden on one yet.

A Kuma and a pig can never get tied up to that cute girl in my imagination.

Not me, Kintaro. I've tried Judo and Kendo but no Aikido yet. That is good to concentrate on, isn't it?

Tsondaboy I guess perhaps because you have been used to tako. Not so many people do because not so many food culture have tako in them.

Quote: Originally posted by misorano: To get back on track, why do Japanese count coming 8th or better as some sort of prize? Miso, can not find the clear answer yet. But when I google, this below comes out. What about some golf tournaments? I guess more players can get some prizes not only 8.

Definatelly Hakuba. Most moutains in Japan look kinda "round" shape but mourains here look really sharp.

Is that ikanoshiokara on top of potato?

Huh? If they have your account、they can know how much the transfer every month? I don't think that is really professional way for a bank to ask such a detail to the account holder. No worries, an oyaji innkeeper can never get any attention from his banks

Yeah Bushpig, easy to guess but most J-->E dictionary shows "wild boar" for inoshishi. Which is common? number9 - uh oh 汽車 means car in Chinese? Very confusing to me!

Sorry to hear that Blair. Maybe some say rules are made to be broken, but if there's no rules at all, this world would be kaos. I totally agree to the opinion of _spud. Quote: Originally posted by _spud: If someone wanted to play in my house then they would play to my rules. It is as simple as that. Good luck Blair! And remember: your house, your rules. Also, I really hope that has not caused any stress, frustration to you, Blair.

Quote: Originally posted by number9: you can have written communication much more easily with the Chinese than non-kanji users. Sometimes I also do that written communication with guests from Chinese culture like from HongKong, Singapore etc. But a lot often their hand writing kanji are pretty differet from mine, sometimes hard to recognize which kanji they write. And because of gramatical difference, not 100% understandable. Chinese sentence is like English - S + V + O + C order. Japanese sentence is....... too flexible That's why when Japanese learn Chinese (Kanbun) in schoo

I guess maybe tree runs could mean #1 Courses with more trees like "tanne no mori" at Shiga kogen ichinose area. #2 To ski/snowboard down to the bottom passing through inbetween trees which is a lot of out of courses full of pow ?
